GBP trying to lure Hatton into a fight with Morales, HA...
According to the good old Manchester Evening News this morning, GBP are trying to tempt Hatton into a two fight deal with Erik Morales mentioned. What a joke............... I really hope this doesn't happen for the sake of my memories of both fighters.... I'll try add a link during lunch when my company internet allows me access to it, unless anyone else can add it.....

Just hope Ricky stays in the pub and not in the ring.
Re: GBP trying to lure Hatton into a fight with Morales, HA...
I could easily imagine that... Erik's officially back and it's just a matter of time before Hatton does as well. I could easily imagine Hatton in a tune-up match and then fighting Morales... it would spark interest, therefore sell and allow everybody to make millions so I am certain it will happen, the only missing pawn is the official Hatton return... which is a matter of time.

Hatton with a brutal 1st round knockout
Morales to next be seen on oprah talking about dealing with being paralised
Re: GBP trying to lure Hatton into a fight with Morales, HA...
hatton does big business. And a fight with morales would sell. But I hope it don't happen. They've both done great things in the sport.but I think they retire. Golden boy just looking at pound signs and not fighters safety.

Judging by Hattons announcement and then all the rumours of him giving up again it's obvious his heart isn't in it. He might as well just give it a rest, fighting Morales at this stage isn't really going to mean anything.

Apparently it was a two fight deal with Morales and JMM but Hatton has turned it down. Hopefully that's it for him and he's going to retire.

I think it's a good fight actually. Both guys are past there prime, they'd fight around 147lbs, Morales won't back down from a good fight. I think this would be fun while it lasted.
Seems similar to Marquez-Vazquez 4 to me, both guys are used up and this is a good payday for everybody involved.
Re: GBP trying to lure Hatton into a fight with Morales, HA...
I think of this fight in the same vein as Gatti-Ward. Not the 2 greatest warriors, but they would bat the hell out of each other and make a FOTY candidate. Sometimes scraps make the best scraps.

Two fight deal you say?
So he beats Morales who do you reckon after that my money is on Duran at Wembley.
