Re: Will Hatton Retire if he gets beaten??
yep we're speculating about a fight that will only happen if Hatton loses
I don't think he will lose to Manny - Manny comes forward unlike PBF and ,unlike Oscar, Ricky will be in fantastic shape.
And i don't know that kmuch about Kotelnik either
Re: Will Hatton Retire if he gets beaten??
Hatton is gonna lose alright. He will fire Floyd Sr and will reunite with Graham for a farewell fight in UK.

Yah man, PAC - DLH was zero evidence of PAC's ability at a higher weight. Any top 50 welterweight could have beaten DLH that day, along with a few JWWs. Hatton is fighting a smaller guy here, so him and his fans shouldn't put too much stock in this fight. Maybe a should fight a real JWW ffs. If there are any that is.
It's become a circus, it really has. Pac hasn't really taken a proper punch above 130 pounds and here he is being paraded as someone who he is not. He beat a shell of an Oscar. A walking zombie! It took Mayweather at his very best to finally get Hatton out of there, and let's not forget Hatton losing his cool. And it's on those two fights that these outlandish expectations are being built. The odds are ridiculous, and the writers seem to have been caught up by it all. It reminds me somewhat of Calzaghe: Lacy in this regard.
It was only a year ago that Marquez outboxed Manny over twelve. Beating Diaz and an old Oscar do not suggest to me a fighter that has suddenly become unbeatable. Like Calzaghe all those years ago, I can see a lot of people being proved very wrong.
Keep on believing in Hatton Miles. Just don't put down Manny coz Pac-DLH was really something. I even doubted about Pac when he fought DLH but he proved many of us wrong. On May 3(Philippine date), my fearless prediction: Pac will be installed among the top ten in all time greats.:cool:

No chance he will ever be installed top ten greats. But you think a win over Hatton would put him as a top ten great?? lol
Re: Will Hatton Retire if he gets beaten??
I hope he does not retire but if he gets a sound beating then it might shorten his career to 1 fight and out after Pac in the UK.
Re: Will Hatton Retire if he gets beaten??
If Pac does to him what Ricky did to Kostya, then he just might retire.
Thing is, I think Hatton will spark Pac in a Shocker of Shockers.
Re: Will Hatton Retire if he gets beaten??
pacman will ko hatton in the 6th and hatton wont retire or have farwell fight a expect him to have a few gd more fights he will only have lost 2 fight to 2 p4p kings
Re: Will Hatton Retire if he gets beaten??
I reckon he wouldnt retire but i think its certainly a possibility. I remember how down he was after the Maywether loss. Very down, and hes saying hes close to retirement now as it is.
But if he was to lose the fight id love to see him goin out on would be against Witter. Hes mouthed off at Rickie for years and we all know why Hattons ignored him, 1 hed demolish Witter easy and 2 he had much bigger richer fish to fry.
Or the other would be to face who ever is ranked the very best in the division (barr Pacman) just to show some people hes not just living off the Tzu win and hasnt actually faced a decent Lightwelter since that night.
Re: Will Hatton Retire if he gets beaten??
if hatton loses i'd like a farewell fight with oscar though at what weight they'd fight at would be an issue. i also wouldn't mind him fighting bradley.

Yes could make sense you reckon Franky would let Kahn fight Hatton?
Hatton said he never would fight Khan but Frank said he will see if he can get the fight next year, so i dunno if they will or not.:confused:
Re: Will Hatton Retire if he gets beaten??
I dont think Hatton needs to retire if he loses. Hatton can make a good living fighting up and comers and moving 1 class up or down. Pac may not even stay at 140 and if that is the case Hatton can still reign. I dont have much confidence in the rest of the field at 140.
Hatton will not get blown out in this fight so even if he loses he will be plenty marketable......even a rematch.
Hatton has another couple years in him win or lose.
Re: Will Hatton Retire if he gets beaten??
there is a very strong chance that hatton will retire or be near to it.
lets consider who has retired after or shortly after.
marco antonio barrera
erik morales (said no mas after only 3 rounds)
oscar de la hoya (said no mas after 8 rounds)
it all depends on just how bad a beating hatton takes.
if hatton comes in fighting with his chin in the air, manny will knock him out.
i can visualize hatton quiting on his stool if he is not knocked out before the 8th round

i cant see hatton quiting on his stool,ur gonna have to knock him out to stop him,i seriously dont see why hatton is getting over looked here tho. i think after a couple of rounds the pacman camp r gonna be a bit shocked with how good hatton is. i no strengh isnt everything but hatton is TOO strong for manny. i think this fight will shock a few people.
Re: Will Hatton Retire if he gets beaten??
Hatton will win but if he does lose he will fight at least one more time in the UK. This farewell fight could be Amir, should he win his next alphabet title fight.

Stop talking crap, Hatton still has something left in the tank, probably more than Morales had in his first fight with Manny.
