Interesting.
Can't imagine that happening seen as though he got sparked in his last fight.
I know it sounds crazy and fighters are supposed to be super-human and all that, but
he might just have actually been ill.
But it's interesting, as Saddo said, these things normally get kept under wraps.
Maybe he's finished ;)

Who knows....
Stranger things have happened.
Wouldn't be surprised if he did call it a day after the fight tbh. There aint that much left for him. He's proved he's the best 140lb fighter around and he lost to Mayweather. He's made his money
Re: Hatton struggling with a virus fight goes on!
I'm sure its really not that big of deal... Hatton will be victorious in this fight and hopefully look good doing it

Don't think that will happen.
Hatton has signed with Golden Boy and a three fight HBO deal that starts with powderpuff (why he's on the undercard) later in the year (they rejected the Lazcano fight ;)).
One of those fights is gauranteed to be a STAR name (Pac?).
So.. he wont be quitting anytime soon with the HUGE money on offer ;)

Forgot about that. Damn. The Paulie - N'Dou fight is even more pointless than the Hatton - Lazcano one.
I knew he was mooted to fight Paulie but i'm still wondering how he feels if he looks absolute shite!
I don't think you far wrong with Pac. How do you think Pac would cope at 140? He seems to have the frame to cope with it.

Not sure how Pac will do at 140 but if he fights Hatton - and Hatton hasn't totally lost it - he'll get slaughtered. I bet Ricky would LOVE that fight. ;)

I'd expect Pac to carry the weight well. He seems to have the frame for it. Only problem is, Hatton's core strength should be much stronger so Hatton would most likely be able to bully him.
I don't think Pac is a natural bantam/feather, i actually think he's under nourished. Bit like Mayweather when he was down at 130.
Pac fills out quite easily. I'd give him a chance. It would be an exciting fight imo.
Re: Hatton struggling with a virus fight goes on!
He's still got 10 days before the fight. Whats up with all the sick European fighters? Must be flu season over there. Good to hear he isn't flaking out, he should recover in time.
Re: Hatton struggling with a virus fight goes on!
At one point Lazcano was a better fighter than Hatton. Hatton grew rather fast and Juan fell rather fast after a brutal Castillo fight.
I expect this to be a more than competitive fight than everyone percieves.
Hatton isn't what we thought of him, and Lazcano may have enough left in the tank to win. Probably not, but he certainly has the chin to withstand a hatton left.

Technically if you want Hatton to win arn't you being anti-Lazcano?
Should we all support Ricky Hatton just because he's the big name fighter? ;)

I like Lazcano, he was very good at Lightweight, but is undersized at 140 and I can't see him beating the naturally bigger and stroinger Hatton.
I played my career mode in Fight Night Round2 (?) with Lazcano
