I'm not really bothered about Hatton-Paulie as I don't think Hatton has much to gain from it. A showdown with Pacquaio will generate enormous interest and would be a bloodbath so I'd love to see that match up but apart from that the fights aren't there at 140. Do you think he should try to move to 147 again ? But maybe go for a shot at Paul Williams but with the height diffrernce that could prove difficult. What should be his next move ?
I think fighting guys coming up is the only way to go. Pacquiao is a good fight.
He'll get damaged at 147.
Im pretty sure hes done anyway.
I would like to see Hatton face Paulie, Paulie has developed a bit of a name at this point and beating him has some meaning at 140. I don't want to hear PAC mentioned with Hatton until AFTER we see how he handles Diaz at 135.
Ricardo Torres if he beats Holt in a rematch, thats the most entertaining fight at 140 and it would be a candidate for FOTY IMO.
Torres and Malignaggi are the only real options IMO. I'll take either one.Quote:

I hope Hatton takes Legacy over spectacle. If he fights PAC it's a lose, lose situation for him, if he wins or loses it's to a guy from a much lower weight class, even if he is the same size.Quote:

Hatton-Williams at 147 is too freakish to watch because of the height differencial. That's a tough one for Hatton. I don't know if he would want that.
So to answer the thread question, I'd rather see (in order)...
Hatton-Mallig
Hatton-Bradley
Hatton-Pac
I want to see him fight Oscar
You just want to see him look like he fell in front of a train:DQuote:

Surely Oscar is to big for Hatton to face. That would be embarassing for Hatton.Quote:

Ricardo Torres deserves a shot although he's never expressed interest.
Hatton would be too small for everyone at 147.Quote:

either of those 3 is a lot more intresting than PM.
I dunno. Hopkins has made quite a name for himself beating up smaller men. Same rules have to apply to everyone dont they?Quote:
