In Malignaggi he faces a moving target, Malignaggi will not stand up to Hatton at any stage, moving backward and to the side constantly.

This will force one of two reactions;
1) A frustrated Ricky, swings and misses, constantly countered.
2)A red hot performance fro the Hitman and the rejuvination 0f the 140 lbs title.
It'll be interesting to see how this one plays out... I think Hatton can turn the clock back a bit on this one and show some of the pressure that put him up there... If he can't do that then I think the interest will drop of hugely on his fights, but I beleive he's still got a bit more to give..

It's not a superfight, but I look forward to it as much as Jones Calzaghe, Hopkins Calzaghe etc.. It was definetely the logical fight for Ricky at this stage, and a fight with Pac wouldn't be ridiculous after this one if he performs well... I'm sure a good performance from Ricky would peak Pac's interest as well..
