    I've always said Ricardo Torres vs Ricky Hatton would be the most exciting fight at 140. But i doubt he will fight Ricardo Torres or Kendall Holt, Ricky Hatton wants the big names that make alot of cash.

    He only has a few left in him and i doubt he would bother with either of them.
    He's realised that he's best at 140, he won't budge from there except for a DLH fight.

    I reckon he can fight Pac at 140, Judah at 140 and a send off against an "easier guy." I reckon thats Holt or Torres, maybe, maybe Witter.

    I disagree JMM has stated he would move up to 140 to fight Ricky Hatton, and Ricky Hatton would for certain take the fight. And he will for certain fight Manny Pacquiao win or lose. And if ODLH wins he will for certain take that fight aswell. So thats 3 fights that make sense cash wise and legacy wise, and i think Miguel Cotto would possibly fight Ricky Hatton at catchweight. So thats 4 possible fights.

    He won't bother with risky but no name fighters like Ricardo Torres/Kendall Holt at this stage in his career. And since Junior Witter lost he has no real name anymore, i could possibly see him fighting Timothy Bradley, because he's the man that beat Junior Witter.

    Why fight JMM who's low profile outside of the US when he can fight Pac?

    How the hell did you reply so fast ? i just finished typing it all up, i went on my user cp and i found out you had already replied

    But anyway JMM isn't unknown outside the USA anymore, he has had big wins over MAB, Joel Casamayor, and two great close fights with Manny Pacquiao. All on American networks and they were all main events.

    I could easily see him fighting JMM, JMM is a top 3 P4P fighter with a name. It would be a massive win for Ricky Hatton, and JMM has said he is willing to move up to fight Ricky Hatton at 140 and i can see him doing that too. Especially if Ricky Hatton defeated Manny Pacquiao.

    Hatton should fight , JMM or maybe even Pac , but if he fights oscar i think he gets blown away , but whatever he does he deserves it.
    I ve enjoyed most of Ricky's career.

    think its pretty cast iron the winner of ODLH-Pac will be fighting ricky at wembley stadium sometime next summer.

    If its ODLH it`ll be at 147 and if its pac it`ll be for hattons light welterweight championship.

    Think at some point he`ll probably end up fighting both of them and other than the 2 i wouldnt expect hatton is even considering fighting anyone else.

    I think he fights Pacman. It's the most money and it's set up perfectly with Hatton and Pac fighting so close together. Win or lose, Manny still has the draw and the credibility. Us hardcore fans would be just as happy to see him fight some of the other names mentioned, but I think a showdown with Pac has been brewing for some time. Had Hatton beaten Mayweather, there is a good chance to we would have seen it happening now, but Hatton needed to re-establish himself first. He has done so very well, and it's all lined up for him.

    If Oscar offers him the fight, I'm sure he will take it, but Pac would be the better fight. Does Oscar really want to finish his career fighting nothing but midgets?

    Del a hoya - I don't fancy this one DLH should leave boxing alone now but i don' t blame him for the name and the money plus I can see the PR machine claiming DLH is the new P4P No1 if he beats Pac
    DLH - KO

    Pac - I would sell my cock on ebay to sit ringside for this one if he beats DLH this could this would be a monster fight at Wembley
    50/50 at least 3 knockdowns either way

    Cotto - At 140 this could be close and 3 years ago Hatton wins now even at 140 I think he is too much for Hatton plus Cotto brings nothing he has just come off a loss the only thing Hatton gets from a Cotto fight is a broken jaw
    Cotto UD

    Judah - could cause a few problems with his style and brings nothing but a name and a circus
    Hatton - Cuts

    JMM - Could be a great fight but I agree with Donny no one knows him in the UK apart from boxing fans (Ricky Hatton Fans are not all Boxing fans) - Hatton UD - War

    Torres - Great fight and a solid 140 fight but cant see how this fight can be fitted in to his last 3 fights I think
    Hatton UD

    Bradley - see no point in this fight apart from the belt Hatton would tear him apart and cant see him improving enough before Hatton retires
    Hatton - KO Rd 6

    I agree with most you say there but i cant see Bradley being stopped by Hatton but i can see Torres.

    It weren't me (Fenster) that said it

    If Ricky doesn't fight the winner of Pac-Oscar i think he'll fight Marquez. The Golden Boy connection makes it easy to make. American fans would have it. And considering Ricky can sell 55,000 tickets fighting complete unknowns, shifting tickets isn't a problem to him.

    I agree with most you say there but i cant see Bradley being stopped by Hatton but i can see Torres.

    Your probably right he could stop Torres and Bradley could be a good fighter but he doesn't have the experience now and he wont get it before Ricky retires I think he would be shocked and blown away by Hattons pressure if they fought now
