I sense a bit of denial there too.

At the end of the day Hatton was knocked down 3 times in 2 rounds and the third one put him out for the count. Pac dominated the rounds and Hatton failed to even stun Pac while taking all of that. The Mayweather loss did at least have the air of a competitive fight for half dozen rounds, but this was a whitewash. Maybe his head is still mangled and the thoughts are spinning round his head, but I sense that he wants to continue. And judging by the comments of Lee Beard I sense the same thing too.

I think Hatton has the tools to beat most fighters if he does carry on, but after a loss like that I do worry about his ability to take a punch.
