I dont buy into the whole hatton is past his prime. His reactions may of slowed down a tad but he`s still only 30 and with 12 weeks solid training he`d make khan look very silly!!
Apart from Malignaggi who? & Khan has handspeed on the level wit PBF & Pac, certainly quicker than Malignaggi or Collazo. Morales was also only 30, fact is different fighters age differently. Hatton took big shots off some of the best, and its got to a point where he's paying for it & his lifestyle outside the ring
Amir Khan may have the speed, but he doesn't punch like Manny Pacquiao. He doesn't have Floyd Mayweather Jr's defense. He doesn't have anywhere near either guys chin, and he can be hurt to the body as Michael Gomez showed.

I think it depends on how Ricky Hatton does in the early rounds, if he can get past the early flurries by Amir Khan. I full expect Ricky Hatton to give Amir Khan a beating to the body and stop him in about the 8th round.

Im suprised people are picking Amir Khan so easily, when he has such a fragile chin. Beating an old undersized MAB who was a bloody mess in the opening seconds, who didn't even have a chance to get into the fight. Plus the fight should of been No-Conest, didn't really impress me at all.

Exactly

bet anyone on here that once amir does start mixing it with the big boys at 140/147 he steal malignaggi`s "powderpunch" status.

Khan wouldnt be able to hurt hatton in a million years, Hatton could knock khan out with one brutal attack to the body
