Juan Diaz v Ricky Hatton looks like it might happen

[oakleyno1]

for me hattons chin is gone - he wont ever beat another quality puncher in his career, bu diaz will be a test of how well hatton can still fight and box.

this is probably the only fight which could really enhance rickys legacy if he can beat him, we know his chin is gone but people will still say hatton couldnt box, if he can outfight and outbox diaz that will at least put to rest some critics.

great fight i hopew it happens

Stylistically, this is the perfect fight for Hatton. Even though I still think its a close fight. But this could do more harm than good. Hatton may look good enough against a guy like Diaz and then think he is back to form. But its hard to tell if Hatton's chin or confidence is gone and if he is gunshy. One thing for certain is Hatton is not going to bring anything different. But neither will Diaz. If Hatton goes to the body plenty I'd favor him.

That's what I'm afraid of, I mean the fight with Paulie seemed to make him think he was a fucking 'MONSTOR for his weight'

If the fight comes off, UK venue, goes out on a win, announces his retirement to the crowd and that's a lid on a great career as a British boxer who did wonders for increasing the popularity of boxing in the UK.

Hatton is done. Diaz beats that ass

You could put these two in a walk in closet.Question is over Hattons mental and physical state after being blitzed by Pacquiao.Diaz may also have a false sense of confidence off rail thin iffy win vs Paulie and himself being brutally KO'd prior vs. Marquez.Can def see this one being made...IF Hatton has some chin and confidence remaining,I think he can beat Diaz on the inside.

I know style makes fights but if Hatton beats Diaz, will Pacquaio's win over Hatton have more weight than Marquez' victory over Diaz? Vice-versa.

Hatton won't need much chin against Diaz. They are both swarmers, but Hatton hits harder and he is still faster. Diaz has a better jab, but I doubt he'll be able to control him with it enough to negate the speed different. Hatton's hook will beat Diaz hook to the target every time.

I'm gonna guess there are a minimum of 5 facial cuts between the two in this fight. I hope it happens because stylistically it should be extremely entertaining.

The "Cutman Championship of the World" should be on the line for this one. There will be more blood and gore than a zombie movie
