Hatton will fight again it seems.

Ricky Hatton Says He Will Probably Fight Again - Boxing News

[CFH]

If he sticks to the Diaz's and the Khan's of the world, he should be ok (though I think Khan can and will beat him), but I can't see him surviving against big punchers at this point.

[El Kabong]

Would be nice for him to have a good local fight only to have the shit kicked out of him again by some club fighter

[WelshDevilRob]

Good to hear that he'll carry on. I know people want him to jump into a big fight but I'd rather him fight a fringe contender to get that confidence back and for him to see where he is.

Get a win under his belt then fight someone like Juan Diaz.

Too be honest i'd hate to see Khan-Hatton. At this stage i think Khan bludgens him. I don't think Hatton deserves that, plus i couldn't stand how Khan talked about MAB after he beat him - he was saying nice things but at the same time being UNBELIEVABLY patronising.

I hope not. I have this feeling that the first time he gets hit flush (no matter from whom), it will be the end. Why chance it? For God's sakes Ricky, stop--if not for yourself, for your family and fans. Pugilistica dementia has no conscience, mate. Ask Bobby Chacon, the Quarry's, Jimmy Young, Willie Pep, Aaron Pryor, and way too many others who are no longer with us or are in bad shape.

Have the feeling he'll end up with Juan Diaz.Not sure where he will be mentally and physically but wouldn't mind he and Bradley going at it.

A much better chance with Diaz. Bradley is peaking and is way too fit and fast for him IMO.

Diaz may be done. If Ricky could cut him early, he might have a decent chance of mugging him, but I just don't see how he can come back after having been concussed the way he was from Manny.

Yeah, i have the same feeling. To be honest i had it after the Mayweather fight, then the Lazcano (Hatton was SO close to getting sparked in that) fight made me sure he'd go next time he was hit by a guy with a decent dig. So whilst i enjoyed his performance vs Mallinaggi fight it didn't answer the BIG question. Lo and behold, the next time he fights a guy with a decent dig...BANG! he's gone. I fear that would be repeated VS Khan or Diaz.

Think your right about a Bradley fight.Two guys going in opposite directions.Diaz/Hatton has the style not to mention promotional attraction,think GB really wants it.Both guys sliding fast.Diaz not a big puncher but he wobbled Marquez and Paulie off lefthooks.Could be bad news for Hatton.

[YIDDLE]

he fight a couple of the lesser fighters to start with and stay at 140lb

[CFH]

He'll beat Diaz if they fight, then fight someone who's not a light-punching, natural 135'er and get sparked in a big way. I'd love to see Khan beat him just to watch this forum implode.

[Youngblood]

He shouldn't in my opinion. But if he does, make it a bum or 2 just to say goodbye to the fans. What's the sense in having a good long career if you can't remember it.

If he starts training now he just might make the Royal Rumble! He could call himself 'Hatterbean'

[Gandalf]

I'm in two minds about it, the Manny fight was an unfair reflection of Hatton and to be honest it was Hattons ridiculous effort that made Manny look as good as he did. My only qualm is that he hasn't fought for a while now and there is little on the horizon. Plus he is horribly out of shape again. If he is going to comeback then do it quickly against anybody and just get a win under the belt. No point at all stepping back in at the top after a long lay off.
