Hatton coming back for one fight only

[jamiebhoy]

I agree with Kel, if he were to beat JMM he could retire on a supposed high, if he doesn't win he is the type to keep up the one more go scene and become a name on up and comers records.

I say stay out of the game, announce you have retired officially , it pisses me off he has taken so long to make a statment of intention, I think his ego and the fact he has a bunch of yes men means he will fight on.

A fight with Khan will be like a a good versus evil , the press will come down on the young pretender and make khan the bad guy, it would be a lose lose for Khan.

If Hatton comes back I would be really dissapointed to see him at a press announcement weighing 600lbs. He owes it to the fans he says he loves to start looking the part even between fights, but the old argument prevails "Oh he's always blown up between fights" Piss poor excuse IMO

JMM stoppage round 6.

Marquez is far tougher than Cotto and I think Hatton does better against Cotto than Marquez.

Marquez is far tougher than Cotto and I think Hatton does better against Cotto than Marquez.

While both would beat Hatton, I highly doubt that JMM could do it easier than Cotto. Firstly, while I don't agree with the "toughness" comment, you could make an argument for it. Secondly, Cotto is WAY bigger and WAY stronger than JMM. Not only does he know how to counter (which would be JMM's biggest tool), but he can box and fight as well. His best days may be as far back as pre-Marga-cheato, but to last 12 rounds (below your normal fighting weight) against a vicious p4p king, with an incompetent corner... that takes toughness AND skill.

I heard he was fighting type 2 diabetes

I kind of hope he fights Marquez because I'd get a ticket so I could see the legend in the ring (that's Marquez, I already saw Hatton do his violent drunk imitation against Pacquiao) & a guy who is one of my favourite fighters score what I'm certain would be a great KO.

But, on the other hand I'd love to see Hatton fight Khan because it would be huge in Britain & if Khan won it would be great watching half the forum lose their minds

Marquez is far tougher, he took all Mayweathers best shots and also he didnt get stopped by Manny Pacquiao, I think out of the Two that Hatton has a better chance at Cotto, the only thing that might favour Hatton with Marquez is Marquez might hit slightly lighter but I wouldnt say Hattonw ould be alot stronger and with Marquez's combination punching and Hatton catching punches with his face

Cotto fights slow

[Kirkland Laing]

He can fight Naz at cruiserweight. That way he won't have to spend his training camp cutting weight and he can concentrate on his boxing skills and defence.

His head is tired of being his defense but yeah, his biggest improvement in defense would be to move his fucking swede!

[holmcall]

At heavyweight?

[ICB]

JMM will destroy Ricky Hatton, why the hell would Ricky Hatton want to fight JMM anyway. He's a horrible style match up for him, why not just try and pick up another belt at 140 then retire with a title. Lamont Peterson vs Timothy Bradley winner would be a good fight for him, or even Amir Khan but take a warm up fight first is my best advice.

I wouldnt say way stronger, JMM did hurt pac which Cotto failed to do.

Well... Hatton wants one last hurrah. Cotto has said he's close to retirement. Let them fight at 147.

....... please

Agreed, I would love to see Cotto retire on a KO win. Poor guy has had everything working against him since Margacheato.
