Ok I know it's still a little soon to talk of this seeing as Amir hasn't even won a European title yet but I imagine if Amir progresses in 08 as much as he did in 07 the clamour for a domestic showdown could really be building in 2009.

Hatton says he has 5 more fights which will probably mean retirement in 2010 and by then Khan should be close to his prime.

He looks an absolute monster at lightweight and I can't see him being able to stay there for all that much longer, my guess is after this coming year he'll move up to light welter.

This for me is the biggest domestic fight in boxing. The two most popular mainstream fighters in British boxing since Frank Bruno and Henry Cooper I can't imagine a bigger fight in the UK than this.

Do you think it will happen? I really hope so.

I also think if they meet any time after 2009 that Khan will do to Hatton what Lennox Lewis did to Gary Mason and Frank Bruno.

Fingers crossed that this fight happens cos I'd fucking love to see it!
