Hatton v Marquez in talks.....

he was a good world level pro. hes held belts a diff weight thats no fluke! anyone who says hes complete bunk is being silly really

he just wasnt p4p level! 

The light welter devision is no easy weight IMO with Bradley and Alexander in the mix to name but two.

Its a big gamble for Hatton as Im sure most will agree, another bad loss and it could stink the place out bigtime.

Agree with odog,s last comments too.

Khan would be probably the best chance of success for Hatton IMO as he could KO him if he lands right and quickly IMO. Beyond 2 rounds and Khans got the advantages all round.

Dont do it Hatton, far more to lose than gain as far as the gamble goes!

i think khan wd be too quick for him now!!  hes got no head movement anymore just come plodding in.  wd be easy for khan to hit with his quick hands!!  saying that khan does have a v,weak jaw if he does manage to pin him to ropes he could be in trouble.  i just think khans knock out has done him world of good his defence is so much better now and he boxes lovely!!  instead of just 100% attack hes thinking about what hes doing and using some form of tactics which he never did in his earlier fights!!

i think hatton wd think he could blast khan easy so wdnt take it serious,  that wd be a mistake!

Interesting early betting odds on a Hatton Marquez matchup. Hatton 11/10 and Marquez 8/11.

I would guess that the Hatton fan base would soon reverse those odds.

Marquez is in a totally different league to hatton

I'd stick my neck out and go for a Hatton win.

Hatton to get KO'd inside 4 rounds.

I'll be going if it comes off

Are you joking? Hatton couldnt beat marquez on points and hes got to the point, where I dont believe hatton has the speed/power to knock marquez out. Hes washed up and not because of pacquiao, mayweather jr finished hatton.

Lifestyle finished Hatton.

You cant go 13st to 10st every time you fight and expect to have a long shelf life in boxing.

Fair play to you calling a Hatton win.

The only hope for Hatton is if JMM's age has hit him like a truck since the Mayweather fight.

It can be done, roberto duran did it his whole carrer.

Hatton was bloating up after everyone of his fights. He was at his peak when he fought mayweather and mayweather finished him.

So what are we putting Hattons capitulation down to then?

Had he been 26 or 27 i think he would have shook off the shot that Manny knocked him out with.

Tbh I dont think it would have mattered what age hatton was, with the speed manny threw the final punch, he didnt see it coming. Its the punches you dont see that do the damage.

In my opinion, hatton believed he was pound for pound best and when mayweather ko'ed him in vegas, it destroyed him.

I knew he was buggered after watching his entrance to the ring against manny pacquiao. He look terrified, blue moon didnt even come on until he was in the ring and was cut short. He was on edge and knew he was going to get K.Oed. I had a lot of respect for hatton until I heard an interview where he basically tried to blame mayweather snr for his loss against pacquiao.
