Mayweather out-hattoned Hatton, simple as that.

I agree with him on that TBH. Cortez was poor that night

That's not to say he'd have won in different circumstances, but if he feels hard done by the ref then he's entitled to IMO

The chance hatton had to beat mayweather is gone, mayweather finished hatton and took a part of him which he will never get back.

Cortez was more than poor that night, some of the worst refereing i have ever seen in any "super fight." He never gave hatton a chance to impose his style, thats the truth. Hatton definatley had a chance to hurt mayweather if the ref had of played it fair.

Now this isnt coming from a ricky hatton lover/ floyd mayweather hater. I am a huge huge fan of floyd and personally cant wait until he beats pacquiao but ricky was hard done by that night.

Bob arum is in talks at the minute with floyd, discussing money etc. In a couple of weeks we shall know the full details, fight is scheduled for may if both fighters can agree on money.

If there is enough $$$ involved, Hatton would fight his mum.

didnt Hatton say he would fight Khan if it was promoted through himself?

He is loaded but he genuinely believes he was hard done by in the Mayweather fight

I read last month this quote from him after being asked about a Mayweather rematch (I hope that never happens!). I thought what he said was fair enough though, he thinks the ref was a little unfair but also admits he could just be feeling sorry for himself!

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/8318294.stm

"I thought I was hard done by to lose in the first fight. The referee didn't let me impose my style on him.
"I'd rather go in there and find out whether it is just me feeling sorry for myself or whether I was actually treated a bit harshly.

Anyway as has been said many times before his chin seems to have gone so now I wouldn't give him much chance against anyone, not even the likes of Witter or Khan. I'd love for a miracle comeback as I've been a fan since before most jumped on the bandwagon, but it's not going to happen

Hatton may as well retire tbh,he has had his time,even if he did get a win against a half decent fighter he would just get embarrassed by someone even better.

Also the shape he has gotten himself into now tells me it's totally pointless.

What about Miguel Cotto,where do people expect he will go from here?

Mosley re match?

I read recently that he's worth £60 million!

It wouldnt surprise me. He made a lot of money from UK PPV deals.

Even David Haye made approx 5 mill from the Valuev fight.

Mayweather out-Hattoned Hatton.
The Pacquaio fight was LOL.

Hatton didnt even land a decent punch in either fight. The gulf in class was enormous.

the 1 mistake hatton made win the pacman fight was turnin up and steppin in the ring..

with the may fight, although he did much better than in pacman fight, he was still obviously outclassed.. mayweather did 'get away' with a few things that hatton mentioned in the post fight interview, but its not like hatton's never gotten away with some 'dirty' tactics..

He is loaded but he genuinely believes he was hard done by in the Mayweather fight and made a (one) mistake in the Pacquaio fight.

The guy is deluded and he is going to get seriously hurt the minute he steps in with a big punching 140lber.
He - and his stupid fans - will go into this one believing he has the size and power advantage - but if Marquez has even 50% left in his tank Hatton will get countered to pieces.

hatton must have some serious cash saved up tho surely?? unless he's pist it all away!!!
must have made some good money from Pacman and Mayweather fights??
i dont know why he doesnt just retire.. he's just prolonging the agony.. he maybe wants t go out on a win, but he will have to fight a no-one to get it imo,,.

Nah Hatton won't fight Witter, tbh, Witter would have done the job on him I think. Wouldn't have suited Hatton at all. But now, both fighters are stuggling, but still can't see it happening.

i think with roach behind him, kahn will go on to become a decent fighter..suspect chin, whjich i suppose u cant really fix, but his speed will be enough against 'most'.. Hatton's dead and buried these days... cant believe the size of him now!!
like teg says, we'll be seein him on prizefighter in a few yrs, when he's punch drunk, probably fightin at heavyweight too the fat knacker.. :-P decent fighter, and has won some good fights against some decent opposition, but as already alluded to, came massively unstuck againist the 2 best in the world.. cotto, marquez and a few others would also be a step too far imo..
wasnt there talk of junior whitter fightin hatton a while back?? thats probably more hatton's level to be honest..

I agree about Khan being similar to Manny earlier on in his career, both didn't focus on defence, all out attack. Now both their styles have changed under Roach, Manny is a much more complete boxer, who's to say Khan won't go in a similar direction. Not saying he will be as good as manny here, just saying, if Khan were to fight Prescott now, he would put out a much better effort.

Nearly a decade before.

Fact is Hatton lost to 2 of the best fighters ever in Mayweather and Pacquiao.

Khan was knocked out by a nobody.

At the same stage of his career as Pacquaio matey. Are you saying Hatton would KO Pacquaio should they meet again, because he was KOd by two tiny roadsweepers?

Are you saying Amir LOL Khan is on the same level as Pacquiao???

Your inability to read or understand what is being said is why you should stick to the general section.

You inability to try and change a debate on it's head is laughable

Pacquiao was KO'd early in his career and KO'd Hatton while at his peak.

Khan was humiliated by a nobody in a minute, if Hatton hits him he would barely last seconds.

People who think his chin has improved is just LOLable!

FFS he got KO'd by Prescott,what chance would he stand if Hatton hit him.

Hatton is sh*te now but Khan is just as sh*te and Hatton imo would KO him with ease.
At least he can hold his head high and say he lost to 2 of the best fighters ever.

Khan can't hold his head anywhere after getting absolutely humiliated by an amateur in a little over a minute.

Despite all your hot air, you still do not understand what I am saying.

Hatton is a corpse in the ring, Khan would beat him.

So it appeared against Pacquiao,I still think he would have enough to KO the likes of LOL Khan.

Nah. Khan will do him.

Whilst I honestly do respect your opinion where boxing is concerned.....I'm still going for Salita....not 100%, cause I can also see a Khan UD but I reckon the fact that I'm hoping Khan gets caught and goes down is swaying my decision.

Its fine. Salita is getting a lot of support but I dont think he is good enough to beat Khan.

Sure he is chinny but he has improved enough to be able to deal with the likes of Kotelnik and training in the Roach camp will do him a lot of good.
