This is just bad news. Even if Ricky does lose all that weight he will be a corpse in that ring, and that cant be any good for his health. The dude has to live with the fact that he screwed up and should move on
NO DON'T DO IT RICKY. BRITAIN LOVES YOU ALREADY. SAVE YOUR HEALTH. I'm sure everyone will agree. Good boxer. Great fighter. Heaps of entertainment. No shame losing to the two greats of a generation. #keepthosegloveshungup
Does he have some sorta health issue? If he's healthy I don't see why he can't come back. He did have elite skills and he only lost to the two best fighters in the world. At the right weight he can still probably compete although I don't see him beating Timothy Bradley. I do think if he hadn't retired he would have beaten Khan but now I don't know about that fight.
He can make the cut because he's not too old but he probably wont be what he was even if he does get down to 140. Let's be realistic, he's not prime. Can he still win a title? It's possible but it depends on who he is up against. He's going to have to change his style a bit if he comes back, his stamina wont be the same and he will need head movement.
You are insane if you think Paulie can TKO anyone. Feather fisted Paulie wont be TKOing Hatton. Paulie is actually the perfect comeback fight but I don't think Hatton should jump right into it. Hatton should take a tune up first and then try his chances at Paulie.

couple tune ups at 154 then 150 and he can fight Timothy "the Desert Storm" Bradley and One Up Pac then retire again
