    obviously still in negotations. Will be between Sky/5/ITV and maybe someone like ESPN are in the mix.

    Marcos Maidana?

    Ranked in which rankings :D

    He won't face someone as dangerous as Judah off a lay off. Both are well past it but Judah has been active, Hatton been inactive with his lifestyle will be several levels below where he was against Pacquaio and Malignaggi. Do we also need to mention Hatton's weakness against southpaws?

    Expect an older none puncher. If he is going in with a fringe contender maybe Joan Guzman or Soto? Although he really shouldn't be boxing, Hatton was always an energy fighter who didn't have the best fundamentals, he'll be a punch bag without his stamina. Guzman could be a banana skin

    Did he mention if he's going to 140 or 147?

    Honestly think he should go in with Junior Witter...he is shot to **** and at least is a 'name' of some sort and is a bit of a grudge match...easy comeback fight imo

    I agree he is terrible to watch but could be a decent warm up fight for hatton
