    Can't begrudge him the Kings ransom he'll be getting,but he was finished before he got it the ring with manny,let alone his comeback over a decade ago
    A missmatch on paper but hatton never lived the life when he a pro let alone when he retired,sadly he's one of a number of fighters who believe they always have another fight in them

    Who would actually pay to watch this in any capacity? I mean, I wouldn't pay or watch it with someone else is money, let alone my own.

    Incredible that anyone would pay to watch him or his son in 2025.

    Nowadays I really have no idea. I wouldn't even make the effort to watch either for free, I don't see or get the appeal in any fashion, but I understand I'm not their market. Some out there will be all over this, spending their hard earned money on absolutely nothing. Maybe we just in a world where people have way too much money over sense.

    Only Wicky can sustain an eye injury at an Oasis concert in Cardiff. Was Kerry Kayes there to work on it in between songs ?

    Seen him pissed up in Tenerife a few times since his weight loss/mental health reform and he didn’t seem in a great place. Don’t know if he needs the money or what not.

    This is a terrible idea. Last time I saw him on TV he looked like he'd eaten Martin Bakole.

    He's skint, isn't he? CBD Salesman now.
    What's happened to Claire what's her face from Brookside, he was knocking about with her for a bit now she doesn't get a mention.

    Thankfully the guy he's fighting is also 46... I had visions of him going in with some 25-year-old with a decent record and getting folded over in a short time.

    His career is done, if they are going to pay him well ... but these are Dangerous fights. Just look at Gaven and Cox getting beaten easily in bare knuckles, and Tyson getting punched while barely being able to move Vs Paul etc etc

    F me, this just gets worse. I thought Manny coming back was bad, and believe me, it is, but Hatton is way worse.

    Terrible news, and it's not one I will be watching, even none fight fans know he is shot to bits, he must really need the money badly.
    Quite sad to be honest.

    Is this going to be PPV on DAZN ?

    I'm wondering if Carl Froch will announce a return to boxing ?

    I hope it’s purely a weight loss exercise and the fight itself is a glorified spar. Other wise he is getting badly hurt

    I remember the old masters football on sky, never watched it but a bit of a laugh I guess, seniors golf likewise.

    Having middle aged and older men lacing them up again is another level of having no interest, if people watch or attend its up to them, waste of time and money for me.

    Hatton may need the cash, attention or whatever and going on the daft talk people had for Mike Tyson getting in a time machine back to 1987 and KTFO of Jake Paul, there are people that will watch or attend.
