    im going for zab judah. seen as in he bottled mathew hatton at 147 claiming he wants to fight at 140. who better to fight at 140lbs than older brother RICKY HATTON. it would be big, sell tickets, make money and above all a fight i could see ricky winning

    retire. He's made plenty of money and only lost to 2 pac an pbf. No shame in that. He's taken his talent far and should leave it at that. IMO he's past it. It would tarnish his record to start loosing to lesser fighters

    Hatton ain't bad, he just lost twice to #1 p4p fighters at a time,
    no shame in that, its only means he is not #1 p4p material.

    I know that a loss aint the end of the world. I just can't see him doing well against decent opponents anymore. + he looks terrible nowadays. His lifestyle really has caught up with him like most predicted it would. It would be quite sad if he fought on got the hell beaten out of him and possibly got badly hurt. If he fights on i can wish him only the best

    About 4 month ago they said he was going to move up and fight the WBA "regular" Welterweight champ (don't know his name), I don't know what ever happened to that match. My guess is either retire or fight Khan or maybe even Witter.

    With Hatton i will back whatever decision he makes. But i do think something in me will be skeptical if he takes on another fight. Maybe a little harsh seen as he has only been beaten by, arguably, the greats of today - but i do think it could be time to retire. In saying that if he books a khan/diaz/judah fight i will be getting tickets.

    I voted Diaz, but I'd say Judah or Diaz would be fine.
