    Major annoucement expected from the Hitman today. Looks like he's finally going to hang up the gloves. No surprises there. What a legend he was.

    Hanging up the gloves is hardly a major announcement is it, most of us took that as a given. I hope to **** he isn't going to have one more run at it.

    Whilst i hope that he isn't coming back, i also hope that this "major announcement" isn't just that he's retiring.

    I like a good old "major announcement" and that would be a severe let down.

    Well 3 weeks before Hatton fought Pacquiao he did break his lickle toe as well so maybe he's gonna openly use that as an excuse now :think

    Hatton is returning to the ring for another fight, will see how it goes and that will decide if he continues

    He is having a kid. Whether that's the announcement I don't know.

    Perhaps something to do with Hatton Promotions?

    Shall we do a sweepstakes on what weight he'll return at? My guess is he'll be back as a welterweight but will weigh 152 for his comeback :deal

    Or maybe, just maybe.. Tim Bradley straight away? Or am I dreaming? A fully fit and focused Hatton v Bradley would be a scrappy war but entertaining throughout with cuts aplenty.

    If the presser is just to announce his retirement then thats pretty self indulgent

    It's more likely that he'll be officially announcing his retirement, than making a comeback.
