    i guess sky and setanta are bidding for it. Setanta outbid them for Calzaghe vs Jones Jnr, but with them already showing Haye and Calzaghe that month, can't see them being to fussed abut Hatton.

    Setanta have already forked out for Calzaghe and Haye's fights in November so this fight will be on Sky - and that'll be Sky Box Office for sure now that Khan's career has gone tits up and Ricky still hasn't finished counting the money from his last stateside fight on the same channel

    Yeah thats true, Hatton, Haye and Calazaghe all fighting in the same month and only having to ppv for 1 (with the others coming in a monthly subscription) is a pretty good deal

    I don't have a link but I saw it.
    He didn't look ill but a bit overweight, I've seen him look alot bigger though :yep
    He said he's going back to England to train with Lee Beard and then Mayweather sr is coming over later to oversee things.
    He was interviewed by that guy from saved by the bell too :hey:think

    He is less overweight than I have seen him for a while - still with nine weeks to go to fight night.

    I would have been surprised if the fight was anywhere but on SBO, he is their Golden Boy afterall.
