Khan v Hatton

Hatton should just retire now.

 

I agree with Haye, this fight makes perfect sense.

Hatton will want a last hoorah in front of 100k fans at Wembley
Hatton will sign off with the biggest all brit fight in history
Hatton gets another shot at Roach
Hatton's retirement pot swells by £5m
Hatton will fancy his chances against chinny

Khan will get his biggest payday
Khan would love Hatton's name on his resume
Khan will hope to adopt Hatton's fan base as his own if he wins and Hatton retires
Khan will fancy his chances after seeing what his stablemate did

Roach would love Khan to take the fight as the gameplan is already mapped out
Warren would love to get one over on Hatton
Sky has the rights to both fighters in UK and will pay big money

These are just the reasons off the top of my head, I'm sure there are more...

 

Yes, that's what worries me. Hatton shouldn't put his familly through that again and it would be shameless for him to try to blag us about how he's not going to fail again. Oh he can get back with Grahem and blame Floyd Snr for his loss too...

 

I think the game's up for Hatton now and if he was to fight Khan I would favour Khan. Khan's speed and fast hands would beat him. His head and footwork r miles better

 

I think a sensible fight like Witter would be better. Give the next man an oppurtunity.

 

The next man is surely Khan not Witter

 

With how badly Hatton was affected mentally by PBF and that look in his eyes against Pac, I can't see him wanting to get back in the saddle for a long while. I don't think his ego could let him take becoming a club fighter or even stepping back "down" to B-level opposition.

That said, Amir Khan looked absolutely beside himself with glee and making Monica Seles yelps when sparring Pac. Is the clip of that still up? ESB search still isn't working right for me.

 

Excellent points. Makes a lot of sense.

Amir Khan has one of the worst chins of all-time (and it was found by far lesser fighters than Hatton) I'm not convinced he's had enough time with Roach to become any sort of defensive wizard.

One of the few punches Hatton landed on Pacquiao last night would probably be enough to wobble Khan enough to make the finish a formality.

 

I actually don't think this is a bad idea. This gives Khan the chance to fight harder competition. While giving Hatton a chance to redeem himself from a prospect

 

Hatton should call it a day now and i think he will.

He was seriously doubting himself after Floyd Jnr beat him and he's even admitted that he thought he was on the slide after that. What is this defeat going to do to him mentally?? It was a brutal KO and he was completely outclassed.

Nobody wants to retire with a loss but Hatton's health must seriously be in question now everytime he steps into the ring. He has no punch resistance anymore.
