    I like how everyone is jumping to conclusion that just because Pac made it look easy, JMM & Khan at 140 would make it look easy too? JMM is not the same JMM at FW. Put it this way, JMM struggled with Juan Diaz, same Juan Diaz Mallignagi outboxed and same mallignagi that Hatton destroyed. I know the a>b>c> argument doesnt always hold but it just demonstrates that Hatton is not that far off from the elites.

    Above 130 JMM is nothing special, infact he's just "good" at 135, "crap" at 147 and probably "ok" at 140. JMM is a great fighter, but remember, no mexican in the history of the sport has conquered more than 3 divisions. JMM did 3 already and he was jumping to 147, technically his 4th but its over the span of 5 weight divisions. He was a great FW & SFW, good LW but way too far out in JWW and WW.

    Khan is good but he doesnt have the chin. When youre as fast on your feet, and very good at getting to your opponent as Hatton is, and have a KO punch, you will stop Khan.

    Marquez would beat him badly. Left hooks and uppercuts all night.

    Hatton should try to make that fight with Amir Khan. It would be a huge event in England and he'd actually have a chance of winning.

    Interesting, @ 140lbs I'd take JMM...
    (Maybe even & the same catch weight as in the PBF fight?)

    Tho if this fight happens, I defo see them trying to get JMM @ a full blown 147lbs.

    Who would train Hatton for either of these fights?

    Won't be Billy Graham, Mayweather Sr. or Roach.

    you people make me laugh...

    how is ricky supposed to fight jmm or kahn when hatton probably couldnt even make 147.... which is a weight neither of these guys have business fighting at when hatton will come into the ring at like 174
