    Irish light-welterweight champion Oisin ***an has set his sights on a bout with Ricky Hatton in Dublin.
    Hatton is planning on a return to 140lbs after being stopped by welterweight king Floyd Mayweather in Las Vegas earlier this month and it has already been confirmed that the Mancunian’s people are interested in staging his next fight in Ireland.
    Hatton looks set to seek out a high-profile opponent for his next outing, regardless of the venue, but ***an believes that if he defeats the highly-rated Verquan Kimbrough for the vacant USBA lightweight title in West Virginia on Sunday, he would warrant a shot at ‘The Hitman’.
    "Promoter Brian Peters is talking of bringing Hatton to Dublin, so who better to give him a run for his money than myself," ***an asked in the Irish Independent.
    document.write('');"I would love to take on Ricky in Dublin, or anywhere else for that matter. I think it would be a great fight and I hope it can become a reality.
    “My own promoter, Stacy Goodson, has been gunning for a Hatton fight for the past year without success.
    "It's true that I normally box at lightweight but it would not be a problem to put on an extra five pounds for Hatton. So after Kimbrough, maybe it will happen," he added.

    Stacy Goodson is a plonker for starters, plus it'd give Jeff a "twice removed" link to Mayweather ;-)

    Unfortuntaly for ***an I fear Kimbrough will have too much for him , and if he loses that I doubt Hatton would bother with ***an as his return opponent .

    Good to hear he's making his comeback on these shores though :D

    I think Hatton is ducking Oisen :) ...... ***an is the nicest boxer I have ever met we talk all the time... I'd hate to see him in with Hatton ... mind you I said the same thing about the Spadafora fight.

    Well, if the only pro links you have are via Buckley, then you share them with no less than 15,000 British pro boxers betweem 1940 and 2007.

    That's the whole point , Jeff wasn't being serious for **** sake !

    I was just amazed you didn't get his sarcasm , Jeff knows the difference between ***an and Hatton , he's fought ***an .

    If you got the sarcasm then why the serious reply to his post ? , anyway it's imaterial really .

    It was a referee stoppage win for ***an , great fight too .
    ***an was in very good shape and just kept coming forward applying pressure , Jeff(not disrespect mate) wasn't in great conditioning in comparrison .

    I know Jeff suffers from Asthma and I think was working the doors at the time , aswelling as having a problem with dust if I recall right(and before anyone laughs dust can be a major issue for Asmathics , I know Clinton Woods lists sorting a problem with dust as one of the main reasons for his improvements the last few years) . Issues like that would contribute to a lack of conditioning .

    ***an never really hurt(stunned) Jeff but just wore him down through willpower , conditioning and a great workrate .


    As for intelligence , this is a boxing forum and intelligence would relate to how well someone knows the sport . Jeff being a pro would know quite a bit , me ? , I don't really know as I can't look at it objectively .


    But as for you , well I'm not even familiar with who you are............your pretty insignificant , even if you are the genius you appear to be ;)
