    How likely do you think it will be whether he fights again, or even better goes on to face Khan?

    Its far from a zero chance, Hatton must be getting the itch again its whether or not he acts upon it.

    There is no doubt they would fight in that case.

    At 140 or 147?

    Ahhh what does it matter. He's been out for too long and he'd be there for the taking if he ever stepped in the ring again.

    It's a shame the Pacquiao loss forced him into depression and inactivity. I'm pretty sure if he tried to bounce back after a brief rest, he would have had a few more good fights. People forget he was smacking Malignaggi about only months before Pacquiao.

    Well Flea, its boxing related and that is why we are on this site, or so i thought.

    Certainly better than talking about negotiations about fights that we are getting teased with.

    Then again judging by your post count you dont care about posting in **** threads.

    I was thinking 140, but obviously he hasnt fought in a while and his punch resistance would be a little better at 147.

    IMO hatton will want to come back even if it to face a journeyman solely so he can say he retired with a win instead of a loss.

    I'd definitely prefer him to come back at 147 and face a less-threatening opponent. One way to redeem the Pacquiao loss, would be to fight the man who everyone thinks he ducked his entire career - Junior Witter. Might not be bad idea considering Witter is also shot. Imagine the boost his legacy/reputation gets if he won that. It would also be a big-money fight here in the UK.

    Very high risk though. :think

    That fight would have been terrible five years ago, certainly would be now, fighting another shot fighter wont boost his legacy a great deal but his wallet would be.

    The main reason i think he would fight khan is because the financial reward would be great nd they could sell out wembley no problem.

    But the only downfall i could see in that is the race wars that would follow suit in manchester.:deal
