    This should be a massive deal, but no one really gives a ****...

    As far as the casuals are concerned he got kocked the **** out, retired, went on a massive bender, and now he is fighting Andrei Schevcehnko...

    Hardly anyone is talking about this fight, hardcore or casual

    I know at least 5 casuals watching, more than 90% of fights. Its not a huge deal due to Primetime, but it'll be huge if he wins and looks good.

    Exactly.

    If Hatton wins in style? Its going to be HUGE.

    As a former hater, I feel a bit strange being so happy to see Hatton back, but as the old saying goes their is a fine line between love & hate!

    You dont realise how much you miss these guys until they are gone.

    Nobody is talking about it at work,a Hatton fight always used to generate a fair bit of interest but not this one. Its a comeback fight after a KO loss 3 years ago. It has no business on ppv. If it was on channel 5 or even sky sports the interest would be greater but not many people will want to shell out for this especially as you only get one show for your money. At least with sky or boxnation you get a months viewing,primetime will have nothing showing bar 1 fight for £15.

    I got the feeling he'll come crawling back to SKY surely Amir would have told him how bad Crimetime is after the lack of promoting for his McCloskey & Judah fights. The Judah fight was a unification fight and apart from a few ads in one of the Red Tops there was 0 promotion .
