    I guess Hatton has a max two fights left, wants to go out on a win...
    Graham wants him to stick at junior but in his interview he didnt rule out staying at welter..what fights are there for Hatton now?

    I think he can fight a few good fights at junior welter...then finish his career against pacman.

    At welterweight, there is De La Hoya or Cotto. Both fighters knock Hatton out.

    He should move back down to 140 and take less money, but more winnable fights against Torres, Witter, Rees, and Malignaggi.

    I don't know why people suggest that he should think about retiring. He lost a fight to a great fighter, he can still do great things. A few more wins at Junior Welter and he can go down as one of the best ever at that weight. He's only 28, he lost one fight, he'll be fine.

    as has been reported, he made a pact with his parents to quit at 30.

    Hatton should stop dreaming about 147. He should fight the other belt holders and unify the 140 titles then he can retire in good note.
