    Hatton promotions have an 8 fight deal with sky to do 8 friday night shows.

    But who the hell are they going to show. Sky need at the very least a commonwealth title fight, and Hatton does not have 1 fighter signed up thats even close to a domestic title **** other than Matthew Hatton.

    Jane Couch will probably make a comeback.

    Screw Hatton Promotions getting a ****ing deal out of Sky when there are so many, many other deserving.

    guess that means he isnt retiring just yet, cant be that any of his fighters merit this deal.

    I guess Matt Hatton is going to be a busy boy over the next year or so...

    Hurray for nothing.

    It is probably an 8 show deal for a new Hatton talk show.

    Even if he does fight him, Watson is not the commonwealth champion anymore, so it will not deserve a main event place on FNF.

    If they try and serve us the IBO then i will be pissed of and sky will be complete hypocrits. They quite rightly do not allow Warren to serve us WBU bull**** so they shouldn't let Hatton do the same.

    check this latest Hatton interview http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/boxing/8047334.stm


    the man dances around questions of his gubbing at the hands of Pac, and compares himself to DLH in the promotional stakes.....a bit more humble than normal but still sounding the deluded and arrogant fat toad he is.

    What a complete and utter waste of time. Why are Sky such idiots? They ****ing love the Hatton bandwagon. Forget he hasn't got a decent fighter on his books.

    I can't believe the likes of Hayemarker putting on quality cards are stuck away on Setanta and Hatton with a silver spoon in his mouth waltzes in.

    The only sports Sky cover properly are rugby (league and union) and cricket, because the commentators are excellent and are prepared to say what they actually think.

    Football commentators basically nuthug the big 4 and any England players, Sky worship Ricky Hatton and try to convince us that Prizefighter is entertaining.

    He says they'll do their first TV show in July as a UK leg of an American show :think

    Mayweather-Marquez is in July.....
