    ye, he's in tenerife. he has stayed on after a stag party. he was grear entertainment, had his heart in the right place, and will have a better than average idea, who would come out best, if the fight of the century ever takes place

    He'll be back. Once he sees all the media attention Pac/PBF will be getting. He'll want to be part of the limelight again.

    Say what you want about hatton he squeezed as much out of his talent as he could, but do to his lack of disipline and trying to change his style too late into his career he had no choice. there was no way he was going to slim down to 140 again,. and if he did the type of fighters he would have had to fight to get the type of money he is used to would starch him at this stage in life

    Hope he does, he's had a good career and he would have serious problems getting down to 140 and that could see him losing to a guy who he would have wiped the floor with him in his prime.

    not surprised

    weighs like 180 pounds now, has around 20m pounds in the bank, does he really have the desire to get up 6am and jog for 10 miles every day?

    A good choice if he sticks by it. Made some money, became a legit world champion, got some great paydays, and now gets out before his brain gets too severely damaged... but this is boxing, first retirements are often bull****.
