    Whatever he feels like doing. I give him nothing but credit for stepping up to fight the best instead of taking the Calzaghe route of padding his record and picking off old legends then retiring in the name of perserving an undefeated record.

    It's up to Hatton. If he wants to keep fighting, that's his choice. I wouldn't mind, he's an exciting fighter. I just hope that he gets the right trainer who can get him to the next level. Maybe he should consider Roach.

    Farewell fight and please hang em up. He won't ever beat Pac and if he does clean up the division he won't be on top for long. You will see in his next fight that he is on his way out.

    Ricky will land on his feet. I'd love to hear him behind a mic at some point.

    Yep, time for him to retire. He's been a greta servant to British boxing.....and he's done his fair share for the Vegas ecomomy.
    Hang em up and enjoy the millions i say

    Ricky has the balls but Joe had the brain. If Joe had dared look at RJJ (anywhere near his prime) he would have been vaporized in a mismatch. He rightly avoided that drubbing and had a long profitable career. He knew his limitations. Hometown decisions, favorable conditions, biased refs, predisposed judges, leaning officials, etc. is not what builds great fighters but rather insulates them from facing reality. Ricky dared to entertain the thought of being great. He didn't quite realize that his skills were not at the same level as his heart or desire. Surely now he knows.

    Nope, if Hatton stays fighting and Khan wins the title then it'll be:

    Hatton v Khan - Wembley Stadium - 100,000 in attendance

    Roach will fancy Khan to win after seeing what Pac did to him
