    I know a guy who's planning on going to Stephen Fosters fight in Febuary, it'll be a bit of a trek for him though so I wanted to advise him on whether it'd be worth the time and money. The only fight I could find for that night was Fosters fight, it's promoted by Hattons company, do they put on good shows or is it the main event and some rubbish underneath? I watch Friday/Saturday night fights but they all blend together I can't remember who promotes what.

    If you enjoy boxing then it is worth going.


    Presonally I love the undercard action on domestic bills so go as often as I can and watch the full card from start to finish....brilliant nights.

    Hatton promotions, on average, put on probably the best undercard's out of all the UK promoters.

    Yep, Hatton's shows have looked very solid, considering they're in the embryonic stages of their promotional development. Lets hope they keep it up and get even better as they get more resources.

    I've got ringside seats for this promotion, so hopefully some competitive match ups will be made. I can't quite fathom who will likely be on the undercard, any one heard a whisper, or at least have any sort of idea?

    Hatton is one of the few promoters who caters for those actually there- at the quigg fight they had a band on and everything - interviews of the fighters which were aired 'live' to the crowd.

    There a good outfit and know just by doing that tiny bit extra they will win support. Fair play.

    I'm sure a few out of Quigg, Rhys Roberts, Askin, Joe Murray, Vassell, Martin Murray, Crolla, Kenny Anderson etc. will be on the bill.

    Hopefully that recent discovery of Brazilians has dried up :yep

    Usually Hatton puts on some good shows though.

    Vassell vs Mutley is a decent fight.

    I was at the Trent Arena the night he was chief support for Froch vs Dirrell..... safe to say I (and about 8000 others) were in the bar, not really good enough for a world title fight but alright for a domestic fight.

    Good opponents for Quigg and the two Murray's would do..... so long as they aren't supplied by Philip Fondu.

    from all i've heard about hatton promotions, they are very good value for money for the fans, from the boxing to other entertainment

    Far enough it's going to involve a boat or a plane aswell. Anyway it sounds like he'd get his monies worth. Most of the British shows I've been to have had enough action to make it worth going to me, the only really bad show I've been to was Klitschko vs Chambers in Germany, an unbeleivably bad undercard, especially considering they had 50,000 fans to entertain. I'll probably go to even though it means braving the M6.
