    I'm not a hater just realistic... Relevant matchmaking is vital for any prospect! Sn are number obsessed that's why the Olympians are fighting 3 non descript opponents in their pro debuts instead of opponents we can actually gauge their potential with!

    Sorry mate, but you are way off. A win over Murray or Thaxton is nowhere near as great as a take over Barerra, whatever state he is in.

    Yep...who would people expect them to fight on the pro-debut? British belt holders?

    There are an awful lot of posters on here who were ripping the total **** out of Khan, a short while ago, for him daring to speak about being a "world champion*" in interview.


    *yes we all know about the WBO, but still, that was not an issue raised at the time.

    You really shouldnt take what I say bout Hatton too seriously on here anymore, I been a hater too long, Im bitter & twisted when it comes to Hatton.
    It aint right, but its the way it is:D

    & if Hatton spanks Pac? You can rub my big scottish face well & truly in it. Unluckily for me, Hatton has a second shot at glory, a second chance to beat the best & shut the Hatton haters up once & for all, & if Im being truthful, its a scary ****in thought!

    I cant believe the egotistical wee nyaff has got another shot after Mayweather schooled his ass, but I have always said hatton is one lucky ****.

    Look at his younger brother for proof, Hatton the older bro walks about with a big head of hair, his younger brother is bald!
    Now if that doesnt tell you that Ricky is naturally lucky, nothing will.

    That's shite... Murray and Thaxton will come to win, do you really know what barrera brings at this stage of his career, because I've been watching him since he was a super bantam and I have no idea.

    Clearly not but it would be better to see them fight Uk journey man so there is some sort of comparison available

    Thats not :-(

    Murray may come to win, but he won't. He is the most overrated fighter on these boards, I may be bitter and twisted about the bloke having spent more than a few quid watching his inconsistant arse over the years hoping to see him develop, but Khan is too skilled for his poor mans Hatton impression. The best you can say is that he has a punchers chance, but that could be said about anyone in the top 100 where Khans supposed weak chin is concerned.

    I've got no bones with the barrera match it's a step forward. Don't understand why uv aimed ur frustrations at me- I'm no hater I'd like to see him do well!

    Sorry if you feel that way Jeff, it certainly wasn't me intention. Thats why I addressed both issues seperately in my inital post...the hate part first and then your comment about careful match-making, the careful match-making point is the only issue I have with you :good

    I put "supposed" because I think that from a technical point of view its a bit more complicated than that.
