    You have to take your viewing card to a cinema that will be showing the fight, pay a fiver, go back home, put the viewing card in the box, ring Primetime, register for £2.50, hang up, then phone them back up to get the signal sent to you box.

    Then, when that doesn't work, go on YouTube and watch it.

    I forgot to say, you could only do it this morning, but only if you had registered with Primetime, but not actually bought the fight itself. however, if you have previously registered with Primetime, I'm sure it entitles you to see a matinee screening of The Sound of Music,

    Has a boxer been so totally screwed mentally and physically by a defeat?

    I don't think many of us predicted this.

    Best of luck though to him, although I feel if he ain't gonna match his previous success then whats the point.

    Tensing quite a bit up on the stage, he looks like he has a bit of a turtle belly, he has shifted an awful lot of weight in a very short period of time though, you can see the stretch marks/scars, on his neck.

    Credit to the man for getting himself in shape though!

    It's the sort of fight where the early rounds he looks decent, then the bigger man starts landing and Ricky slows and it becomes a dogfight. It's a worry for Ricky, Can he keep Senchenko off. Clinching for dear life may not be enough this time..

    I'd go for Hatton on points or Senchenko via stoppage from any rounds from 6-10. Bit of group round betting. I can't see Hatton stopping this guy unless it's facial damage..

    Had a free £10 bet with SkyBet so I stuck a tenner on Senchenko by stoppage at 5/1 and then used the free tenner on Senchenko on points at 10/1.

    I'd like to see Hatton win and come out safe, but I think this is a big mistake and I don't think he looks well at all.

    Hatton will win comfortably by KO. Probably bodyshot.

    It's practically free money!

    It's a big call to say that when he hasn't been in the ring for 3 years, isn't getting younger and doesn't look particularly well don't you think?

    Senchenko is older than Ricky and has only boxed 4 times since 2010 himself so is hardly active. He has never mixed with the same company as Ricky.

    It's all about levels. For me, This version of Ricky Hatton will be several levels above Senchenko.

    Easy stoppage win for Hatton.

    "This version of Ricky Hatton will be several levels above Senchenko"

    How exactly do you work that out? Or are you a fanboy?

    Has Ricky even been active in 3 years?.....This wasn't just a 3 year sabbatical, this was a tough 3 years out. I fail to see how he is going to come back and be several levels above a fighter that has been active?

    I think he'll win, but he wont be levels ahead, this isn't prime Ricky Hatton, this is washed up Ricky Hatton wanting to prove a point and still thinking he has got what it takes.

    Anybody who overlooks Senchenko, simply because its Ricky Hatton, is deluded IMO, this isn't going to be Kosta Tszyu Hatton....it never will be again. Senchenko's chance to win this fight is early on catching Ricky cold, or later in the fight when the time out starts to make Ricky tire.
