    This would be huge in England and could be a big test for Khan. Remember Hatton was only beaten by the top P4P fighters in the world in PBF and Pacquiao. Would you like to see these two fight?

    I believe that Khan would beat Hatton handy enough. I would pay to see the fight. It would have to be in Wembley Stadium. It would be a great event.

    I too would make Khan the favorite but Hatton could give Khan a tough fight if he is able to get inside and pressure him, and is not bothered by Khan's power. The fight would sell out Wembley easy and I personally would love to see it.

    Also, think of the money both would make. Khan's with Golden Boy and Hatton is friendly with them also he has his own promotional company.

    Lads Hatton cant take a punch anymore. I hate to say it as I'm a huge fan but I think his punch resistance is literally zero. I'd predict Khan ko 1st round to be honest. Hatton in his prime would destroy Khan but he just cant take a shot anymore and I dont want to see him blown away again.

    I don't think Hatton could get that chicken wing out of his mouth long enough to lose the 50lbs.

    After that hook from Pacman, a stiff jab from Khan would probably take Hatton's head off. Terrible idea for a fight unless you really want to see a guy killed.

    I wouldn't want to see this. Khan has at least a couple of fighters who're ahead of him in his division and around the same age. Hatton's not only older but he has wear on him. I think with the use of a time machine a young Hatton would knock Khan spark out, nobody's got a time machine though. The young buck often beats the old bull, doesn't mean he's better than the bull ever was though so what does it mean?

    even if hatton made the weight....he should hang his gloves up.....hes done enough for boxing and given us some entertaining fights...even if he came undone with the elite of our time....he was excitin to watch and hes a nice guy....lets not see him get a beat down at the end of long career....
    If the fight did happen....Khan win by tko within 3 rounds.....
