Not going overboard, but, maybe my boy should retire?

i don't think so kirk. there are far many fighters who are still active today that should retire but hatton is not one of them. pbf was just too big, too good, too fast and too talented for your boy, it doesn't mean he can't compete anymore at the weight he prefers.

 

No.

 

I think he should move back down to 140 and try to establish a legacy at that weight. He would have tough fights, but if he were to beat Rees, Torres, Malignaggi, and Witter, he could he become a HOFer. Maybe wishful thinking on my part though...

 

dont fink he should retire,he just held his own with the best fighter of our generation until the 8th round.he has a decent case for a rematch but why would he do that.
there is a legacy available for him at junior ww,clean up down there and prove to everyone he should be a top 10p4p,just because you lose to the number 1 doesnt mean your exposed(well on here it apparantly does).

 

I think there are plenty of good fights for Hatton at 140, and the fact remains that wherever he goes in the UK he is a ****in golden hen. I don't really see a reason for him to retire... he should probably work on staying in better shape though, because it'd be shame to see his career wasted

 

you are.
its junior witter,but we know what you are getting at.
hatton is still so respected in the UK all these fights would be super fights selling ot any arena.he should do it make a few million,retire and send his mum on holiday to magaluf!

 

Nah he shouldn't retire, But he really should stay in shape and not let himself go such much when he's not training because the older you get the harder it is to lose it, If he cant make 140 anymore he's in ALOT of trouble

 

plus he could make millions of dollars fighting a ****in cripple i'm pretty sure whoever they put in front of him, he'll still make out like a bandit

 

He hasn't looked real sharp in a long time not since his victory over Tszyu. I suspect his lifestyle and abuse of his body has finally caught up with him and even his famous stamina that he displayed chillingly in the fight with Kostya is now gone.
I'm concerned that he may get hurt even if he fights back at 140 if he goes up against free swinging punchers like Torres. Basically if he gets starched again even at 140 I think it's time to call it a career especially with his block punches with face defense style.

 

hatton vs zab at 140 :yep

 

He shouldnt retire, but for his own legacy wise 1 more loss other than to PBF he should hang em up.

 

Screw Zab. Hatton vs. Juan Diaz at 140 in a year. By then it will be a huge fight, and you KNOW that would be a FOTY candidate.
