Paulie's manager said recently that they'd like a fight with Matt Hatton if they can't drag Ricky's arse back into the ring. Magic Man vs Magic Man, who you got?
Paulie. He still a tricky customer and Matt Hatton poses none of the problems that Khan or even Ricky Hatton did. The only thing going for him is size, and Paulie will probably just slip round him and pot shot him all night.
Paulie TKO refs stops it in the 11th. Or to be more realistic, Paulie PTS. Would be cool to have Paulie over here again, although I suspect this would be in the US.
Paulie by embarrassing beatdown. In fact, Hatton would probably be less embarrassed if Paulie pulled his pants down at the weigh in during the staredown
I think that we might be disapointed and Matthew Hatton might win...:yep I think that Paulie is on the slide now and Hatton could stay in there with him for a split decision...:yep I hope not, but that's how I see it...:yep
Can anyone see Paulie really fighting Matthew? I was reading an article on Paulie and his recent fights and it mentioned some of his pay days from his last few fights. He got $1.2 million for the Ricky fight, $300 and $250 k for the Diaz fights and something like $400 for the Khan fight, so how much would he get for this?? $50k tops?? Can't see it personally maybe on a big ppv undercard would be the only chance, I still think Paulie if he doesn't retire has options, he is still a name and HBO regular. I don't no if he wants to be an opponent now when I say that I mean a fighter with a name there for an up and comer or a keep busy fight for a world champ. But I would seriously rather retire than fight Matthew Hatton.
the article at the scene says, Paulie is going to move up to WW and Matt Hatton is a possible tune-up fight, and a local promoter in Italy wants to schedule a Malignaggi fight in the town he lived in as a child....or around in sicily...
