    Hatton would have destroyed Marsh, no way could Marsh have stood a chance v Tsyzu, Hatton would murder him with body shots.

    Marsh is a bit of a forgotten character these days, bit of a mystery man.
    Anyway good fight, gonna go Hatton again, stopping him in 8. Body shots.

    Marsh only had 10 KO`s in 26 wins, Hatton would have walked through him.

    Marsh was a tough cookie though and very determined.
    I’d take Hatton but it would be no cake walk.

    You are on the money with your assertion that it wouldn't be easy for Hatton, I was ringside in 84 when Marsh beat Clinton McKenzie ( underrated ? oh no forget that ) at the Shoreditch Leisure Centre and Marsh not only boxed like a dream, when needed he got down in the trenches and toughed it out with the very persistent McKenzie, in fact it remains one of my fav encounters between two Brits, not of the view that Marsh would win ( although not impossible ) he would take Hatton deep, and Ricky would have known he was in a fight.
    stay safe buddy.

    My dad met McKenzie at a holiday leisure center in Devon in 1987, my mum enjoyed chatting with his wife, however shortly after returning from Kingsley leisure center we saw McKenzie get knocked out in the 1st round by some bum live on TV.

    That was a sad loss, the opponent was ( strangely ) Tony McKenzie, and Clinton was stopped in the 3rd after rising from a knockdown courtesy of a huge left hook from McKenzie, he had been in lots of hard fights by then, his time had come.

    Know what Im not sure about this one. Terry can handle himself well enough on the inside and he can fight on the outside as well.
    Hatton is not going to be able to box on the outside and Terry would be wise not to spend too much time on the inside as Hatton is stronger.
    Man all i know is that this would have been a great fight.
