    His main aim is to fight Floyd, Floyd wants to fight in UK. He contacted Ricky's brother and Ricky's obviously realised that if Floyd's desperate enough to fight Matthew, he'll fight Ricky.

    Cotto would knock Hatton out.

    I even have the feeling Cintron could put him into orbit.

    I'm a Cotto fan (Despite him beating up my pal, Mick Jennings!) and I believe that Miguel would beat Ricky comfortably.

    The main issue here would be how much has each fighter got left. And I believe that Cotto is still a world class operator.

    As for Ricky Hatton, the only time he has fought at 147, he was in a desperate battle with Collazo and Hatton was in his "Prime", which appears to be some fights past.

    If Ricky Hatton cannot get down to 140 maybe he should forget about fighting world class welterweights. His style ensures that he is heading for another beating at that weight.

    Only someone who hates Ricky Hatton would want to see him fight Cintron.

    Ricky fought great against Malignaggi, but the top guys at 147 are completely different proposition!

    Anyone who believes that Paulie deserves a shot at Floyd is probably a friend of Malignaggi's (Who is a good guy by all accounts).

    No doubt it has happened loads of times, over breakfast, lunch, dinner, etc!!:).

    Judging by their physiques I guess Ricky has won most of their "Food wars"!

    Ricky v Miguel should have happened when they were both at 140. Also who will train hatton Joe Gallacher or Lee beard. It'll be a turn up for the books if hatton won. Also would it be 10 or A 12 round special attraction.

    If Hatton does fight again it will be another defeat,i really dont see his point in trying to come back.He had a good career and should leave it at that.He was talking about retirement before the Pac fight and has acted like a retired fighter since it,he is in bad shape and i dont think he can get back to anything like his best.
