    what the **** does he need a farewell fight for? he was laid out flat on his back and waved goodbye to his fans on leaving the ring, what more do you want?

    Ricky should hang 'em up. No shame involved whatsoever.

    He doesn't "need" it. But he will want it. You'll see.

    Oh I agree I think there is too much money to be made, but it wouldn't be against a nobody, it would be against Khan. losing to Khan would be embarrasing for him so I don't think he will, but he seems to have no shame as it is so perhaps he will actually. He should not for the sake of his health, he doesn't need it.

    If Hatton wants to continue his career he should move up to 147 again even though 147 is a stacked division i think he can get some good fights there maybe work his way up again but if he wants to quit I would like to see a farewell match against junior witter maybe and have billy graham in his corner

    He's healthy, not yet old, at all, and is still at the top of his game. (even if his game is not on Pacquaio's level, or Mayweather's)

    There is money to be made, yet. BIG money. He's still got his wits about him, and is in great condition.

    Why retire, when he's only lost two fights, and those were to two of the best fighters out there?

    He should retire. He's made a huge amount of money and there nothing left for him to fight for, he's tried to mix it with the best but he's just not that level.

    I dont really see a choice for HATTON because based on the Lazcano fight it looks like his punch resistance has gone and there's only one Mallinaggi so unless he can find a feather fisted fighter.

    Please retire Ricky and enjoy your life.

    Although he is one of my favorites, I would love to see Hatton retire. If Khan wins a title it would certainly make a for a bombshell Brit battle. He really should consider retirement before he gets permanently hurt.
