    :bbb Would that be of any interest to anyone?
    Considering Tim is the man next to Pac @ 140lbs.
    & a fight between them will most likely never happen.

    Why not Hatton?
    The fight on Sat. did not last long at all (Got KTFO)
    + what else has Bradley got lined up?

    Payday's for everyone.

    I could'nt give a **** about Hatton anymore after saturday night.

    He was beaten far too easily and needs to retire.

    I don't think any of the 140 lbers care about him anymore either unless they are looking for nothing more than a pay day.

    he's still a good name for a resume, and i've said ever since i Bradley-Cherry that Bradley can beat Hatton, he's just too good of a counterpuncher, too clever, too fast, and too well conditioned

    but i think it would be a good fight all in all, if Ricky doesn't retire, i think he should consider it, i'm sure Bradley would have no problems traveling all the way to England to fight again

    Hatton should fight Bradley for a title, then (depends on what happens) Witter for the WBC and Khan for the WBA. Then retire on top.
    He won't go out on a loss. He'd make a lot of money from these.
    Also, he has been stopped by arguably the two best fighters of our era.
    He's lucky he had the competition.

    I've been wanting to see Witter/Hatton for sometime now, maybe after Witter wins the WBC title we can see that.

    Tim Bradley and his family and friends might be interested?

    I would take a more cynical view and see the Witter fight happening now...

    I agree. Hatton has nothing left except a big name in the UK. Maybe if Khan wins a belt at 140 he can fight Hatton but besides that I don't see why guys like Bradley should fight him. If somehow Hatton wants to get back in the mix he needs a belt. :bbb

    It would be a great contest and a major fight at 140lb, one which Hatton wins. Plus, Bradey has a name in America so Hatton wil get back a little bit of pride. Possibly another fight afterwards, maybe Witter in Engand as a money saver for his fans or someone like Holt which hatton can easily win. Then he must defeat Marquez, which he can, to line himself up again for a megafight.

    The Hitman will be back!

    Is Hatton now completely washed up and shot? or did he just look that way because Paquaio is on a whole different level? If it's the latter I'd say he could still beat guys like Bradley, who's a good all rounder but not stunning in any one aspect, Witter and Khan too. I think the 26 year old Hatton deffinietly beats those guys, but now it depends on what he's got left, he hasn't looked too hot for a while now really. He could still end his career with some good wins, he's just got to pick the right guys.

    For what it's worth I think Khan should avoid Hatton, but for different reasons. Hatton is beloved by the British public, if Khan beats up a past it Hatton, he'll alienate Britains boxing fans forever. Think Cooper/Bugner, or if you're American, De La Hoya/Chavez.

    Hatton never beats Bradley, Witter, at 140 he claimed he was the best at 140 but never fought the best at 140 he is a fraud.

    He's still a cash cow & more vulnerable than ever. Bradley & co should be queuing up to fight him.

    i think its the next natural fight for both of them. although Hatton might just need a confidence builder first
