Originally posted by D-MiZe View PostHatton was a come-forward, face first, body bashing brawler who's greatest assets were his punch durability, body work and inside fighting. It's his life outside of the ring that ended his career early with the constant blowing up in weight inbetween fights.
He looked gaunt at the Pacman weigh-in and wouldn't healthily make 140 anymore. 147 isn't a good division for Hatton at all and he'd be easy pickings for the top fighters.
I can understand why he wants to return after leaving on the back of the Pacman demolition. However, would he want to then re-retire on the back of defeat against someone like Kell Brook or Randall Bailey?
To compare Morales & Hatton is stupid.
One is an ATG who was once so good that even years past his prime he can still hang at the top of divisions. Where as the other has shown an incredibly dramatic decline and retired to focus on his health.

If he sticks to fighting bums in Manchester, I don't mind a comeback.
No more PPV or HBO for him.

im not against a comeback of an exciting fighter in hatton, but i believe he should be worried about his health.. no one knows it better than himself, no one knows whats really left in him now but himself, if he thinks he still can do it and its something that he really wants, then why not? we only live once..
if he just wanted walk out with a win, then why not..
if he just wanted to give malignaggi a crack again, then why not..
its really up to him..

I'm hoping that Hatton's comeback is kept on a smaller scale: Get him older tomato cans and let him go out on a high note. Don't put him in there with any young, hungry guys.
I can't blame him for not wanting to end his career with the Pacquiao annihilation.
