Can Hatton win another Title or is that the end of him

CANE18y ago

Can or will Ricky Hatton win another world title or is he finished. His best bet IMO is to go back down to Junior Welter where he belongs and if he can win the title and then unify he proves what a great fighter he is. I just hope this hasn't taken too much out of him and he still has something left to offer and be a force again. At Welter he will get destroyed again as he is clearly not big or strong enough at this weight. Some fighters can go up the weight divisions like PBF who started at 130lbs but is clearly bigger than Hatton and has grown into his natural weight at Welter. Hatton has always been and should always be a Junior Welterweight.

They might fight at a catch weight, or at a lower weight. I'd like to see it happen at any weight. It would be exciting. I want to see Malinaggi get beaten by Hatton in NY first tho. Hatton could clean up at 140lbs but the most dangerous fight would be witter at that weight. Amir Khan is only going to get bigger and stronger and could be there in the next year or two.

Hatton can beat Cotto. He could do well at ww but i'm not 100% sure. I mean Floyd is another league but he could do very well as he's a better pressure figther than Cotto. Although i would like to see Cotto fight either Hoya or Williams next. If Mayweather is to fight again, Cotto vs Hoya to set up Mayweather Cotto as Cotto can probably win (if Hoya fades or doesn't prepare well). If Mayweather won't fight in recent years as he said he won't, Cotto vs Williams. I think Williams has some edge here but Cotto knows how to box and if he proves more skillful than Williams i don't know if Williams can hang with him.

Cotto seems willing to fight anyone. I can see this fight happening. Billy Graham will talk Hatton out of it, he never wanted Hatton to fight at welter in the first place.

His best option is Cotto, whose stock is at an all-time high right now. And he can definitely UD Cotto. I think Cotto is to fast, big and strong for Hatton and would make mincemeat out of him. Hatton should have fought him a few years back at 140lb when he was still green and he would have beat him then.

First up Ricky should get a confidence builder at 140lb and the perfect fight would be Gavin Rees as it is a confidence builder and a title. Two birds one stone. Then next up Mallinaggi followed by Torres and he could finish off by unifying against Witter and then retiring.

He needs to move down...he doesnt have enough ass to hang up there. He is far from done though.

i don't think hes done and i think he can still win he should fight witter next. Yeah, Witter's the next option...but there ain't no money invloved in that one. DLH reckons he'd go down to 147 to fight him, but that ain't gonna happen.

Hatton needs to move down again, he'd be stupid if he stayed at welterweight. If he stays at welterweight, then he IS done imo. If he moves down, he can come back for sure

Witter is a dangerous fight for Hatton I've always thought this.
