Hatton does not need to retire

Wait! Did you forget that Miguel Cotto was owning Malignaggi before Cotto broke his hand in the 5th? And Cotto still won Everyone knew Cotto was weight drained and it was Cotto's last fight at 140. But seriously, who is Mailignaggi? Malignaggi aint shiet. So you want Hatton to fight bums? Do you want Hatton to be a gate keeper? What do you want Hatton to do? Who do you want to see him up against? Please explain. Hatton was destroyed in 2 rounds by a guy who began fighting as a JR Flyweight, now if that aint a sign that something is wrong lol I dont know what is. That is rubbish, Hatton was also a flyweight once, he may have been 9 years old but he was still that weight. fact is fighters get bigger with age, i would like to see manny make flyweight now. infact he was bigger then hatton on saturday. Hatton should have one more fight and then retire, there's no shame in losing to the 2 best boxers of his era and he has had some very good wins. I hope he fights Witter, Khan or if Marquez gets beat badly by Floyd he can fight JMM.

Maybe should retire. Else fight Witter, Bradley or Khan-if Khan wins the WBA title (jnr WW) next month. 2 of them would be domestic blockbusters. Or, just fight some cat-go out with a win and enjoy his money.

HATTON WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AFTER THAT KNOCKOUT LOSS. after a shot like that, your nerves get rewired and don't respond to punches the same way, not only that but if effects ones confidence too, and after a shot like that, all confidence is gone. hatton will never be the same after that, i think that he should get one more win, fighting someone who is a feather fist like malignaggi, and retire with a win....................... if hatton takes on another serious fighter, he will get knocked out again, this time he wont be able to get out of the first round either.......... sad to say, but manny literally destroyed hatton.................. in more than once way.

Hatton's numbers up......Maybe a Zab Judah fight but Hatton's styles been disected to death now.

I think he will struggle coming back from a loss like that, he should retire the guy has got plenty of money... great guy great career, just ended badly.

I can't believe so many ppl think that hatton should retire and that he is shot just because of this ko. It's like everyone forgot his recent destruction of Malignaggi. Nobody ever did to Malignaggi what hatton did to him. I think hatton can still hold his own at 140 and retiring right now on a lose would be a foolish move that he'll probably regret forever. Part of me agrees with you. But if he's going to come back he should take on Bradley and see how he goes. If he puts on a good performance he should fight Marquez.

Hatton doesn't need to quit, he has to stay away from southpaws though.I guess its to late for him to figure out to slip with his own punches(after the 1st round he should of figured that out) or to keep his right hand up when facing a guy with a killer left hand.

I think he has atleast 2 good fights left in him. It just doesn't seem right for him to retire at this point. I would still like to see him take care of Witter and if khan wasn't fighting Kotelnik, hatton would have surely been able to beat him.

hatton prob. gonna b figthin som bums at his backyard..

Malignaggi isn't a puncher but his style can give people fits. he isn't a push over by any means. I still wouldn't mind seeing Hatton fight Bradley or Witter....Lefty If I bought the Ppv I would ask for my money back. Dude we watch boxing to see great finishes devastating knockouts and action. now granted wouldve liked the fight to go longer but it was 2 rounds of excitement. It had action and ended in a devastating knockout. it wasn't like the guy got hit with a cheap jab and laid down it was a awesome KO punch. Defintely not something you see everyday....Lefty

hatton was never an elite fighter, he just had had a huge protected record, wrestled kostya to death, then earned a couple of shots at the P4P guys because his massive entourage of british fans bought into his hype (and they brought in the $$$). dude, if you're using paulie Malignaggi as an example of why hatton's not done, man, I dont' know what to say. that's sad. real sad.

Getting KO'd like that can have a long physical and mental effect on a fighter. I highly doubt we'll see Hatton in any meaningful fights again.

his chin has been brutally cracked twice and he has enough money that he needn't put his neck on the line and fight the guys he really should be

I'm sure he is still a solid fighter but his chin is gone.

Hatton is done... His done on an elite level.. He can hang around if he wants fighting the likes of paulie or witter etc and sell out the arena's back home.But him being p4p or even a great is finished

Dude can't beat any of the top WW's, and Pac is now the top jr WW and he can't beat him either. Retire or continue on as a journeyman.

His chin is gone and Paulie had nothing.
