    yes, the man should still fight here in america. maybe in madison square garden, where he can go back to using 8oz gloves, instead of the 10oz in vegas. i do not like nevada's 10oz glove rule (i forgot what weightclasses required 10oz, i think it's for lightweights and above?).

    i like seeing how boxers come back from their first loss, especially the hitman.


    malignaggi in new york!!!!!!!!

    edit: i just researched, nevada requires 10oz for 135 (lightweight) and above.

          You're going to find that Ricky Hatton is going to be more popular here than he was before the fight. The loss will elevate him. He got the 24/7 exposure and from Floyd a minor version of the rub that Oscar gave him. People here are going to be excited for Ricky Hatton to come back, not just okay with it.

            Hard not to. He thought he could walk through Floyd. Kinda perceived himself as indestructible. Detroyed by a fighter who isn't really that type of puncher.

            Wouldn't be surprised to see Hatton struggle from here on. Kinda like Vargas.

              Hatton's a warrior. Of course American fans will want to see more of him. Although I personally think his style of fighting isn't very pleasant to watch. Before he comes back to America, he has unfinished business in the UK with Witter. That fight, now, is a must.

                Hatton showed alot of heart. I loved the guy on Saturday night. But if he continues to make excuses about getting KOd he will lose respect over here. Dont forget his fans didnt show up like that in the U.S. until he fought Money Mayweather. So a better question is will his fans show up again when hes not fighting PBF?

                  i see a malignaggi here or give that jerk witter a try over there.

                  if he needs the money.

                  or if he wants to go out with a win.

                    I think he's still welcomed here, i think his next fight should be against witter and as someone said that belongs in the uk but there are other intriguing fights he could take up here

                      I hope Ricky comes back. I like watching him fight, hope he stays at 140 from know on though.
