AGAIN, WHO???

i don't know who this guy is, but i notice that he doesn't have many KOs.. i don't know why this fight is being made, maybe to help hatton get his feet back under him

[-Antonio-]

This was expected. He did get knocked out in his last fight after all.

not a bad come back fight, he's fighting a guy that will give him work, a guy that will come to fight and try and win, and someone who doesn't have a big punch.
hatton just has to be worried about getting out worked if he can't hurt hlatshwayo.

hlatshwayo beat nate campbell at 135 and lost to holt at 140 and he's had a few fights at 147, so he's in and around hattons weight.

i think style wise he is taylor made for hattons style but could pose a few problems if hatton is gunshy after his last fight.

but i don't think that it's a bad come back fight, at least he isnt fighting a bum, he's taking on a ranked fighter, ranked 6th at 140 in the IBF and 6th at 147 in WBC...................

SO many people fight these types of fights after a 1st loss..

I dont see why Hatton is getting criticised for it

[deuce_drop]

hlatshwayo is a ranked fighter in two of the top three organizations and he's had tv exposure, at least on espn a few times but he isnt a bum, he's just not a world beater.............for **** sake.

i just don't see the point in this fight anyways what the point is ricky fighting someone that he is going to beat he should be testing him self not fighting no ones agen.

[Welter_Skelter]

i just don't see the point in this fight anyways what the point is ricky fighting someone that he is going to beat he should be testing him self not fighting no ones agen.

Who should he fight then??? Steve Conway???

that's who Junior Witter fought after his 1st loss..

[Silencers]

I'm not criticizing Hatton, I just hadn't heard of this guy before. I saw his record on boxrec, he isn't that bad of a return opponent. What I don't get is why is his return is coming against a welterweight.
