Ricky Hatton wants to end his career with a ****. He is pretty focused on facing IBF junior welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi in New York or Las Vegas in November, but if he wins, he wants to fight either WBC lightweight champion Manny Pacquiao or former six-dvision champion Oscar De La Hoya in 2009. Hatton wants to have two more fights before retirement with the Pacquiao/De La Hoya bout being the last of his career. [details]

What he ment to say is "I want De La Hoya or Pacquiao to retire me"

hatton should pick someone his own size. oscar wont fight him, but if they ever fought he would put hatton into an emergency room.

pacquiao, while i think he may compete at 140 pounds, only had 1 fight at lightweight. might be too soon, but also might be a risky move but with a reward

Didn't he already turn a fight with De La Hoya down?...

Damn, that second gif in your sig is BRUTAL. I could watch it all day.

And man, Manny at 140? He started at 106. What the hell....

Lucian Bute is a monster

Hatton needs to keep his focus on Paulie at this point and quit looking down the road. If he doesn't come into the fight 100% it could be a long night.

so i guess fatton wants to retire with 3 losses lol. he should just retire now...

Hatton has been very overrated.... DLH would beat him, Pacman might even beat him.

Is he fighting Malignaggi?
