    Hatton-Khan in the pipeline

    Frank Warren thinks Hatton will be knocked out by Manny.He also wants Khan to beat Barrera then get Hatton for a domestic showdown.

    If Khan beats Barrera (which I think he will do),who do you think would win between Hatton and Khan?

    Hatton by destruction. He is not ready for someone the calibre of Hatton yet.

    His next step should be Katsidis or Diaz.

      while I agree with the sentiment i have heard rumours khan is beginning to struggle at 135 so he may have to move up.

        Hard to say which one... normally I would say Katsidis, because I just don't think he is very good at all, but Khan's chin is not the best, so a power puncher is not a good matchup.

        Diaz is soooooo good though. Man, there are few fighters in the sport that I think are better than Juan Diaz (assuming that is the Diaz you are talking about).

          This is crazy if true. Warren is normally way conservative with his fighters, he's let him get KO'd by a huge puncher, up against Barrera, then Hatton.

          Christ, Amir's gona end up ruined.

            Nah, David.

              Okay, that makes more sense.

              David Diaz is a fairly safe matchup. He's not a huge puncher, and is a former world titlist.

                Although saying that, maybe a fight with Juan Diaz would be a good idea. Juan is not a one punch KO puncher, but is a very skilled boxer...as is Khan. I also believe Khan is faster. A good matchup, but maybe not for a couple of years.

                  It's way too early to even talk about that fight...even if Khan beats Barrera. Hatton will either be coming off of a big loss and looking to rebound or sitting on top of the world and looking for bigger more established names than Khan.

                    Thats why Hatton will fight Khan,he will consider Khan a safe opponent.Hatton fought a no name guy after losing to Floyd so Khan will be tempting enough.
