    I would love to see Ricky winning first before his final departure from boxing...

      I would prefer Hatton to retire.

      If he wants to continue, he should have a fairwell fight.

          I'd like to see Ricky in some more fights. Sure he cannot hang with the best of the best, but he's proven he is still a class above most. He could go after Bradley or even JMM if he is to lose to Mayweather, as I don't think JMM would have as much power as Manny at 140, so Hatton could have a good chance of getting a win. He only has two losses against the P4P #1's and ALOT of fighters would lose to those guys. There is no shame in it. I'd give him 2 or 3 more fights and then call it a day. Get a better trainer/training camp and really learn from the experience.

            Ricky HAS to fight to not let the Pacquiao fight be the last image we'll remember about him. I am a De La Hoya fan, but i can't see Oscar as anything else but Pacquiao's *****.
            Oscar should himself fight a bum, and Ricky should fight Junior witter.

              You're just not the same after a knockout like that. And given under the circumstances....i.e. biggest stage, the whole world watching,your fiance, your parents, 25000 of yor fans who travelled and spent a ****load of money. Im not sure how competitive Hatton would be with even a b-level type. Pac took his soul that night. Give him a farewell fight in Manchester in front of his fans against a sacrificial lamb and he should call it a career.

                I don`t care what is the reason that made ODLH say that (though it is quite obvious). But i actually do agree with him.

                Yes, Hatton has lost, and lost devastatingly. But why should that mean that he should stop doing his business. I don`t mind him continuing fighing and earning money...

                  Retire.

                  I've had enough of Hugman and his empty promises.

                      Hatton fights someone who can punch he will get hurt again. His durability went a long time ago. He needs to retire. I shudder to think what someone like Kendal Holt or Ricardo Torres would of done to him. Even Witter could blast him out imo.
