      Khan says this just when Ricky has started to put his feet up and get the taste for pies and guiness back again.............Hatton should just retire!

          I hope this fight happens just so Ricky can do to Khan what I would love to and smash the hell out of him. This guy got KO'd by Prescott and now wants to fight Hatton. What a joker

He'd know what he is up against, and he'd know what he has to do. Ricky would put too much pressure on Khan, and possibly force him into a style which leaves him far too open. Ricky T/KO within four rounds is my opinion. People tend to forget that Ricky's only losses were against the best in the business. Also, Ricky's chin is not glass. It's not great, but it's not glass.
            Couldn't have said it better myself...

              Hatton doesn't have the one-punch power to expose Khan's chin
              and has a shaky enough chin to be put down by Khan. Hatton won't see all of Khan's punches coming and I think he could have problems like he did with the shot speed of Mayweather and Pacquiao. Then again, Hatton is an extremely experienced fighter and no one to be underestimated. I could also see him mauling Khan and winning a decision. Don't know why, but I can't him winning by stoppage, despite Khan's chin.

              If it happens, I'll make a prediction then, but right now I'd siding with Khan.
              Willie Limond knocked Khan down, but you think Hatton doesn't have the 1 punch power to KO him? Willie Limond has got 8 KO's in 32 Wins

                Hatton was rocking Paulie Mallinaggi every time he threw a punch and with his solid chin that is saying something. Ricky has underrated power IMO.

                  Smart move by Amir, but I wonder if Hatton has anything left, he's still young, but the way he abuses his body and the way he's lost his fights can really mess a guy up mentally.

                  Amir would be the favorite if the fight ever happens.

                    I havent decided on who I think would win this fight, its edging towards hatton but it all depends on how Khan beats Kotlenik

                      I think his hand speed would be too much for him. Unless he was caught of course.
                      Kahn is not Pacquiao and he would eventually get hit by Hatton, who would be more at home against an orthodox fighter like Amir.

                      I still say Ricky would stop the vastly inexperienced Kahn if they were to fight anytime soon.
