      Good fight, I would watch it. Okay both are coming from pretty heavy defeats but they are both good fighters and there styles would gel into a great fight. I could see quite a few KD's in this one but I would go for a Marquez close decision

        I'd love to see this. It's a winnable fight for both guys and would be huge here in the UK. Though thinking about it, I do think Hatton should stay retired. He has no real reason to fight on and Marquez is still a quality fighter. I'd still pick Ricky win at 140 but, as I said, despite it being a massive fight it probably shouldn't happen.

          Marquez would stop Hatton. That's a tough fight for Hatton. A precise counter puncher vs. a wide open brawler.

            my thoughts are who cares who wins, lets just sit back and enjoy!

            Hatton has the mauling strength and punching power to most definitely trouble Marquez, but Marquez has the ring savy and punch selection to pick at the gaping holes in Hatton's defense.

            which = one brutal, high action, top level boxing match

            the Brits deserve to see a Hatton fight in Britain.

                At his best, I wouldn't call Hatton a wide open brawler, but no doubt, Marquez's style definitely poses problems for Ricky.

                  Well what ever fight Marquez does take next will be under the microscope, can you imagine how much it will devalue Mayweather's win if losses to Hatton ?

                    Personally I'd rather see Hatton fight Bradley.

                    Not only would it be more meaningful for Hattons legacy at 140 but if Bradley won it would be an appropriate passing of the torch to the next generation.
