    Khan Split With Warren = Hatton Fight In The Making?

    I think a big factor in Khan's choice to leave Warren is the prospect of facing Hatton. Hatton maintained that he couldn't fight Khan whilst he was being promoted by Warren due to past differences. I'm not sure if Hatton was just making an excuse as not to have to fight Khan. But I'm 90% sure Khan would love to fight Hatton. He wants to prove he is the best British fighter, he doesn't want to be in Hatton's shadow, until he fights Hatton everyone will compare them both and probably side with Hatton. And Khan probably thinks he can make light work of Hatton.

    And a fight with Hatton would be a huge fight which would boost his publicity even further and fill his pockets more than any fight has done for him before.

    Anyway, I'd love to see it.

    It really depends on what Ricky has left.

    The Ricky Hatton that showed up for the Mayweather fight would murder Khan. It's hard to tell exactly what he had for Pacquiao, he just fought that fight so ******ly. Also you really have to be worried about betting on a fighter who has no chin if he gets in there against a noted ****er. That said, Hatton has also been hurt a lot against very average opposition.

      Yep. That is probably why the Paulie fight is so interesting. He wants to beat Paulie worse than Hatton did.

        Richard Schaefer's just been on Sky Sports News stating that he intends to get in contact with Ricky's father to get something organised!

        I think Sky really want that fight.

            Hatton said he wants to fight a P4P boxer or a world champion, Khan is neither if he drops the title.

              Frank Warren will be on suicide watch if this fight happens.

              Probably the biggest money fight in British boxing's history between 2 fighters he used to promote, and he wont get a penny.

              Lets all shed a tear for Franky!!!!
