    Zab Judah - Hatton would beat Judah, Judah's very skillfull but he has a suspect chin, and has never fought anyone near Hatton's level with regards to youth/strength/velocity.

    Floyd Mayweather - I hope this fight happens as I think it's one that Hatton stands a very good chance of winning! Hatton will be too strong for mayweather.

    Cotto - I think Cotto stands a very good chance of beating Hatton, he hit's harder than people give him credit for!

    ouma or wuld it be to much moving up that much in weight - I can't see Hatton moving up to Light-middleweight

    oscar de la hoya-same thing - Same reason

    shane mosely - same reason

    witter - So long as Hatton doesn't get caught by one of Witter's haymakers, (which is unlikely) hatton would out point Witter to a UD because of his high work rate.

      All I will say is that it will take something very special to beat Ricky Hatton.

          shane mosely - same reason

          Shane's back at welterweight now Martinwbc just curious what you think would happen between Hatton and Shane. I personally think if you give shane a couple more fights at the weight he'll be back in the kind of shape he was in before he moved up to light-middle and could get a decision v Hatton, it would be close and could go either way.

            cant agree there buddy im afraid, i think the vernon fights ruined shane, he hasnt leigtimately won a fight for ages and looks to have lost that sparkling balance and speed personally I think Mosely is shot.

            but each to their own bro! he certainly would be a welcome additon at welter if he can recapture his old form though

                It seems I'm one of a very few who believe Shane can recaputure his old form just blind loyality me thinks. Yep he definetley hasn't been the same since the Vernon fights but moving to light-middle wasn't a good decision, he's moved back down now and got a new trainer so hopefully he'll get back to the basics to try to get back to his old self. he did look shot in his last fight but I want to see a couple more tune ups from him befor I decide if he's really done (I got to believe). He's still pretty quick though with some good power and a solid chin, I can't see Ricky stopping him so he'd still stand a chance.

                  agreed mosely does have a decent chin.

                  how he managed to see the final bell in the forrest first fight i'll never know. good effort.

                  I hope he does come back always struck me as a decent affable likeable chap Shane.

                    Yeah he does seem a genuine nice guy, I wish him all the best.

                    Man I hated Vernon Forrest after that fight, he beat one of my favourites.
