    What are some good comeback fights for Hatton?

    I say let him fight Malignaggi first (a belt holder who can't punch) then maybe somebody like calling Brandon Rios up to 147 and fight him. If he beats those 2 guys then he can get a big payday

      I think he should target the 154 pound weight class if he wants a big pay day. We know a certain red headed hooker won't have a problem fighting a natural 140 pounder.

        I'm guessing he'll fight a bum or two then he'll only fight for big pay days.

        Possibly a fight with Amir Khan down the line.

          How bout' a Castillo rematch?

          I think Castillo didn't look so bad a couple of weeks back. If Hatton isn't in pretty decent form, he might get beat.

            Chop Chop Corley, that would be a fairly tough comeback fight but Chop has fought a ton of quality opposition but have never fought Hatton.

              Good idea, risk free fight, if he beats Castillo (which he should) fight on, if he loses, he can retire knowing he gave it everything he had (and not get hurt by a prime or hungry fighter). If he were to jump in with Paulie, I think Hatton is better and can beat him, but ring rust is no joke and Paulie will be hungry for revenge.

                You know, there might the makings of a pretty good old-timer's tourney around and about 140-150lbs. You gotta' be older than 35 and have 40+ fights under your belt or something. Maybe you gotta' be a former champ. Etc...

                You could maybe throw Barrera into that mix. Morales is already there and JMM ain't far from it if he isn't ready now.

                Who else?

                    I'm sure Paulie would love the idea of that fight. He's been clamoring for a rematch with Hatton for a while.
