    If Hatton comes back he's only good enough of the likes of Malignaggi and a few defences against gatekeepers. He showed in the Pac fight that's he past his best, his resistance has gone and the years of drinking & snorting had finally caught up with him.

    It's a shame really, he could've been a lot more in the sport and still fighting now. Do I ever think he'd avenge his losses? No. But he'd still be relevant in what is a good LWW division.

    His T-rex arms hinder him at 147 and anyway return featuring that weight will be short lived. If Hatton could've gotten down to LW safely and was strong at the weight he would've been perfectly suited.
    going back to 140 would be short lived imo. did you see him on the scales for malignaggi and pacquiao fights? he looked like a zombie. id imagine he hasnt seen 10 stone since the day before the pac fight.

      I know, I just wish he took care of himself outside the ring. I hope he doesn't return, he should focus on his promotional company and the prospects on his books.

        I wouldn't mind seeing Hatton embarrass himself in a comeback. I know I'll be pulling hard for whomever it is he fights to win in spectacular fashion

          It's not a matter of should or shouldn't, Malignaggi has offered him a straight road to the title. Paulie wants the fight.

            I would frickin LOVE to see the hitman back!! Yeah there is a worry that he will get smoked but any fight of his in the UK would sell huge.
            I spoke to a lad that knows the Hattons recently and he said Ricky has been in rehab again which is the reason for gettin in shape again. Hope he was wrong and we get some more of those awesome M.E.N nights

                    Now I wouldn't mind that match-up. Morales is further out of his prime than Marquez, so I think it would be competitive.

                      To bad theres no one he trusts that can tell him he's DONE!! This young man has the potential of getting seriously hurt! When he steps up to the upper level of fighters he gets blown out easily. I thought he had some dough saved but if he doesn't someone will try to make a buck off him, to bad! Ray.
