DAMN, if Popo quit against Chico what's his chance against Ricky Hatton?

Your thoughts folks?

i don't know what the fu.. freitas is thinking that he can fight in the 140lbs division.......let alone fight somebody as big as hatton....there would be a huge size difference and no way could freitas handle hatton's size....

I know that's why It's just ****i'n ridiculous, at least in my opinion.

Yeah at 5'6, he wasn't tiny at 130 but he wasn't big either. Either way, I hope he comes back strong to sort of erase the memory of the Chico fight, or at least lessen the memory.

freitas better come up with something good!!! bring up an upset hehe

i really doubt this fight will happen........there is absolutely no logic in it at all and it would be career suicide for freitas....at the same time, i don't think it would do much for hatton...so where is the logic?

Freitas is deffinatly gunna have to fight carefully cause if he tries to go toe to toe like he did in the Juan Carlos Ramirez fight he might as well take up another sport

i just want to see hatton fight in the US with boxer with a known name and find out the real hatton!! if he can stay with the big dogs!!!!!

if this is true this will be a good fight.man,freitas has a one inch reach advantage.hatton blows up between fights and is not that bigger than freitas.hatton has a big head which is making you think he's bigger.

if this fight isnt held in england with parris reffing ace has a chance.i would think it will be a toe to toe fight.
