LOL. Maybe we're both seeing what we want to

I wouldn't watch Hatton if I didn't find him exciting, but I think he's biting off more than he can chew here.

June 4th in Manchester????

If Micky Vann is the ref, Tzyu will have to KO Hatton just to get a draw.

Anumore details about this? Have they signed the contract? When is the presser?

I can't understand the level of hatred he gets on here because he is good to watch and the other guys are all as guilty of fighting lower level opposition than they should recently.

I'm not convinced KT is still in his prime which is why I'm taking Hatton to beat him. His level of competition isn't significantly better than Hatton's or the other top guys over the last 5 years so he's not really been tested in this time either. You could say Mitchell but he's never beaten anyone of note apart from the same guys as Hatton, and he looked scared ****less in the 2nd fight. Urkhal, who's nothing special, gave him a fairly tough time too and stunned him a couple times with his powder-puff punches which doesn't bode well for KT's punch resistance.

It's all conjecture though, there's only one way to find out.

The tickets go on sale 3rd February so looks like it's a done deal.

I look ofrward to this fight. I think KT will win, but Hatton has the ability to make it a great fight. Hatton's style if fun to watch and I think he will give KT a better run for his money than most think. But ultimately, KT's vast experience in top level fights will start to show and wear out the tough Hatton. I will finally give Hatton the credit he deserves. But I think KT will win in a good fight. If its by KO it will be late...I think Hatton can take him into the deep rounds.

From what I've seen, and I've seen about a dozen Hatton/Vann fights, Vann is known for letting Hatton be rough. He's not so forgiving with the opponents.

I've never seen any bias from Vann, there have been a couple of times when Vann let the opponent try to rough Hatton up(especially the Magee fight).

I just dont think it matters that much anyway, Vann's still a good ref and i dont see any problems if he does the fight. Boxings a rough sport so its to be expected.

i think its unfair to say vann is bias hes a world class respected ref ,he is known for letting fighter be rough its not just a hatton thing i,v seen almost all of hattons fights with an exception of 3 or 4 and and i think hatton will give zoo more problems than u think , i,m not saying i think he,ll win cos i dont think he will, but it wont be east for zoo and maybe hatton can pull it out on da night ya never know
