Cooper Advises Hatton To Retire After 2 More

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

In a recent interview with the Manchester Evening News, British boxing legend Henry Cooper feels that current WBA welterweight champion Ricky Hatton is already a legend in his counrty, and because of that he should fight two more times and retire. [details]

[King Koyle]

TWO I would say five or six at least.

[RichPorter]

I think Hatton wants to go after Mayweather and take the no.1 pound for pound spot before he retires.

[RAESAAD]

He is'nt even 30 is he?I say atleast 5 more fights.......he has'nt even really been in any wars.

[baya]

only way this **** retires is if his next two are against cotto and pbf.

****en POS trying to get out of the game w/ fat pockets and mediocre opposition.

fought 38 tomato cans and beat one over the hill champion and hes thinking about retiring

Hatton has never struggled to make weight, he's often been able to drop 40+lbs in just a few weeks and has actually struggled to keep the weight on (sometimes having to eat seven meals a day just to keep the weight on).

But losing 50+lbs 41 times in nine years is going to take an awful lot out of you.

TWO I would say five or six at least.

Perhaps, he has had 41 fights already though!

Not sure if its sour g****s with Cooper or not, he was a nearly man, it obviously make sense to get out at the top and I agree that with Hattons style he will need to cut it short sooner rather than later but I would hope for at least 3 or 4 fights with him fighting either Castillo, Cotto or Mayweather or perhaps all three!

Amen about Cotto and PBF...no way Hatton can retire without facing AT LEAST two of the Cotto, PBF and Margarito triumvriate (if he's staying at 147).

Whatever happened to conquering America? Collazo was a solid first opponent, but now Urkal?? UGH.
