The guy must be close to an eliminator shot now. Hopefully him and Adnan Amer can get it on for the English title in the fight that Matthews entire career has been building towards. Please make this happen Hattons dad.

He's a world class operator, huuuuggge puncher, lightning speed, exciting, he's got the lot and hopefully now starts getting the fights he deserves. He should be headlining bills in Vegas/New York not stuck on some crappy undercard.

He done pretty well last night against Ben Tackie any upcoming prospect beating Ben Tackie would be put forward for a world title fight a fight or 2 down the line. Why not.

Mayweather v Hatton :D :D
The only fight that might lure PBF out of retirement :hey

you think he should skip the central area and go straight for the english? :yikes

I think going for the central area belt would just slow his progress down. He needs the fights to match his ambition and that means going after Adnan for the English.
surreal deal

Matthew Hatton is not a legend.He isnt,Trust us.
Ali,Robinson,Duran,Leonard....People like THAT are 'legends'....you see the pattern emerging?
Hope this helps.

He's a good honest to goodness pro,I don't see what's the problem myself.
If matthew applied those tactics to every fight he would ave a much better looking record.
He impressed me, I thought even aold old Tackie would be enough to stop Matthew Hatton, i especially like the counter right uppercut come hook he kept throwing.
I think he should look for a rematch for the commonwealth title, if he boxes clever like he did yesterday, hed probably win.
I doubt it.
Tackie is on a losing run. He's had a lot of tough fights, he's taken bucket loads of punishment, and he was never skilled. He always relied on physical elements which are faded, so he's virtually a walking chin.
Pretty sure Watson would beat him again.

Dont you think its possible that he could get an alphabet title shot in a few fights?
Look at the cards he is fighting on?
Ricky is well in with GBP, Why couldnt his brother get a fight for a title on the Hatton/pac/oscar undercard.
Dont get me wrong he would be pitched in at the deep end and would lose but I dont think its beyond the realms of possibility that he gets a shot.
Do you remember Gary Lockett getting a shot against Pavlik? Matthew Hatton has more pull than Lockett.

He may have more pulling power, 100% due to his brother by the way, but as far as skill levels go Mathew Hatton makes Gary Lockett look like Sugar Ray Robinson.
Couldn't see Gary Lockett, and I don't even like the bloke, losing to domestic British competition with the kind of records that the guys who defeated Hatton had:
12-2
19-15-2
3-2-1
9-43-3

The reason he didn't have to point it out to anyone is that it was so obviously a joke.........but not obvious to single brain-celled fuckwits like you :good

I have seen all four of the fights that Hatton jr lost.
The first one was very close, probably a draw
The second was stopped on a cut - should have been allowed to continue (Rd. 2 I think)
The third he was winning easily but get jobbed by Alan Bosworth
The fourth he was shit, and lost easily
All in all, he needs to get away from his brother and make his own career :deal

Yeah his pulling power is due to his brother no doubt.
It was a solid performance the other night against a 'name' in ben tackie.
If it was Khan who fought him then a world title shot would be mooted 1-3 fights down the line as he has just beaten 'ben tackie!' a solid good class operator.
Hatton could get a shot at a title.

Haha.....
It is true that if someone like Khan or A. N. Other hypejob beat a guy like Tackie they would be ready for a title, but because it is Hatton jr the opponent is old and shot!
In truth, Tackie is pretty old, and pretty shot, but that doesn't take away from the fact that Hatton jr won impressively in a career best performance.
What he needs to do is get straight back in the ring, about 8-10 weeks from now, and fight someone young and decent - perhaps look for an eliminator for the British title?

Well Matthew does have a decent chin........
:lol:
For me he simply needs to step up his oppo to see how good he actually is/can be - no point just freeloading for the remainder of his career :deal

decent skills, good chin and a alrigth pop....but sadly he doesnt throw any punches, doesnt stay around to get hit and again doesnt throw any punches.
why dont we call him Matthew 'the mystery' Hatton becuase we havnt a clue what he does except have a face that looks like ricky.

It has SKY PPV written all over it:good
Mathew "my brothers Ricky Hatton" Hatton v Kevin "I've forgot how to box" Anderson.
Despite having recently (post-Nuumbembe) had his body taken over by a xenomorph from a race of unco-ordinated non-boxing aliens, I would still pick Anderson to do a number on him.

Ok so Ben Tackie is washed up! It was still a very good performance from Matthew (did you even watch the fight?). He looked sharp and fast, threw good combinations that were accurate.
The fact that he is Ricky Hattons brother seems to dull the fact that he won a fight many said he wouldn't (me included).
Give the guy a break. He seems a honest hardworking lad.
