How do you all see this fight playing out? Stylewise I thinkt his fight would be an absolute NIGHTMARE for Hatton. But at the same time I doubt Khan's chin could hold up from a hard punch of hattons. at the same time, you actually need to be able to land a shot against a fighter to KO him, thats why Wlad Klitschko and Lennox went so far in thier careers despite having bad chins.
Anyways, in 1-2 years I think this fight can happen. Thoughts?

Omg...don't get too carried away...
Hatton would walk him down and destroy him...
Khan's not on that level...yet...
Why would this be on absolute nightmare for Hatton? :nut
Even if Khan had a solid chin this would be a nightmare for Amir Khan.
Khan can't deal with pressure well. He has no inside fighting ablity, he can't fight inside and he can't defend himself inside and has trouble seeing hooks coming. Which is Hatton's money punch. Khan has zero power to trouble Hatton and stop him coming forward. At 140 Khan would lose a few percent of speed, Hatton is quick himself and would easily pin him down, especially when all he has to worry about is flurries of pitter pats.
Real Khan = KO'd in 2 rounds, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and say he survives the first with great trouble
Solid chinned (and body) Khan = KO'd in 5 rounds

Wow..comparing Khan to Lennox is some stretch
Lennox got starched by HUGE punches from massive guys. Arguably lucky punches, anomalies in a great career. He took a few too and dealt with them. From Klit, Tyson, Holyfield no less.
Whereas Amir is getting wobbled and floored at a lower level, by guys who are smaller than him.
Not only that, he gets tagged a fair bit too, it's not like he's elusive.
He'd have no chance at all with Hatton. He'd be steamrollered.

Khan punches harder than Paulie M bit doesn't have anywhere near the same chin. This would be a similar matchup stylewise, I can't see Khan being able to keep Hatton off him and getting KO'd very early withing the first 3 rounds.

Hatton via murder.
Frank will wait a few years before making this fight; let Hatton gather more rust, and then throw him to the wolves........unless Khan has been Ko'd again by this point.
Not a fight to make now.

Barely.
Nothing significant enough to make me think he's going to make Hatton think twice.

I'd say Khan's shots are stinging but he's shown no real power to speak of
Barrera said he couldn't actually even feel them which might be a bit harsh lol
He's never had anything other than ref stoppages, even against bums. That says it all.
His power at the level he is currently operating at is about the same as Calzaghe's at world class. Calzaghe at least KO'd a couple bums!

I think Khan is stiff puncher (no more than that) but Hatton takes a decent shot.

Hatton by early KO.
This is the worst possible fight for Khan in lightweight/LWW.

So because of OTHER people asking questions like this about Khan, you do not like Khan? How you work that one out sunshine?

if you retards actually read the question he said what will the outcome be in a year or two, not tomorrow, so we already know that hattonw will be near the end of his career, while at that time khan will most likely be hitting his peak, that's not good, and normally favours the fighter hitting his peak.
like i said they will most likely end up fighting, and khan will most likely end up winning.
fuckinhell some of you have reading problems or you're just so fucking thick.
I can't see Khan ever beating Hatton.
It's the worst possible styles match up for Khan.

WTF again:-(
So you can predict career graduations, can you?
If Pac destroys Hatton, and its a terrible ageing fight for the Hitman, then we can talk about this bout. But what if Hatton wins, then goes from strength-to-strength, and is still at the top of his game? What then? I'll tell you what! Hypothesis in the bloody extreme that is what it is.

Questions like this are why people do not like Amir Khan.
I said in a couple years! And I never said Khan would win, I was just asking what people thought. I would also Pick Hatton to win right now but in 2011, 2012 after a couple of years with Roach I think this could be an intriging fight. Read the thread before making such statements. Thanks

Get it now dog? Give the trhead a read first then post your WTF!
Give it a read yourself, muppet.
The TS says he can see this fight happening down the line, but he doesn't ask the question relating to the future..............because that would be a bit stupid.....do you see?
This is boxing for fucks sake; the terrain can change overnight, nevermind over two years.
As of now Hatton murders Khan.
Two years from now we might have Cloverfield......giant alien monsters marching about Manchester.
Two years?!? Catch yourself on.

I'd say in a couple of years Hatton will be retired.

No you didn't.
You outlined the fight, asking for predictions, and then said you could see this fight taking place in a couple of years time.
Did you seriously expect us to make a prediction right now based on a fight that might take place in two years time? Are you measuring an improvement in Khans work against a deterioration in Hatton's over a two year period?
Because, as of right now Hatton beats Khan easy..........in two years? Who the fuck knows? I dont, and I dare anyone to make an accurate prediction. Too many imponderables to mention.

who knows he might even come out of retirement for a Khan fight which would be a massive payday. either way Hatton will lose.
Hatton will smash khan apart if they fought now, but the fight will happen at the worst time for Hatton, and the best time for Khan. Hatton will be finished in a couple of years time, his lifestyle is all wrong.
the problem for Khan is Hatton is such a national respected fighter that even beating him will do no good.
If they play it right, publish it as a passing of the torch kind of bout, then it could work out fine.
Plus, if its a competitive fight, Khan could still emerge with a lot of credit.
It really depends on the setting.

What makes you think Hatton will come back aged 33 to fight Khan for the money after earning the best part of 30 million quid??

The erse limpets are out in drogues today lol
Khan has already shown us that he DOES NOT fight people who are legitimate lightweights never mind a lightwelter......remember what happened when he faced Prescott(his first ever lightweight opponent)
Khan will be wrapped in cotton wool for the remainder of his career and will never have a significant win on his record because the people around him know his chin is useless.
Khan has the weakest chin I've ever seen and I have been a boxing fan for many years.
Hatton v Khan today...Hatton via easy KO
Hatton v Khan anytime I expect the same result unless Hatton is very very very very shot but surely Amir doesnt want to be known as the kid who only fights shot fighters or smaller men (or both at the same time lol) His reputation is practically non existent amongst boxing fans (ok, his little amir brigade are still there)
A Mere Khon needs to prove he can mix it with opponents his own size and until then he is still a no name imo.
Hatton beats Khan in 3 years 4 years or 5 years. Even if he hasn't trained and weighs 170lbs.

In 2 years time Hatton will be retired, But If Khan stays with Roach for 2 years, and has defended his world title a few times at LWW and Hatton wanted the fight, Khan would do a Mayweather on Hatton, Khan in 2 years could be a great counter puncher.
Right now Hatton would KO Khan.

Questions like this are why people do not like Amir Khan.
Seems like my quote upset some people.
Firstly, I was not a Khan fan before the Prescott fight, but I cheered him on against Barrera, so I guess I am a fan of his now.
Now the reason why I said 'questions like this are why people do not like Amir Khan' is because once he gets a decent win, the hype goes into overdrive for a fighter who still is not proven at world level, and he is then matched up against some of the top p4p fighters in the world (it was the likes of Murray and Thaxton after the Fagan fight), which is just wrong.

But at the same time I doubt Khan's chin could hold up from a hard punch of hattons.
Gee ,you really think so?
Most people would bet their left nut that it would be over as soon as Hatton lands one decent punch.

Godleyboxing you need to give that midget a rematch, it's the only route to redemption and you know it:rasta
