Hatton On ITV telly in uk says

[fowler26]

Hatton was interviewed on ITV telly after recieving an mbe by the prince of Wales.

He was asked who he wants to fight, he went on about paulie malannigi guy for a bit then he said the one I want is floyd mayweather and I have told my dad thats the fight I want and if his dad can make the fight he will do it.

hatton will lose a wide ud if he fights floyd.

poppa's boy!

FLoyd will UD hatton by a solid margin. Floyd will keep a good range and not get cought up in Hattons brawling/holding tactics. Floyd will keep so much distance that it will probably be an unsatisfying fight to watch. Either way, one of them will lose their 0 record.:good

[Lostmykeys]

I've never seen Hatton up against a boxer or defensive fighter.

Anyone know of a fight where he goes up against a boxer?

Anyone know of a fight where he goes up against a boxer?Nope he hasnt, and that is one of my biggest knocks on Hatton. It appears that Hatton has always seemed to get out of fights with that type of fighter. Witter, Mitchell, Harris, Corley, twice turned down fights with Floyd. I really think that there is something there, there is a reason that he has never fought a standout boxer. Closest thing to a standout boxer is Callazo, whos style is closer to that of hattons then that of a boxer. We all remember how that one turned out.

Insert from article:

Ricky Hatton's father, Ray, said yesterday that Floyd Mayweather would have to come down to light-welterweight if he wanted to figure in a contest between the two undefeated fighters in November.

Mayweather's last contest was at light-middleweight, one stone heavier than Hatton's division, and the American has since indicated that he will now fight as a welterweight, at 10st 7lb. Ray Hatton's statement seems to rule out the possibility of a Hatton-Mayweather fight this year, with New York's Paulie Malignaggi, the WBA light-welterweight champion, still most likely to get the Hatton engagement.

Translation; We're not ready yet so will take on a smaller slick fighter first to see how we do, and if successfull we'll then and only then take on Mayweather next year!!

Hatton has the power, skills, aggression to beat PBF. I'm sure he's PBF's nightmare opponent. However, PBF is also a nightmare for Hatton - esp if he turns southpaw for the majority of the fight, which if he's as talented as some suggest, he should be capable of.
