    What I heard today. Hope it's not true.

    Look at it this way...it's the best possible opponent for him. Paulie certainly can't hurt him. perhaps slap him silly, but no real damage inflicted.

    It's a safe match-up whether he wins or loses.

    If he wins he picks up a belt at 147.

    I think Paulie KO'd his last opponent. He's turning into a power puncher these days.

    Stupidity if its true. His money is made and when he was still relatively fresh he fought hard against Mayweather at 147 and gave him a better fight than Ortiz and a host of other guys. He needs to stay retired.

    This would be a terrible idea. I have an awful image in my head of Fencepost Boy slapping the shit out of a guy who would have brutally killed him in his prime...

    Sounds like a terrible idea. Ricky certainly isn't Floyd who ''retires'' and spends 5 days a week in a boxing gym, he's spent three years drinking stella and eating kebab meat

    You're saying Hatton wasn't in his prime when he beat Paulie the first time?

    Seems to me most Hattonites consider his prime as pre-Mayweather.

    TKO and I believe it was on cuts.

    That should take Paulie's KO total to 6.

    Paulie could embarrass Hatton...doubt he'd hurt him. It's more or less Trinidad vs Winky Wright II.

    It was a joke my friend. Paulie and Sergio Mora are tied for the weakest punchers in boxing.

    Fencepost boy is Amir Khan, not Paulie. Try to keep up.

    I think Paulie would beat him up this time if Hatton decides to make a comeback.

    Paulie doesn't beat anyone up. But I agree that he wins.

    BTW this is an awful decision by Hatton, he is the kind of guy that is going to be crap in a comeback. He has a very high energy, young man's style.

    Also surely our local lad, lives in a council house, working class hero has a few mil stored away?

    Hatton is probably a heavy weight these days

    REED Understands if Hatton Doesn't Want the Pacquaio Fight to Be the Last Taste in the Mouths of his Fans, but he Should Take a Relative "Gimme", then Retire for Good...

    Sadly, Malignaggi ISN'T a Gimme for Hatton Anymore...

    LOL, all I can say is poor Ricky Fatton in that fight. Ricky would have to drop about 35lbs though to fight GSP at 170.

    That's the correct selling of it on fightbeat now (i think in my mind)
