    Just wondering what you guys over in the US think of our boy Hatton. Apparently he's been offered a massive amount of money to fight in Vegas next time but he wants MSG. His opponent will be Malignaggi

    Anyone think Malignaggi can beat him and can someone let me know in general how Hatton is viewed over there, how big his profile is etc.?

    I'm a fan of his and I think he probably gained many fans after his last fight here. Even though he lost (Mayweather vs Hatton), the guy is just a good fighter. He will kill that Malignaggi kid. All other boxers from there are wankers... ;)

    Personally since his fight against Tzu, he has been crap. He hasn't beaten anyone good, and he got rocked by Mayweather. He will not beat any of the top boxers out there in the welterweight division. Mosley, Judah, Cotto, Margarito can all take him out. If he can catch Malignaggi with a clean shot, he can knock him out. But Mali's style could be tough for Hatton.

    I was a fan of his until he got 0wned by Floyd. Now he seems very boring to me. All he does is throw 2 wild punches, lean in, clinch then shove like a heavyweight. Then the ref breaks em up then hes at it again. He is boring. He is too small for the Welterweight division. He should move down to Super Lightweight and fight Pacqiao.
