I'd certainly think so. Although Hatton has been embarassed by Manny, he's not an over the hill boxer. In December last year he boxed very well and tore Malignaggi apart.
As good as Roach is, you can't teach someone to take a punch. 'Glass jaw' is an understatement. If Hatton with the power he has at 140lbs could connect with Khan, it would be over as quickly as it was for Hatton on Saturday.
Although he has the hand speed, Khan doesn't have the power of Pacquiao, and certainly wouldn't at 140lbs, so it is unlikely he'd stop Hatton within a couple of rounds. It is unrealistic to think someone as good as Hatton wouldn't catch Khan at least once in a 12 round fight, and to be honest, I think that's all he'd need.

Same. I'd love him to box at Wembley, and I'd definately be going.

Yeah I agree with that. When he beat Malignaggi he was fantastic, could have dropped him a few times but he clung to Hatton like his life depended on it
I used to like Khan but went off him, and can't stand him now. Once Hatton has gone, who is there to support? Apart from who ever Khan comes up against

I'd undoubtedly want Pacquiao to win. He's a very humble guy and hard to dislike. Mayweather on the other hand is an arrogant git.
Not sure who'd win, but it would be one hell of a fight. Easily the best fight of the the century thus far.
Apologised to the fans but nothing formal.
Want him to win, I don't mind him. He is arrogant but he is funny with it. Makes me laugh when ever I listen to him.
It would also knock that smile of Roach face, but I don't mind Pac-Man he is one cool fella. Was a shame he did not go over to Hattons corner to see how he was, but he seems nice genuine guy.
While on subject of boxing, fight night round 4 is coming out. It looks great!

hatton leads with his head . no wonder he got knocked down 4 time . smacked out
winning like never before. decoys. mouse traps. chicken wings. lollie pops. shepperds. the crusher. grapples. big league. In 1935 The Dragon Slayers as they were known defeated Canterbury bulldogs 91-6, which is still the biggest win in the Club's History. In 1907, the St George district had a club in the Sydney rugby union competition. Interestingly, the team's area was referred to as the 'Illawarra suburbs'. A resolution to form a St George rugby league club was made at a local meeting held in early 1908, but the movement faltered and collapsed. St George, wearing the district colours of red and white, played in the NSWRL's Third Grade competition in 1910, and formed a President's Cup team in 1911. References were found at the time to district teams being called 'The Saints'.the perfect 11
