I admire his confidence, although you don't see many other boxers planning ahead to the next 2 or 3 fights.

His next fight will be the 2nd hardest of his career (after Mayweather jr) so he should get down to business and worry about then, then focus on any possible next opponents.

Froch v Taylor the week before the Hatton fight. Belting!

Not posted on here for a while so apologies for bringing up old fights.

Khan v Barrera:
How did this fight get to round 5, yes Khan was beating him on points. Mainly due to the fact he fought how he always does and throws 400 punches a second landing less than half of them, none of them hurting Barrera. Big clash of heads, big cut, should have been stopped a lot earlier IMO.

Diaz v Marquez:
What a fight, Marquez hurt early on but shows the true warrior in him carrying on to force a 9th round stoppage, and what a stoppage it was.

If Khan goes into the ring with any of David Diaz, Juan Diaz, Marquez, Casamayor, Katsidis or Romanov he will get his ass well and truly beat, he is just not powerful enough to trouble any of these boxers.

Just watched Burns v Gomez, Gomez tried to be his old self and tried to walk through everything that Burns thrown at him which unfortunately doesn't work for Gomez anymore. Burns looked good but don't think he is ready to challenge for a world title yet as he said he wanted to after the fight. I think that will be the last time we see Gomez in the ring, "unless he can get a couple of easy 4/6 rounders to take him to 50 fights with a couple of easy wins" in his words. He has been a good fighter over the years but has lived on the back of the Alex Arthur win for the last few years when he isn't the same boxer anymore, although sometimes the build up to his fights was actually better than the fight itself

Will be hoping for a Gary Davies win next week on friday fight night as he is a friend of mine.

Any news on whom's showin the Froch Taylor fight?

No. Showtime are producing the coverage in the US. ITV have shown an interest but I’d be surprised if they do the deal. Setanta seem to reigning in their big fight spend despite being the self-proclaimed ‘home of boxing’. Sky Box Office may have been interested as a bolt on to a Khan fight.

a stone in 6 weeks......(140lbs is his fighting weight)


i hope he's timed it rightcos if he comes in drained like ODLH did against pacman them he'll get destroyed

£140 is the weight limit, but he will probably enter the ring at 154ish.

I've read that Setanta are the favourites to secure the fight. I suppose we'll have to wait and see.



Beat me to it. Hatton will be down to 140lbs for the weigh in, but he's always around a stone heavier on fight night.

Matt Hatton fighting Ted Bami now available to watch on Hatton Boxing TV for anyone who maybe bored. Matt started well and possibly on top after the first 3 rounds.

Quigley is doing a real job on Tony Dodson at this point

Good win for Matt finishing it with a body shot. Didn't look to be the most powerful of shots but clearly troubled Bami enough for the ref to call a halt to it. Another credible name on Matt's record as he gets better and better.
