Haha! Great comparison between Degale and Harrison, actually made me lol, can’t agree more!

And as for Hatton? Well, if he carries on drinking the way he was, then he definatly should retire, because he’ll continue to loose to worse and worse opposition.

Just follow the advice of the old guy its for Hatton’s safety and for the safety of his legacy to be remembered as one of the best light welter in the history of the sport.

If Degale fights the same way this time. Then he is going to be another Audley!

I agree with you Andy C ^. Hatton has just been facing sublime opponents. It’s not that he’s a bad fighter, or that his chin has finally given way. It’s just that you can’t compare a good fighter like hatton to absolutly superb opponents like Pac man and Mayweather.

Wow Henry Cooper doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Hatton’s chin is the same as it always was. He’s just facing MUCH better opponents now.

He was knocked out in the 10th round by Mayweather after absorbing lots of punishment. And Manny Pac destroyed him with huge shots.

If Hatton stepped back down a class you would see he has still got it. Just not at the highest level.
