22 November in Vegas.

No Graham in Hatton's corner.  That will be strange.

No idea.  It was meant to be a big Madison Square Garden gig.

wasn't it Hatton who looked into how much a NY fight package would cost fans, found it was way more than going to Vegas so insisted on the move to LV?

Allegedly- i'm a bit cynical about some of these things- think Hattons a great guy and all but sometimes wonder if some of the things that are said are part of the big publicity machine behind Hatton.

A different point, read Rickys book- a bit boring for my liking(I like reading a bit more car crash material about fvcked up people like besty, gazza ungar etc) but still readable- he says in it he will never get rid of Graham.

Graham has done him a favour jacking it in. two or three fights too late for me.

Graham quit the game because of ill health, nothing to do with Hatton dropping him. I think Hatton is the real deal regarding his committment to his fans, it gets a bit boring at times though.

Mark my words.....this fight will be SHITE! Hatton wins on points by workrate and being the aggressor,an easy but dull nights work for Ricky.

I agree I think the fight will be shite- seen Malignaggi in his last fight when he had a head like a pineapple and he didnt impress- guy in my work seems to think he'll give Hatton a good fight!

As for Graham- I'm only going with what I read on skysports - http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12183_3885935,00.html

I also read though this morning from Graham- Its a great time I've had with ricky and its a fantastic story, i'm not going to ruin it by going and bad mouthing him- which I thought was top class of the guy
