Just looking at the rankings and it seems Ricky and Nate Campbell are ranked very high with the IBF, although Randal Bailey is also very high. Juan Urango is facing Berto so could be likely to vacate.
I think this could be a good fight for both parties.... Campbell seems to be struggling for fights, and Ricky could show us while the P4P #1 position will always elude him people hovering around the P4P top ten have been no bother in the past.
I think its a tasty fight.
Hatton vs Campbell.

Re: Hatton vs Campbell.
Hatton isn't fighting hard fights that aren't huge money spinners or perhaps for a last title. Campbell brings neither, won't happen. Hatton doesn't need to work his way back up the ladder like other fighters. Campbell is a puzzler, he got beat twice by Peden who a past it Barrera schooled but beat up Juan Diaz. A Guzman fight may have told us allot as would the Bradley and Judah fights he turned down.
Hatton will have a tune up and then face the Khan-Kotelnik winner at Manchester City and retire

Re: Hatton vs Campbell.
It might happen for the IBF title though. I'm sure Randall Bailey would side step. Why I thought it might be possible is, Campbell is not a puncher who has a good reputation. He probably offers the 4/5th biggest pay cheque for Hatton at the weight... Two of them are not viable (Pacquiao and Mayweather) Marquez is not available, Khan could slip up... so only really leaves Judah.Phenomenal-Nutrition wrote:Hatton isn't fighting hard fights that aren't huge money spinners or perhaps for a last title.

Re: Hatton vs Campbell.
Yeah, that's the point. If he's going to fight again, it'll be a farewell match, and it'll be a big enough thing that he could fill out a stadium.Phenomenal-Nutrition wrote:Hatton isn't fighting hard fights that aren't huge money spinners or perhaps for a last title.

Re: Hatton vs Campbell.
Come on, he could fight Chris Evans or Jarvis Cocker for a farewell fight and fill out Man City.
Doesn't have to be a motivating fight. Because beyond Witter, who else could get his blood up now?
