I'm scratching my head a little as to what he's done to earn it?

kindof like that Mrs Merton question on why the lovely Debbie McGee married Millionaire Paul Daniels....

I'd give Hatton a good shot of winning a fight with M'baye.

sure, but if he wins....so what, there's at least two other WBA belt holders at the same weight.

I suppose he could at least be marketed as a "world champion", which is an appellation the average person probably won't question, no matter how appropriate it really is.

Three-time world title challenger!

He's pulled another one out of his hat? Winnable for the Magic Man

Who else would have been given an opportunity like this at his level? Lets get it right, Matthew has only got where he has because of who his brother is.......

All true, but I think Mbaye has also been very lucky in his career. Not sure how he earned a WBA interim title shot at Welter after losing a few times in succession at world level at Light welter.

I think stylewise its ideal for Hatton, you don't need power - just workrate. Get him over here, he doesn't like the UK generally

It's not who you know, it's who you blow
