First

Hatton Vs Castillo - I reckon Hatton is no way near as good as Castillo. Castillo punches harder, and is the better boxer, faster, technically better, better defence and fights better in the big fights. Hatton won't get away with the hit and hold tactics that his scraped his way through with in his last few fights. Castillo will probably have more fans in Vegas, so no help there.

Don't get me wrong I am not a Hatton hater, far from it but fact is he overatted. Castillo if age / wear and tear and weight dosn't effect him I see Hatton being stopped after 4-5 rounds of complete mayhem.

? Is Setanta the only ones showing it or can we buy it on sky box office as a PPV
? Are BBC showing it a week later

Maccarinelli Vs Braithwaite

Old school fight on ITV, reminds me when Benn fought G-man. Anything could happen, if Braithwaite gets going it could be all over early, as Macca who is also dangerous early might get caught cold before the fight starts - other than that its an all old school 50/50 pickem between two outright bangers - I'm going for Macca 4-5th round KO

?Are ITV finished with Warren, if they are who's showing it

Witter Vs Harris

Good fight - I can Witter being too clever and tricking his way to victory. If a fight breaks out ! then anything could happen, both have KO power in both hands - I say Witter - KO / TKO 10

? Whats happening with this ? does anyone know anything

Hatton-Castillo - Hatton all the way, Hatton has the momentum, natural at 140, has better speed, workrate, better footwork, and is stronger. Castillo is the harder hitter and more compact puncher, whcih will keep it sort of close. Hatton wins a widdish UD or late round TKO. Castillos been too inactive, looked poor last time and is old. A bad recipe against a pressure fighter

Witter-Harris - all is quite on the western front. Something tells me Harris has seen the money on offer and has bailed out, Witters career is going downhill because of this. Sad would have been a great fight

Mac-Braithwaite - Mac KO and early. Braithwaite looks past it and was stopped by a weak puncher. I dont know that much about Braithwaite though

Castillo to get a close but deserved decision which will appear controversial because of thousands of booing Brits.

Enzo by early KO.

Witter makes a statement by standing Harris on his head and then knocking him out.

Hatton batters Castillo after some problems early on, a winded and worn Castillo goes down and is stopped in the last couple.

Witter v Harris never happens.

Enzo wins a see-saw one with Braithwaite.

Hatton late stoppage or close points

agreed

Hatton will beat Castillo on points. Even if he goes tired again he can always rely on the old punch and grab technique that has served him well in the past. Ricky needs to be honest with himself though about what kind of spectacle that is. I don't really get why people think Hatton can stop Castillo.

I have no doubt that Witter would clearly outbox Harris.

Enzo UD over Braithwaite in a solid fight.

Hatton in a very close hard fight which I think he will have to get off the canvas to win.

Witter in a very predictable cautious win.

Braithwaite, unless Maccarinelli can get to him early.

Witter by KO in the mid to late rounds in a dull contest where he might be slightly down on the cards.

Tough calls on the other two.

Just giving the edge to Castillo at the mo, but very much on the fence on Mac vs Braithwaite.

If Hatton doesn't shape up and get serious, I can see him winning in the same way he did against in his last fight...a very disappointing decision. But if Hatton gets serious...no question in my mind, not only does Hatton win, he wins by UD decision if not a late KO.

I think Castillo might be near enough shot: a long hard career behind him and millions in the bank, he's gonna find it hard. But as he's a proud Mexican you have to give him the benefit of the doubt, even on his last legs. Still, Hatton will win, unless he's cut badly that is...

Enzo keeps his chin clear and blasts out big truck in 2 rounds.

Witter on points.

Hatton will be victorious with even more questions being asked after the fight.

Enzo to stop Braithwaite at some point in the fight of which he'll be leading on the cards.

Witter to eek out a points win after feeling some power shots from Harris.

Castillo should have one big performance left in him for light welterweight.

Hatton vs. Castillo will be an SD one way or the other, I reckon. It's pretty much a 50-50 fight on paper.

I like Witter to beat Harris, but it depends what Harris shows up. If it's the one who stopped Urkal then he has a shot, but if it's the one who was bamboozled and gassed against Maussa, then Witter will probably stop him.

Hatton v Castillo

Think this will be closer than a lot of people think, I've go a hunch that Castillo has one more great performance in him. Points decision either way, I'm sticking my neck out and say Castillo by three rounds.

Enzo v Braithwaite

Enzo catches Braithwaite at the right time. He'll be hit and shaken, how will his chin stand up? Enzo by stoppage, fifth round.

Witter v Harris

I rate Witter, think he'll win this on points.

Hatton TKO 10
Macca TKO 3
Witter Pts

Hatton in a close, gruelling points win
Witter befuddles Harris to win in 10 or 11
Mac wins against a past it braithwaite. I still don't rate him though
