You just cant get away from this fight anywhere, making back and front pages everywhere, making top news stories on news channels, if no one knew who Ricky Hatton is they do now. You don't hear about the Khan fight. I forgot Khan was fighting until i saw the weigh in photos. I hope Hattons wins. 20 million pounds in bets on this fight in this country alone.

Yes Amir has been pushed to the back of the queue in the press and rightly so, Hatton is the big story this weekend. I remember the 12 year old looking, ruthless body puncher dispatching Brian Coleman in his early career and Ian Darke saying "He might become a bit special this kid". He has done and may get a whole lot more if he wins tonight.
