If anyone wants to watch the fight you can get it on setanta sports 1, as opposed to PPV - I am not a subscriber to the setanta package i hear you say, don't worry - setanta sports 1 is free (for a short period i think), no sign up etc... needed.

however you can't get it on sky - only on a freeview box.

anyone watching this? it appears to be working :) - sky scrambled it @ 12 - but still working on freview. it just seems so stupid to put it on a PPV when it's free :doh - unless they scramble it as soon as i open another bottle of plonk :splapme

Not seen it either but from the reports I have read Hatton was brutal. A body shot took Castillo out and he admitted that it was a great punch that stopped him breathing which is why he couldn't get up again from it.

Hatton v Mayweather now?

would love to see hatton vs mayweather next, - i reckon hatton would beat him. theres plenty of big fights out there for him now - i think he will have to move up to welterweight though where mosley, cotto, magarito, mayweather possibly de la hoya or gatti, are all superfights for him. Nothing left at light welterweight for him, Malignaggi for the IBF could be an option at light welterweight, but a move up would be the thing to do.

Hatton looked in some shape. Would you believe the missus stayed up to watch it with me. (I came in from work at 2 with a bag of ice! :D)

A short but enjoyable fight.
