Hatton v Marquez 'agreed in principle'

Golden Boy Promotions are claiming that Ricky Hatton v Juan Manuel Marquez is all set for 2010.

The website of Ring magazine - which is owned by Golden Boy Promotions one should not forget - is the source.

In a report on Paulie Malignaggi's victorious comeback against Juan Diaz (all three judges scoring it 116-111 for the flamboyant light-welter), the victor said he would really like a rematch against Hatton.

"However, Golden Boy Promotions matchmaker Eric Gomez said Hatton and Juan Manuel Marquez have agreed in principal to fight next year."
