Known has the Hammer, because of his exceptionally hard punch, the Commonwealth champion is being tipped as the new Ricky Hatton and is busy making a name for himself in the Welterweight division.

He comes into this bout of the back of a defeat to Daniele Petrucci for a European title but by his own admission he didn’t prepare properly for the fight after accepting it at short notice. www.william hill.co.uk Before that he took the Commonwealth title from the decent fighter Ali Nuumbembe stopping him within the distance and walking out of a very tough fight without a mark on him.

His power is fantastic just ask Amir Khan who he floored when still an amateur and Robert Lloyd Taylor who was knocked out by Watson after just 37 seconds of round one last year.

Matthew Hatton hasn’t really stepped up a notch after a promising start to his career. He often faces opponents with less than impressive records and has found too many of them heavy work. He has only lost three times, once by knock out, and is undefeated in his last five fights. No doubt he’ll have most of the crowd on his side but that is likely to spur Watson on who just looks the superior fighter.  www.williamhill.co.uk

Football - Leeds v Donnie

• May 8th, 2008

Leeds play Doncaster in the League One Playoff final at Wembley this Sunday looking to bounce back to the championship at the first time of asking.

For Football Betting at bet365.com CLICK HERE

Love them or hate them Leeds have had a phenomenal season reaching the playoffs despite having 15 points deducted at the start of the campaign for financial irregularities.

The Elland Road side know that bouncing straight back is an imperative. They’ve seen from the experiences of other big clubs such as Nottingham Forest that a failure to gain promotion sooner rather than later can lead to being bogged down in English footballs third tier.

While Leeds are fallen giants Doncaster is a club on the rise. They have gone from being minnows of League two to potentially just one division away from the Premiership. Under the guidance of owner John Ryan the club have built a new stadium and are financially secure.

The game itself is likely to be a tight affair after both games between the sides this season have ended one-nil to the away side. Doncaster will be keen to stop Niel Kilkenny taking hold of the game in Midfield and will have to shut down Leeds top-scorer Jermaine Beckford if they are to win this.

Doncaster had a steady campaign and swept into the final with a five-one win over Southend. The key men for them will be player of the year Richie Wellens and James Coppinger who scored a hat-trick in that semi-final win. If these two are allowed to express themselves Leeds could be in trouble.

Football - Rochdale v Stockport

• May 8th, 2008

Rochdale and Stockport County will meet in an all Greater Manchester League Two playoff final at Wembley this bank holiday Monday.

For Football Betting at bet365.com CLICK HERE

In recent years both sides have been more accustomed to relegation battles than promotion races but since the arrival of managers Keith Hill at Spotland and Jim Gannon at Edgeley Park both clubs have had a change in fortunes.

When Keith Hill took over Rochdale in January 2007 his first job was to rescue the club for yet another battle to stay in the league. He changed attitudes and the style of play and a fantastic run of results took ‘the Dale’ to the verge of the playoffs. This season they built on that run with limited resources and will be going to the home of English football for the first time in the clubs 100 year history.

It was a similar story at Stockport. Former county favourite Jim Gannon was installed in his post with one mission - to turn the club around. I think it’s fair to say he’s done exactly that and after two record breaking seasons and narrowly missing out on the playoffs last season they will have their chance at promotion.

Playoffs are more often than not a lottery and, as the old cliché goes, anything can happen in a final. That said Stockport will enter the game slight favourites after beating their local rivals twice this season the most recent a two nil victory in march.

Welsh Open Golf

• May 8th, 2008

This years Welsh open is poised to be one of the most competitive golf tournaments of the year.

For Football Betting at bet365.com CLICK HERE

Many of Europes top players and Ryder Cup hopefuls will descent on the Celtic Manor course perched high over Newport to get a taste of the 2010 Ryder Cup venue.

For the first time the tournament will be played on the new twenty ten course, which has been designed and built especially to host the Worlds most prestigious team golf event. The new course means picking the winner this year more difficult with it unclear how the course will play. One factor you can usually rely on is that Welshmen seem to go well in their home event. So dont be surprised to see the likes of Bradley Dredge too far away.

Oliver Wilson will be in with a shout too. He played some fantastic golf in the BMW PGA Championship last weekend and in the last two months has earned over £700000 which is a sign of a man in form

One who might surprise in Gary Orr. The Scott is beginning to play his best golf and has a good record in this event. Hes only missed one cut in eight starts this season and if he can put in a couple of good rounds he may be a contender.

Rochdale Football review

• May 8th, 2008

Rochdale will be able to celebrate a groundbreaking season despite losing in the league two playoff final to Stockport on Monday.

For Football Betting at bet365.com CLICK HERE

The club has been marooned in the bottom tier of English league football for 34 years and although they will spend another year facing the likes of Exeter and Aldershot they have made incredible progress.

Since his appointment in January 2007 manager Keith Hill and his assistant David Flitcroft have changed attitudes at Spotland from wanting just to stay in the league to one of wanting to achieve. In his first full season in charge former Blackburn player Hill has raised expectations at the club dubbed ‘the most unsuccessful in league football’ and by building a young hungry squad has laid the foundations for many more successful seasons.

This season has been unbelievable for ‘the Dale’ reaching Wembley for the first time and in their centenary year. They’ll hope to build on this next season and go one better.

This year it wasn’t to be and met in Stockport a better team, at least on the day. Like Rochdale the Hatters have had a change in fortune since the arrival of manager Jim Gannon in December 2005. Then they we languishing bottom of the league. Since then theyve had two record breaking seasons and on limited resources build a strong footballing side and in top-scorer Liam Dickinson and winger Tommy Rowe have too young prospects who can expect to play at a higher station than League One in the near future.

Boxing - Hatton review

• May 8th, 2008

By his own admission Ricky Hatton is entering the final chapter of his career and judging by his performance on Saturday night it could be the shortest.

For Football Betting at bet365.com CLICK HERE

 There are a few factors that could explain his lacklustre performance. The pressure of 58,000 fans shouting him on and his own eagerness to please them with a knockout blow would definitely explain his almost careless approach to the bout.

It was interesting to hear how the boxing media are beginning to turn on Hyde based boxer after the fight. Where before his style was described as ?brave and aggressive? phrases like ?reckless and one-dimensional? were being used to describe this performance and his previous fight against Floyd Mayweather.

It was hard to tell how good this performance was but we can use two reference points to see how much of an disapoint this was. Hatton, at the top of his powers, beat Kostya Tszyu three years ago but had the Hitman we saw on Saturday night stepped into the ring that night he would have taken a beating. Plus would this substandard fighter entered into the squared circle to face Floyd Mayweather again the American would be completely untroubled by him.

Hatton does still have one fight left in him and will face up against IBF champions Paulie Maliganggi in November. That fight could tell us all we need to know about his future.
