Hatton targets Castillo v Corrales winner

http://www.secondsout.com/USA/news.cfm?ccs=229&cs=19442

Newly crowned WBA welterweight champion Ricky Hatton has said his top choice for his next opponent is the winner of next month's rubber match between Diego Corrales and Jose Luis Castillo.

Coming off a viciously hard fought win over Luis Collazo in Boston, the Hitman said he is ready for a new challenge and believes a brawl with the winner of the upcoming rubber match would be exactly the sort of fight he needs to enhance his reputation.

"If I had my choice I would fight the winner of the Castillo-Corrales fight, but it's up to my team," said Hatton.

Although both men struggle to make the weight, Castillo and Corrales are fighting for the WBC lightweight title in Las Vegas in June and it is possible Hatton could meet the winner at a catch weight.

Leading boxing ranking website BoxRec actually lists Castillo as the number one fighter at junior welter, ahead of consensus champion Hatton.

If Hatton can beat either one of those two, I will give him some serious props. I personally don't think he could/will beat either one of them.

Not a good choice for Hatton to goup against any of these two fighters they can both brawl and fight

These guys are fighting 12 Lbs lighter then he is at right now. Why does he wish to challenge the little guys? why not Margarito or some one bigger or as big as he is since he is invinsible to so many. I do like him but why challenge either of those two fighters who have always fougth at a lighter weight class then he has always been.

I don't see any problem with him fighting Castillo. Castillo's a huge lightweight, he can't even really make it anymore and he'd be a solid jr. welter, which is where Hatton should be anyway. Hatton-Castillo at 140 would be a great fight IMO, I'd love to see that. If you put Hatton and Castillo in the same ring at 140 there wouldn't be much of a size difference, Castillo kills himself to make 135. Margarito-Hatton at 147 would be fine too, but if I were Hatton I would think about going back down to 140, and a Castillo fight would be something to look forward too.

Corrales is IMO looking a little weathered but maybe he'll show something in the third fight.

That is a very wise decision for Hatton; proper weight for him and giant crowd pleaser.

Its a shame for Hatton that Castillo is to fight Cotto next.

I think it is a good time for either Cotto or Hatton to fight Castillo because personally I think he has reached the end of his career. I hate to be a pessimist but I'm 100% certain Hatton, Castillo and Floyd all lose 1 of their next 3 fights. I would say of the next 2 but have a feeling Ricky may get spoon fed his next 2.

Well, well, well, what do we have here!!!! What happened everybody, I thought Ricky was gonna give Collazo that rematch Mayweather is given the fight of his life when jumping to a new division and what does he say to Castillo, "Let's do it again because I'm a real champ." Hatton is given the fight of his life when jumping to a new division and what does he say to Collazo, "Ah, I think I'll go fight someone 2 divisions smaller than me." Like I said before, talk is cheap.

I give Hatton all the props in the world for challenging either one of these guys. That being said, I think he'll his ass handed to him.

First of all Mayweather was soundly beaten by Castillo, I think I gave Mayweather like 4rds outta 12, so there is a huge difference, Hatton won a close fight, but he WON!!!

nope, Mayweather won the first fight and crushed Castillo in the second. Hatton was given a gift and battered by a guy with no power, that's the difference.

I imagine this means that The Hitman's given up on a Floyd match at 147 too, given that he said himself he'd have to "grow into the weight" in order to be competitive, which he obviously can't do if he's racing back down to the lower weight classes.

Actually even people who said they though Castillo won said it was close, so you're the only blind person here if you think anyone CLEARLY won. Floyd is the best, deal with your denial.

Well let Floyd fight Collazo and let see what happens, Floyd might even lose. Collazo would give . any welterweight trouble.
