To be fair it was four years previous that Calzaghe hammered him and he did work his way back up so it wasnt a 'rematch' in the truest sense.

Calzaghe got his biggest ever payday at the time for the Veit rematch
Only a fucking moron would say no to a career high payday against someone they caned in 1 round previous.
Ok how about Robinson vs Carl *Bobo* Olson, Robinson KO him in 2, then rematched him straight away then KO him in 4.Quote:

If Hatton wants to win, he'll move back to 140 immediately. If he wants to get KO'd again, he'll stay at 147.
To be fair to Veit he comeback well, he went on 15 winning steak and beat Salem, Brewer, not too shabby.Quote:

Just read on telextext that Ricky Hatton is targeting a rematch with Mayweather but has also stated that he has options at 140.
I stated in a thread the other day that i knew Ricky wouldnt be able to let this lie with mayweather...
If a fight with PBF could be made at 140, i'd say go for it. Make it his final fight win or lose and he gets a big payday with a remote chance of avenging that defeat. 150lb against Oscar would be suicide.
No thanks ricky great fight and effort but, i wouldn't want to see him or oscar fight him again. There are other fights out there for all three of these guys.
Bad idea. Bad, bad idea.
there's still something bugging me about the fight i just dont think ricky did the job he could of..
not taking anything away from him but i think he feels himself that he could of fought better, it would have to be his perfect fight to beat Mayweather though
Mayweather would beat Hatton more handily in a rematch. Mayweather has shown a greater ability to adjust than Hatton. The reason for Hatton's success is because he's really good at one gear and most opponents haven't been able to deal with that kind of pressure. In a sequel Mayweather would see everything coming a mile away and he and the turnbuckle would play patty-cake with his head.
