If Hatton didn't fight Floyd...

[Dizaster]

In another thread I was talking about Hatton's run towards the number one P4P when he finished off 140 and moved up to 147, fighting some relatively good fighters and keeping his big zero..

If he hadn't of fought Floyd.. If Floyd say, went up to 154 and wouldn't come down, or some other reason like injury etc.

Would Hatton of possibly made it to P4P #1 upon Floyd's retirement?

Would he have probably stayed at 147 and maybe gotten stronger there with each fight? Or do you really believe that he's a 140 pound fighter, would never have really adapted to the big guys at 147, and would have gotten his beating eventually from a Margarito or a strong 147 Cotto?

The Floyd fight really did cut short his shooting for the moon... I think he would have just been a little to small at 147 and with that, just would have fell a tiny bit short of the bigger guys there and doesn't quite have the skill to make up for it... So would eventually be against a too tougher opponent and get dominated eventually over the 12 rounds..
