Who has more claim over the pac - hatton winner?

[DatsiK]

So it seems like both Cotto and Mosely now want to fight the winner of this fight, among a few others.. but i'll focus on these two for this post. Who should be given the first chance to fight the winner?

I think it's a tough call, Cotto has the win over Mosely but Mosely has the win over the only man to beat him (however controversial it was).

Thoughts?

I suppose they could always fight again to determine who will fight the Hatton-Pac winner. But I'm guessing they'd want to get it signed for the next fight on their schedule so who knows.

I think those guys need to fight to determine who gets the winner. They would also have to accept that the fight would probably be at a catchweight of about 143-145 at least

Wlad Klitschko.

Cotto couldn't get down to 140, I don't think Hatton or PAC would be powerful enough to keep Cotto honest at 147. I don't know if Mosley could get down to 140 anymore either. I think the winner of Hatton/PAC will have earned a lesser fight maybe Bradley or Judah.

I think that would be the logical choice but Mosely has made it clear he wants to fight the Hatton-Pac winner before he fights Cotto again. I think either one of them would have problems with moving down to 140, should Hatton win (as he most likely wouldn't want to fight there). If Pac wins I guess it will be a little more simple since as far as I can tell Pac made the weight with relitive perfection.

mosley wants to fight the winner of pac hatton before he fights cotto again coz he nos hell lose to cotto again.

All depends on the winner i think Pac/cotto if Pac wins will be in the near future if Hatton wins i see him fighting arquez if he beats Diaz.

As bad it sounds, the simple fact is that the Pacquiao/Hatton winner is the one holding all the cards. He will be able to say to Cotto/Mosley/Marquez/Diaz that if they want to fight then they're going to have to come down to whatever weight that they're going to set & they will be in the driving seat in terms of finances. The reason Mosley wants this fight first is because he knows which one is worth more money to him, & the way Jin Mosley is going on, he may need it

Cotto probably has to fight in June most likely against Clottey or another tune-up... Mosley is silent so far and he's just waiting for the winner of PAC-Hatton...

Cotto already mentioned PAC's name and Team PAC also mentioned Cotto so I think there's no problem with a future PAC-Cotto fight...

Hatton and Pac would be crazy taking on Cotto or Moseley at Welter they would get beat. Better to stay at 140lb and take on Marquez and others.
