But if the fight was a major success do you really think Hatton would have gone to 140 seriously? I feel the 147 has more exciment than the 140 devison a mega fight with Mayweather would be more attractive than a fight with Witter am i wrong ? I feel Hatton may not want to go back to 147 but he is sure doing the wrong thing staying at 140
