Katsidis isn't fighting a much bigger man here. It seems to me that this is a great matchup when you consider all the circumstances. I'd say this is probably the best fight that could be made for all parties. I'm hoping to see this one.

I like to discuss matters with people when there isn't any fanboy-ism involved... and the last couple of posts (yours and Master's) fit that description. Good point. You're right... Hatton's best weight was always 140. But this was during his peak years. You know his problems with weight. To me, Hatton can carry 147 a lot better than Katsidis can. I'm not claiming it won't be a good fight. I'm saying it's not the yardstick that Hatton needs to make sure he's "back". But pleasure discussing this with rational people for a change.
