This thread is a little silly. Everyone knows that Hatton got Floyd's name out of his mouth even before he almost lost to Collazo. As Frozensolid said, the word before that fight from hatton's camp was that "hatton isn't ready for floyd yet," maybe in 3-4 fights. Then he almost lost to Collazo, said that 147 was definitely not his weight, started talking about moving down, refused the rematch he promised to Collazo, and used the excuse of "I have to fight mandatories (to keep this belt that no one cares about--right after giving up 3 belts in another division)" while lining up potential fights with no-name bums. And now we find out that Kostya's shoulder was seriously injured and required surgery when Hatton beat him. Personally, I don't have much interest in seeing this fight. Hatton is a B+ fighter at best, and this would not be a close fight.
