The reason is that Cotto is struggling to make weight at 140 and is moving up to 147. Hatton struggled against Collazo at 147 so Hatton is moving back down to 140.
Now the only way this fight would happen is:
1.- A catch weight.
2.- If Cotto struggles at 147 might just drop back down to 140.
I doubt both of these scenarios.

Mate you ever heard the quote " Styles make fights"

Firstly he had 6.5 weeks to prepare for his first ever fight at 147, secondly he was fighting a tall rangy slick southpaw boxer, Hatton can fight at 147 and will prove it in time if need be but at this time there is ot a meaningful fight available so hes going down to his natural 140, if the money was right there is no chance this fight wouldnt happen at 147, Billy Graham says he would probably prefer it 140 but i think 147 is still a class fight, Cotto's style is the sort of style Ricky loves, ala Micheal Stewert Vince Phillips ( obviously were not the level that Cotto is at) but still that style is much better for Ricky than a Collazo or a Mayweather.
