Very interesting way of looking at it,Cc.Nice! Hmmm,very true,Hatton should have stayed at 147,I mean the excuse used is that he only had 7 weeks to train,why not train longer and prove he can beat Collazo more covincingly? I hope Cotto never comes back to 147,he was hurting himself and Floyd coming back to 140 is probably highly unlikely too!
The thing hatton has now is that if he goes to light welter which is......he is going to be the favourite to rule the devison when you look at is this way

WBC-Junior Witter..............i do think this will be a good BRITISH fight.....but it wont do much for hatton on the world title front. people will look at hatton is weaker if anything.

WBA- Souleymane M'baye..................wont do anyting but just put another W on hattons record.....we know hatton will win and what does he prove with this fight? another world title....


IBF-Juan Urango- same goes for this guy!

WBO- If cotto is fighting for the WBA belt he will vacate this one so it will proably be sum bum who will pick it up..........hatton if all goes to he lightwelter plan will bag this one.



so i really do think going to light welter will do noat for hatton. look at the welter champs......MUCH BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!! he needs to get a fight against somebody like luiz beat him easily and move on to a bigger name like Paul williams an undeafted prospect...hatton must think to himself this is the right track he should go down it and be a real man
