Of course as fight fans we'd all prefer Hatton to meet Castillo than either N'Dou or Rabah but props to the IBF, they look set to enforce the right of the winner of these two fighters to get their mandatory shot.

Maybe the WBC could learn from them...................
Good Point, just a shame that "mandatory's" are riddiculous.

On another note... IBF sure do give a lot of love to the aussies (Peden, Mundine, Those two Rabba n shabba...)
