This post is interesting. It's almost as if you have been living in a cave for 18 months it's so outdated.

Since his impressive win over Tszyu Hatton has looked anything but. He got careless against Maussa early on and ended up badly bloodied. His move up to 147 was not quite an absolute disaster but it was certainly about as phyric a victory as you could get. After relinquished his welterweight belt and scuttling back down to the juniors he then put in a lethargic lacklustre display against a D list fighter. His stamina certainly wouldn't have given Floyd a run for his money on that night.

I have no doubt he will beat Castillo as Castillo happens to be not only as overatted as Hatton but also even more faded and past it.

This fight has very limited appeal to me. Cotto was the number 1 140 lb until he moved, and Floyd was number 1 before him.

If Hatton is indeed the best at 140 lbs now it is only because the real talents graduated from junior high and went onto pursue their masters at 147 lbs. Hatton basically failed his exams and his doing retakes.
