Yeah, it is a problem for Hatton. A lot of people (including MacGuigan) seemed to think that Cotto is the fight next for him as Cotto is a LW who has gone up to WW, but I think Cotto looks far more comfortable at WW than he ever did at LW. And Hatton is too short to go jumping too many weights, he loses his main asset the minute he goes up a division, his ability to bully people in the ring. I actually think the best fight for Hatton at that weight is Mayweather, as Mayweather doesn't have the power to hurt Hatton, and it would really be down to the question of whether Hatton can cut off the ring and impose his style on Mayweather. If, and it's a big if, he can he wins the fight, otherwise he loses and probably quite badly. Against any of the other big names at WW I think his roughhouse tactics will cause him all sorts of problems. Although maybe a tune-up fight with Zab Judah could be achievable...
