Hatton or his dad actually claim that they never said Floyd had to come to 140 for the fight. The story first emerged in the guardian but they were apparently misquoted. If you go onto the official ricky hatton website on their forum there is a topic somewhere about it. One of the forum members (I guess he is close to the Hatton camp unless he is talking rubbish) conducted a telephone interview with Ray Hatton regarding the matter and he claims all he said was that they would fight 'as though' they were training for a 140 bout to keep Hattons speed unlike last time where he reckons they bulked too much.

I don't like Ricky's chances against ODLH, it also makes a bout with Mayweather less interesting and meaningful if he loses to Oscar.
