Newly crowned WBA welterweight champion Ricky Hatton has said his top choice for his next opponent is the winner of next month's rubber match between Diego Corrales and Jose Luis Castillo.
Coming off a viciously hard fought win over Luis Collazo in Boston, the Hitman said he is ready for a new challenge and believes a brawl with the winner of the upcoming rubber match would be exactly the sort of fight he needs to enhance his reputation.
"If I had my choice I would fight the winner of the Castillo-Corrales fight, but it's up to my team," said Hatton.
Although both men struggle to make the weight, Castillo and Corrales are fighting for the WBC lightweight title in Las Vegas in June and it is possible Hatton could meet the winner at a catch weight.
Leading boxing ranking website BoxRec actually lists Castillo as the number one fighter at junior welter, ahead of consensus champion Hatton.
Not a good choice for Hatton to goup against any of these two fighters they can both brawl and fight
