Maybe one more fight with a 147 bloke..should be collazo again and see how he goes this time.
Not the same scenario first Hatton is much bigger naturally in comparison to 147 than Oscar is naturally in comparison to 160. Second Hatton style relies more on his size and strong than does Oscar's. My third and final point is Oscar had more skill and could get away with moving up wieghts easier... that is why Mayweather at 147 is still doing good because talent transcends weight levels more than anyhting else.
