Silly points again,Margarito doesn't struggle to make 147 at all,therefore there is no squeeze. He bulks up to fight@154,that's why he is uncomfortable fighting there.147 is his natural weight.

Floyd Hatton could still happen but personally I don't give Ricky a chance.... Don't give him a chance against Margarito either, and if anyone thinks he will take that fight your kidding yourself.. Ive seen Hatton respond to a question about Tony and you coould totally tell he didn't even want to talk about the possibility of the fight, at least that's what I thought.. It was on FNF a couple months back. The Collazo rematch is the only one that would make sense but I think Hatton know's he would stand little chance at winning that fight either.. I don't think Collazo is a stylistic nightmare or anything like that, he's just bigger than Hatton and strong enough to take anything he can dish out easily, plus to be honest I think Hatton is much less dangerous fighting in the states where he can't just maul his opponent. I think Hatton vs Margarito would be the most one sided beatdown, Tony is a HUGE welterweight, Hatton was at times hopeless against an average natural welter who isn't as good as Margarito at all, Tony would drop some bombs on him and it would get ugly fast.. This isn't to say I wouldn't love to see any one of these fights get made, I just don't realistically think Hatton would win them and I don't even put him in the top 5 at welter.
I'd love to see Tony-Hatton but like I said before the Collazo fight,Tony would heat him alive and I stick by that. Too big,too strong and powerful.Cool Click but the only thing I disagree with is Hatton having no fights. If you can't get the bigger names,there are always dangerous opponents like Clottey,Cintron,Williams,Quintana etc etc. All are far far more respectable than an ageing Urkal.One thing P4PK,what do you mean Hattoncan't maul his opponents stateside? As in he's not allowed to get away with the rough house stuff like IN Manchester?
