Hatton-Harris

[Tam Seddon]

tam, hatton never had any intension of fighting his carrer out at 147, he wanted to be a 2 weight world champion which he acheived and then was being forced to fight oktay urkal who was his mando and a fight nobody would have paid to see, the 147 division now aint near as good as 140, pbf has moved up gatti has retired, judah looks finnished and soon the best 2 fighters in it will be facing ( margarito v cotto) this leveas the 6,1 paul williams to fight prob for a world belt up at 154 now against stinx. now at 140 we have hatton, castillo, corrales, witter, harris and the returning kostya tszyu this to me seems a better division at the momment the 147.

But if the fight was a major success do you really think Hatton would have gone to 140 seriously? I feel the 147 has more exciment than the 140 devison a mega fight with Mayweather would be more attractive than a fight with Witter am i wrong ? I feel Hatton may not want to go back to 147 but he is sure doing the wrong thing staying at 140

the fight was a succses he beat a very good fighter in his first fight for a major title at a new weight, he moved back down because his style wouldn't suit fighting margarito, williams or any the other big 147 guy's and inevitibly thats what would have happened if he stayed there. why would a fighter fight at the weight above his natural it doesn't make sense, the only way he would go back up would be for a fight with cotto or gayweather who i think will both lose there big fights comming up against oscar and margarito respectivly.

[Hughesd]

Is it confirmed that Tysu (spelling) is coming back ?

[tommygunn]

yeah but not at 147 like he planned before his injury it will be back at 140, no opponent has been named and i cant find nothing on the net but he was interviewed about a month ago on kotv and confirmed this.

[killersheep]

Is it confirmed that Tysu (spelling) is coming back ?

NO it is not confirmed

[tommygunn]

it is according to kostya, maybe you know better than he does.

Bro when that much money is on the line do you think somebody will care about how different the stlye is? I think that a fight with a big 147 will bring so much exciment etc. Compared with a crummy fight at 140, which in the long run doesnt do Hattons unbeaten record justice. I say this time and time again i would prefer to see Hatton fight a big name and take a risk at 147, then to see him fight at 140 were the risks arent as big and the names dont look too good on his record.

so castillo and corrales arent good names to have, he prob will fight at 147 again just not against 1 of the big brawlers, it will be cotto or gayweather 2 guy's whom i think he can beat, hatton prob only has 4 fights left in him with the amount of weight he gains between fights and theres always the massive fight with amir khan to be made if both can keep winning.

Fair play castillo and corraless are big names! but thats 2 big names compared with about 5-6 big names at 147. AMIR KHAN!!!!!!!! you being serious? how is he a big name? he aint done shit and he never wont for a very long time. Not in 3 years time to justify him having a fight with Hatton who would want to be rememberd as a legend. Amir Khan would not help him there mate. A fight with Floyd would help him a lot more!

[tommygunn]

khans next fight will prob be against thaxton for the british lightweight title, amir has said he wants a world belt by the end of 07 and if he succeds he will be ready for a hatton fight. by the way both these guy's are freinds and have said they'd like to fight each other.

I wouldnt be surpised if Thaxton beats him. Hattons record would not be any different if he beat Khan you must see that. Any top 140'a would kick Amir's ass in 2007 and he wouldnt stand a chance with Hatton!

Hatton was never meant to be a 147 fighter.

He was due to fight Lazcano at 140 who broke his finger

HBO offered the Collazo fight

Chance to be a two weight World Champion

7 weeks prep to move upto 147 and fight a very under-rated Southpaw in Collazo

Still won a UD, not even a controversial fight if Collazo didn't have that 12th round

Graham is on record saying 140 is Hattons optimum weight and he gives an advantage away @ 147

Hatton may have stayed and took Urkal as a mandatory and grown into the weight but Arum offered them Castillo. This was straight after the Collazo fight whilst they were still in the US!!

Hatton will move to 147 to fight Cotto or Mayweather (Marquee names)

Simple really

[killersheep]

Where is your source?

Well i feel Hatton could have had bigger names at 147, dont get me wrong i aint complaing with a castillo fight but that just makes me think why did he even bother going to 147 in the first place? i know someone will reply HBO would only offer than Luiz fight but at the end of the day if he wasnt ready why did he bother. I would have prefered him to stay at 140 and then have a full prep at 147 and we can see Hatton at his best. In the long run Hatton needs to fully prep at 147 get a good build up name and get his ass at 147.
