It appears that a rematch with Luis Collazo is not in the cards for undefeated WBA welterweight champion Ricky Hatton. The Manchester Evening News reports that Hatton is moving back down to 140 pounds, unless a bout with Floyd Mayweather, Jr. can be made.
Hatton said that his bout with Collazo made him realize that the junior welterweight division is his natural weight. Hatton is looking to meet the winner of the very anticipated bout between Jose Luis Castillo and Diego Corrales, which takes place on June 3 in Las Vegas. The bout would take place in the United States, likely as a pay-per-view attraction. There would be a problem with making the bout if Castillo wins, as the Mexican brawler is already penciled in to meet Miguel Cotto in November.
"I would like to fight the winner of Corrales-Castillo. Unless it is worth my while, I would like to campaign at light-welterweight now. I felt stronger at welter, but because I am a natural light-welter I am giving the opponent a head-start," Hatton told M.E.N. Sport.
