Someone please explain why Hatton left 147 and went down in weight?

**me2007** · 06-04-2007, 09:08 AM

Because he got outboxed and hurt by feather fisted Collazo,before the fight he was saying he feels stronger and faster at his new weight,after the fight he said he didnt want to move up in the first place,its amazing how a guy like Floyd can move up from featherweight to light middleweight,still stay undefeated,beat the top guys and gets pure hate,but Hatton cant even move up 1 weight against not even a top p4p opponent then move back down and struggle against other average opposition

why ask a question when you already know the answer

He never really intended to go up. He was scheduled to fight Lazcano at 140. When that fell through 2 months before the fight he took the chance to move up and fight Collazo.

Hatton will beat Castillo and he'll still get unfairly rubbished by people who have never boxed a round in their life.

A master boxer like Mayweather is obviously gonna have an easier time moving up in weight, because he has the skills to outbox his opponent and not take their big shots (i.e DLH fight), whereas Hatton isn't that type of fighter and he is a comeforward type fighter who is obviously gonna take his fair share of shots in a fight
