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

[Brother Blues]

Basically, hattons enjoyable to watch and floyds not

Now that is a true statement...which I can agree with.
Even tho PBF would hit Hatton so hard and often the Queen would feel it.

A Hatton fight is a much better fight than a Mayweather fight...simply because every fight I have seen of Hatton's he has been life and death with inferior,supposely...opponents.

Urango and Collazo were mediorce opponents who had Ricky huggin'...

Hatton gets by on heart,so he has my respect for becoming a champ with limited ability.And...he is fighting in the USA now,so more respect for that.

Given his style and lack of ability,he cannot be in a bad fight.

TS, you are brighter than that. Naseem hamed has no problem making 180 but that doesn't mean he should fight there. Boxers have always got down to the lowest weight they can....not sure what to add if this doesn't make sense....

for that.

Hatton has heart but the Urango fight was pretty bad, especially the last few rounds, no way was that fight better than mayweather-Baldomir.

[Dorian]

Because he sucks that's why.

he got his ass handed to him by Collazo....lol

A P4P level fighter should be able to move up one weight class and be able to hang with the best fighters in the division. Hatton could barely handle a fringe contender...

Naseem hamed stayed at the same weight his whole carrer if am not mistaken, he didnt jump up to 130, say i dont feel right at the weight and move back down.

Im not saying hatton should fight at 160 or summin, but he can clearly make 147 with ease if he weighs 168+ outside the ring, so what hatton says doesnt make sense.

Think about it, how can 7 pounds be the difference between hatton being a world class fighter or not, when other fighters have moved up 30-40 over the course of an entire carrer?

Do you really think he is that much better at 140 than 147,

Whats the difference between the hatton that fought urango and the hatton that fought collazo?

Can someone explain to me how Cotto moved up to welterweight and completely dominated a slick southpaw in his debut, while Hatton had so much trouble with a similar fighter with no power?

How does 7 pounds make no difference for Cotto (might have made him stronger, if anything) and make a world of difference to Hatton?

I was thinking exactly the same thing,

And cotto probably weighs less outside of ring then hatton, but was killing himself to make 140, couldnt do it anymore and had to move up,

yet hatton claims he feels better dropping from 168+ pounds to 140, rather than from 168+ pounds to 147,

Im not sure about that.

I agree, i think he felt the power at that weight and his heart wasnt in it!!! In other words he dropped his nuts!!! Zab or Cotto will kick his arse if he fights either one of them!!! So hattons dreaming if he thinks he can beat floyd!!! I know all the hatton nuthuggers wont be impressed but he dont impress me none!!!
