    I find this very very hard to believe because Hatton doesnt fight at 140lb's even when he is fighting at jrWW. Hatton weighs-in at 140lbs and then rehydrates and puts on 8-10 pounds.

    Almost all boxers put on this weight when they rehydrate. The only exception is for some fighters who are not natural for there weight and who dont have to dry out to make weight.

    i.e. PBF

    Hatton will be best served by training for this fight the same as a jrWW fight with the sole exception being that he wont have to dry out to make weight. He'll then come in at fight time around 148-152.

      The amount of KO's? Who has Hatton fought again that's notable enough to even matter? I think it's smart for Ricky to stay at a weight he is comfortable. I really don't think this will affect the outcome however, I am presume the security will cause him to do better. He walks around bigger than Floyd anyway.

        Look at the opponents they have faced before the knockout ratio

          Hatton is going to take an ugly beating.

            hatton is bluffing, he will weight around 150-152 after rehydration. tis is going to be a brutal beating delivered by the pretty boy so it doesn't matter how hatton prepares floyd is smarter, quicker, and stronger.

                    There is no such thing as "weigh-ing in at welt". It is ONLY a limit, not a minimum.

                    hatton can come in at 126 if he wanted to.

                      Ricky Hatton is a ****in' Looney Toon...he alwayz got some ridiculous BS comin' out of his came. And for those who say floyd don't hit hard are terribly mistaken (ie Gatti) Alot of people are judging floyd's power on his last two fights. Baldomir AKA Human Concrete is a freak of nature...u can hit him with everything and he'll still take the punch...and we all know oscar could take a mean punch too....Floyd Mayweather is absolutely stronger then Ricky and it will show Dec. 8. Floyd trains all year round unlike alot of these boxers who sit on there ass and put on 20 lbs....i bet floyd weight about 154 rite now
