Don't Forget, Hatton is a junior Welter

[mick66]

Everyone seems to forget Hatton is a light Welter who could not even make the 147lb limit for the fight...

When you are looking at guys that are at the top of the game, even small differences can mean the difference between winning and losing..

Hatton has shown that carrying the extra weight affects his speed and stamina....from being a bully a lightwelter..he is just average at welter..

And he fought probably the best P4P fighter at a weight that was not ideal...
He really was onto a loser from the start..

PBF v Hatton at Light Welter would be a better contest...Thats not in doubt...
I don't think there is much point of a repeat at 147....but at 140..i recon the fight would be just as big..Floyd would never do it mind..and i don't blame him.
He doesn't have to and it would be a much more difficult fight.

Hatton could make the 147 limit, because he did it agaginst Collazo, but he chose to come in smaller to preserve his speed.
Please stop making excuses.

dont forget mayweather is a featherweight.

i wanted ricky to win but i dont want to hear no excuses

[THe TRiNiTY]

Actually.. making the limit, means being 147 or UNDER. Doesn't mean being AT 147. For example, Cotto was 146 for his last fight. He did OKay for himself. True, Hatton isn't a true WELTERWEIGHT, I'm just saying.

[sonofisis]

LMAO @ "couldn't get up to 147" when he had to lose weight to get there, unlike Floyd.

As if Floyd is a big or "true" welter weight his damn self.

lol, what a ******, floyd is a natural lightweight, what is your point?

dont forget mayweather is a featherweight.

Good k coming. Floyd can't take his punch with him, can't take a punch...
**** got shut down last night.

Its not all weight. Its also talent level. WW is a much deeper and more talented and more dangerous weight class. 2 of Hatton's best 3 opponents were at 147lbs.

He would've struggled against a guy with Collazo's skill even at 140lbs. Its also not like Hatton was coming up multiple weight classes. He was only coming up 1 I repeat ONE weight class.
