Ricky Hatton may have suffered his first loss at the hands of Floyd Mayweather Jr. last weekend in Las Vegas, but another opportunity is in the works. [details]

Oscar knows its Cotto or nothing.

i DO NOT want this fight to ever happen. DLH is far to big and strong. Its an unfair fight to make. DLH is just so eager to beat up on a smaller guy.

I would LOVE to see the UNBELIEVABLE environment for the fight, but it wouldnt be worth it

I'd rather see him fight Hatton then Cotto.

Hatton was too small for Mayweather.. Wouldn't stop De La Hoya though.

DLH loves picking on the little popular guys.

Ricky should steer well clear of this fight, it's obvious after the PBF fight he doesn't have the power or the reach to trouble the best boxers at Welterweight, he should make the smart move and drop down to Lightweight and hope for a showdown with Pacman over the next year or two.

De La Hoya would probably finish him earlier then Floyd did IMO.

No reason to make this fight. Hatton got dropped by Floyd and Oscar is bigger and hits harder. I dont feel like seeing Hatton get murdered in the ring.

Right, this is exactly what we need. Another 147 fight for Ricky. I mean, he has looked astounding in his two fights at 147, so why not take another one?

Hopefully Ricky is smarter than Zab Judah and stays at 140, where he is the best.
