    i dont know why people gives too much atention to the weight only with out considering other factors asswell. Floyd begin in a divition much lower than hatton did but Floyd is 5'8 so that means he was pretty much over the average size in the category giving him the flexibility to move up without trouble to further divitions. Obviosly we have to give floyd credit for his dedication to take care of his condition that i think is one of the best or maybe the best in the sport. But Hatton is a guy that is 5'6 and i asurre you that a guy of 5'8 can do better in adapting to the 147 pound to a 5'6. Every one can make a determined weight if you want too but that means that you are going to compete at the same level? i guess not. Hatton sometimes weight more than 160 when he its not training so we can assume that he can make easily a pre fight weight in the 160. But the fact that he can make the weight doesnt nesesarily means that you are going to compete. Hatton sometime has weight 180. Lets put this example if we put DLH vs Hatton in a 154 pound fight who is going to be more comfortable a guy of 5'6 of short extremities or a guy of 5'10.

      Mayweather is even a rather big welterweight! His reach is greater than heavyweight David Tua.
      Kill yourself slowly after that post. Cheers
