Hatton: "Two Fights, Then Mayweather Rematch"

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

It appears that Ricky Hatton will actively pursue a rematch with Floyd Mayweather Jr. for 2009. Hatton moved up to welterweight division last December and suffered the first loss of his career after being stopped by Mayweather in the tenth-round of their bout in Las Vegas. Following the loss, Hatton announced that he would move back down to 140-pounds. [details]

That would suck. I would much rather ODLH vs Hatton @ Wembley.

[Orange Sneakers]

Did Hatton even land one punch of any significance?

Uhh, why?

If de la Hoya tried, he'd take Hatton in three rounds.

Well, Cortez was definitely off that night and giving Hatton hell for no reason whatsoever, breaking them whenever Hatton even got close, and warning Hatton when they were both holding, allowing absolutely no infighting whatsoever, etc. Uncharacteristically bad refing by Cortez, who is normally very good.

BUT (and it's a big but) Hatton is just too small to compete above 140. Floyd is too big for him, pure and simple. Hatton will lose again, whether he's allowed to fight inside or not.
