    Hopefully they get him a couple of belts at Light welter and by that time Pacquaio will be ready to fight him. What a match that will be, amazing potential, really amazing.

      lol@the guy saying gpb think hatton is shot. what decent names are at 140lps? i laughed when you said, ricardo torres, gavin rees and kendell holt. unfortunetly for hatton, the bigger names ARE a division below, fortuetly they all want to go up a weight division to LWW. don't see why hatton can't go to lw and be a 3 division champ though.

      the people at welterweight are way to big for hatton, looking at hattons amateur career, he even struggled then at welterweight. hes only 5ft 6 remember, most welterweights are 6ft+. ricky would demolish anyone at lww, ricardo torres for example is just another juan urango, he has a good dig but has no boxing skills whatsoever, so probably would land next to nothing punches on ricky throughout the fight.

          doubt it they both come in with there face wide open I take it you didnt watch the katsidis vs casamayor fight?
          Hatton has a better chin then Katsidis in my opinion.
          there would be a ton of headbutts in that fight they would both come forward lunging in.

            The only welterweight over 6ft I can think of that's active is Paul Williams, that statement's not accurate. That said it is clear that Hatton is too small for welter. I would love a Hatton vs. Pacquioa fight!!

                148 fight night while Hatton is 151-154 ,,,, we will have call you Flip Flop Jeffries , wern't you saying loudly how Floyd was bigger than Hatton even though Hatton weighed more than Floyd on fight night ,,, Flip Flop youve done it again

                  There should never be another floyd vs hatton fight!! it's as pointless as a 16 seed vs a 1 seed in the ncaa basketball tournament. Why isn't nate campbell in the hatton talks?.....oh that's right he's ****ing himself over by opening his mouth.

                    I think Hatton losing to Diaz or Pac hurts his overall reputation though...
                    Hatton is gonna retire soon he wants to go out with a **** by fighting big names, something which the jr ww division lacks.

                    As long as he ain't fighing Mayweather

                      Pac - Super Featherweight,came from Light Flyweight
                      Diaz - Lightweight
                      Katsidis - Lightweight

                      Why does Golden Boy want Hatton to fight small guys,all 3 are great match ups,but can also be mis-matches just because of the size,but Pac has the power to hurt Hatton,bad
