I dont think the 147lbs weight limit is that big of an issue, its just Hatton fought two fighters that were his kryptonite. Mayweather was obviously levels above him and Collazo was a good counter punching lefty.

    It gets on my nerves when Hatton says **** like im not a 147lbs when he loses, but he keeps taking fights at that weight. I would not be suprised if he goes up there again if the money is right.

    Hatton looked like a LMW against Malignaggi. Malignaggi actually looked like a true 140lbs.
    Every fighter has a comfort zone or comfort weight. And no **** money would influence his decision to fight at 147, lol thats the point of money.

    But Hatton definanly isn't a 147lb fighter. The names up there would eat him alive, 140 is perfect for him.

      Hatton lost to Floyd because Floyd was levels above him

      Hatton would also lose to any top WW, not because of weight, because he is a level below the likes of Mosley and Cotto

      Most Great fighters can move up in weight, ( Leonard, Mayweather, Ping Ping etc ) Hatton just doesn't have the skills to do that

      Still one of my favourite fighters, i'm just not biased or deluded when i judge how good he is

          That's pretty much how you come across...the way you insanely pump him up and defend him...like a groupie does their favorite rock star....

          I mean...look at your avatar....there he is....in the fat suit...

          You wouldn't mind if he let himself go....you'd throat him in his fattest and most disgusting condition.....just admit it...

          Love is blind.

              Every fighter has loyal fans, British ones do seem more loyal i admit, its not a bad thing. Just imagine if i was to bring floyd into this i would get pounded by hundreds of pretty boys.

                Am pretty sure it was Hatton's old trainer Billy Graham who said Hatton wasn't a 147 pounder and not Hatton himself? Could be wrong?

                Hatton's a midget so he needs to be the bigger man hence the comfort at 140. Going to 147 puts him on the same playing filed which doesn't help considering he relies heavily on his strength and being the bigger man.

                  It is a bad thing, you dont support a fighter, because he comes from Britain when there are more than likely better fighters out there you could support, but you dont support them, because they are not British.

                  You are not a true fan of Boxing if thats the case. Boxing is about who entertains you more not............ that guy doesn't impress me as much as this guy, but i will support that guy, because he comes from same place as me.
