Why are some of the elite welters targetting Hatton?

[larryx]

Because Hatton doesn't look that great at 147. He won a controversial decision against Collazo and was outclassed by Mayweather. I think Cotto and Mosley are too strong for him, he could maybe keep it competitive, but I see both guys knocking him out. Especially a body shot from Cotto or a left hook from Mosley.

its not like their forcing him to go up to 147..hattons a grown man he knows his limits

It doesn't matter if Hatton is game, a lot of fighters think they are the dogs bollocks but the fans generally have a better idea of who will win. Hatton might just be in it for the money too.

I hope so, because that fight won't be at any other weight.

I wouldn't blame him for not going up to 147.

True, but getting a serious beat down is probably as embaressing as ducking someone.

naw that aint right..if he takes his beating he should get respect right??

[Jim Jeffries]

Because there's more money to be made fighting Hatton than anyone else right now. DLH has lost his sizzle and Floyd probably won't be coming back until the IRS starts seizing his stuff.

Oh yeah, he is a tough man.
