[Rumors] Hatton vs Freitas

[big-lynch]

says in todays newspaper here in the uk that Hatton vs Freitas is offical !

[DIEGO DA HITMAN]

I like Arcelino Freitas, I really do, but the Raheem match-up makes a lot more sense. He got stopped by my boy Chico at 135, and he's thinking of going up to 140 to take on the relentless Hatton? Just doesn't sound like a great idea to me, but you never can tell. I'd still buy the PPV, though.

I think Hatton would make him say no mas like he did against corrales.

I don't know man I thought Freitas fought a completely awful fight against Corrales and just ran out of gas.

That was long time ago. When fighter come back from a loss they dont come back as equal but someone stronger,faster and more endurance thirsty for a win.

Pope is young and have a long time in boxing there is no reason that he could make an upset Hatton.

Well thats what I was implying, Freitas choose to fight the wrong fight.

UK newspapers always say stuff is official when its not...

i think popo will be dangerous for a few (4ish) rounds then hatton will simply wear him down, popos small size will help him early but hinder him late, should be good fight

[LostGuy]

why would hatton want this fight except for an explosive us debut i guess. he will only get made fun of and people will say corrales wrecked freitas already and freitas is a 135 pound fighter. hatton should fight someone known at 140 i think. he would be wise to jump on gatti at welter. he could come in at 140.1 just for that fight if he wants to still campaign at 140.
