Its all conjecture until we get official word, but Kat adds up when you take into account Ricky's comments in his press conference. You wouldn't consider Kat a journeyman, and most wouldn't begrudge Hatton this caliber of opponent based on a KO2 and the long layoff.
Irrespective of the originality of the Daily Star article on the comeback, it was correct. It might be a scummy, dog**** tabloid but its not all going to be false.
Whoever he fights, a brawler over a slickster is the best move for him.

I don't think Hatton should fight him. Hatton said he wanted to fight a good welterweight so if he won he would be in line for a tittle shot. Katsidis is rated by boxrec as the # 27 lightweight in the world. Nobody ranks him anywhere at 147. How would beating Katsidis earn him a tittle shot at 147? Hatton brings in the money so he could probably get a welterweight tittle shot just by asking for one. If Hatton really wants to earn a welterweight tittle shot beating Katsidis would not do that. As you pointed out, Katsidis lost 4 of his last 5 fights and he fights at 135.
