    Quintana they want no part of him and he is the guy that can probably smoke this guy, they want no part of Collazo or Cintron, why Urango it figures take the easy way out and why Zab everybody favorite patsy these days guys turned into an opponent.
    I cant wait fot Berto to get exposed. It s only a matter of time you can run but you cant hide

    If he manages to scrape by whomever he fights in may, he should face a real man in Hatton after he blasts Pacman outta there.. lets say hatton vs Berto in november, and hatton wins easy ud

    I dont think Hatton would mind snagging another welterweight wbc belt to cement his atg status

    besides, after he takes pac out, theres not much competition, less he wants to take out JMM, but bradley and holt dont hold much challenge or glory for him

    rematch with collazo or quintana

    he has to keep moving up in levels of competion before he ends up in the ring with cotto or clottey
    no backpeddaling on name/money fights
    he should not go for any easier opposition as it would not be good for his career
    so i would only choose two fight from here a rematch or quintana

    after these maybe cintron

    if he gets past all these then he will be ready for the final step up to the very top level

    Hatton openly declared 147 is not for him . . . and besides why would Berto fight a stepping up fighter when the rest of the other title holders are fighting each other? That doesn't look good.

    Collazo or Sotto Carras would be better if he won't fight Mosley now . . . then a unification with the winner of Cotto/Clottey or Mosley later.

    Shane Mosley, but Berto's people may not want this fight.

    The feeling is mutual from Mosley who craves a big money fight.

    After Malignaggi, Hatton stated that he would move up to 147 for the right fight. Translation is he probably would fight there for Mayweather again.

    Fight Collazo for $$$$ in Florida. Or rematch Collazo in NYC on the Cotto undercard. Or he can come to the West Coast and get KTFO by SSM.

    At 147 Hatton would get brutalized.
