    No point

    Im a Hatton fan but at Welterweight Mayweather is just too big for Hatton

    At Light welterweight (which will never happen) it would be a hell of a lot closer but I still think Mayweather is too quick, and too clever

    No PBF beats Hatton at any weight at any place.

    Mayweather needs to fight a top welterweight and Hatton needs to fight Pacquiao.

    since he's outclassed in his previous outing with mayweather, a return bout would be the same outcome. mayweather is to classy for hatton. bring hatton vs pacman. that's a perfect match, non-stop action. can't wait to see that! bring them on.

    Absolutely not. Beating Lazcano in unimpressive fashion and then steamrolling Malignaggi has not done anything to warrant a rematch with Floyd.

    If PBF comes back then I would rather see him fight Margo, Cotto or Williams.

    There are still a lot of guys for Hatton to fight. There are some good guys at 135 who might jump up to 140 (and hatton loves to have a size advantage) or I do believe he said he is considering doing 147 again.


    Hatton-Pacman would be interesting.

    Theres too many other fights I would rather see than a PBF-Hatton rematch, but knowing PBF, he might take it if there was a lot of money offered to him.

    I have no interest in Hatton-Mayweather 2. Hatton has little chance. But I wouldn't be surprised if it happened. The first fight did big business, Mayweather un-retiring would create a buzz, Hatton just scored his biggest win in years, Mayweather Sr. is Hatton's trainer. A rematch would have a lot going for it. Have it take place in Britain and I think it would be quite the money maker.

    But if Mayweather were to come back to just face Hatton that would be a waste. Mayweather has a number of welters he could face and Hatton-Pacquaio is the superfight Hatton should be angling for regardless if Pacquaio wins or loses to DLH.

    I think fighting Maywether again is simply hubris. He will be overreaching himself. He might convince himself he has a chance and genuinely feel he knows "what to do this time after the first time." But Mayweather is the Oxford, Cambridge, Yale and Harvard of the sqared circle - far too intelligent for Hatton.

    Mind - well done to him.
