    The reason FMJ didnt take the fight now is because Hatton looks to be the path of least resistance of the three big money fights Cotto/Shane/Hatton.

    Cotto sliced up Zab worse than FMJ did on his move up to WW.

    Shane showed his handspeed is still up there with his shutout of Collazo.

    Hatton really struggled with Collazo at WW, so he is the easiest of the three at WW. . .. thats why Fraud chose him.

    at what weight??? and did Castillo look like an old fighter with wobbly legs or what.

    not to take anything away from Hatton, he beat the man they put in front of him but lets be honest. . . Hatton is not the same fighter at 147 compared to 140. . . thats why Fraud chose him.

    Judah didnt look like Castillo - Castillo looked like all those drag out wars finally caught up with him - he was one of my favorite fighters - but thsi is just the truth. Judah did not look like that, actually put up a good fight and still got beat down hard. . . two totally different stories buddy.

    Collazo-Hatton could have easily been scored a draw . . .its not like Collazo is battle worn like Castillo . . .another horrible comparison. :patsch

    its not even a comparisoni but your acting like mayweather is fighting hatton after he looked horrible, when in reality he is fighting a top 10 p4p coming off A career best win

    Serious question. Has Cotto or his handlers ever mentioned Floyd as a potential opponent?

    the weight doesnt matter in this fight, mayweather is no welter and neither is hatton, neither are the bigger guy, 1 started at light-welter and 1 at super-feather and your saying that

    how, hatton is more proven than cotto and is younger frsher coming off a better win than mosley

    people criticize hatton for fighting a shot castillo, cotto-castillo were more or less confirmed last year until reasons stopped it

    Floys was not available after PW ruined the Cotto-AM fight. . . he was already dialed in on Hatton so Cotto had to go to Shane. Fraud could have easily waited a week or two to see the PW-AM outcome. Cotto is the bigger fight in the US, I dont see FMJ fighting Hatton in England.

    Thats the truth, they are both at fault. I dont think either fears the other, its just that in boxing sometimes making fights is like this. For one reason or another the stars never alighn.
