True. There's a very good article in the last issue of 'The Ring' magazine on the subject of day before the fight weigh-ins thats worth a read.

More murmurs that Mayweather will definitely be returning. Hatton/Mayweather will probably be on, but not sure when it will happen if it does.

Hatton has put his dream on the table - Pacquaio in May, Marquez end of the year, Mayweather jnr next summer in his last ever fight. Obviously he's got to get past Pacquaio, but he's aiming high.

I've seen a few clips of Hatton in training recently and he looks sensational. He's at his fighting weight already (154lbs), he's fast, slick and his stamina is already looking superb. The only worry I have for Hatton is that he's peaked too soon. If he times it right, he'll be superb come May 2nd, I've no doubt about it.

Pacquaio was 151 against DLH and Roach has said his fight weight against Hatton will be 147 so Hatton will have a good half-stone advantage. And before anyone says about DLH's size, he only managed to put on 2lbs so Pacquaio actually weighed heavier.

Hatton's sounds very assured and has stated Pacquaio is vulnerable to body shots and has been troubled in this area by far less harder punchers than Hatton.

For all the money going on Pacquaio, if Hatton lands a body shot like he did against Castillo then Pacquaio is going down - I don't care what anyone says.
