Mayweather eyeing Hatton rematch

FLOYD MAYWEATHER JR has approached Ricky Hatton’s team about a possible rematch in 2009, according to the Englishman’s camp.

Mancunian Hatton suffered his only professional defeat at the hands of pound-for-pound king Mayweather a year ago, being comprehensively beaten inside 10 rounds in Las Vegas.

The 30-year-old two-weight world champion has spoken of his desire for a rematch with Mayweather, who retired after the victory.
