Hang on a second, who was Ricky Hatton when he was fighting for intercontinental titles? Who was he when he was defending his WBU title? Sure he had a following alright, but he was hardly the crossover, tabloid front page, ubiquitous figure that he is now. How much money do you think his opponents earned when he was defending that shitty WBU trinket? Do you think Stephen Smith is set up for life? Or Freddie Pendleton looks back at the footage of himself rolling around on the canvas in agony thinking, 'It was worth it. Look at my palatial surroundings. All because I fought Ricky.' The point i'm trying to make is if they had fought for the WBU title, Junior wouldn't have exactly earned a retirement fund in a night. And furthermore all this talk of giving Junior a pay day might explain the reason for why this fight never took place once Ricky beat Tszyu. But prior to that the idea that there were leagues in between them is nonsense.
The reason that Hatton never fought Witter at domestic level was because Hattins promoter back then was not going to roll the dice with Witter as it was a very awkward fight for Hatton where he had everything to lose at the time...:scaredas: I always said back then that Witter would have beaten Hatton...as Hatton progressed the gap became bigger in his favour. Hatton would never give Witter the payday on the back of his name, and rightly so...:yep
Hattons stand up comedian routine is crass as well Always cracking vile jokes - that appeal to his brainwashed mug fans All them mugs that pack into the stadiums and sing along to blue moon Everything that Hatton stands for - leaves me cold The crass jokes The false crying girlfriend The popping out for condoms in his slippers The fried breakfasts The boozing The ducking Witter The money orienated **** mentality - bred into him by father Ray etc etc etc etc etc
Do you like Hatton or not then? Stop beating around the ****ing bush! But seriously I booze, I like fried breakfasts and I like money, does that make me a ****? I dont know what Hatton's done to upset some people.
what a wanker you are get a grip eh. Hatton ducking witter but fighting pac and mayweather have you been smoking crack?!? Or maybe your just clueless and jealous of hattons achivements in the ring. Boxing has been a better sport over because of hatton that's a fact. Icemax or whatever your called it was states in the local news paper to Tameside about the fight being offered and not taken it was a statement made by his laywer mr Williams. Maybe hatton could of faught witter early on but as has been stated you couldn't look good against witter which when you carving out career as an exciting boxer.
Typical Hatton fan: Rude Vile Drunk Obnxious Offensive Name Calling - Wanker - Tosser - ***** - Twat - (whatever obsencity) Chanting Shouting Chav Thoughtless MUG Thinks Hatton "loves the fans" :dead:dead:dead
why the hate for ricky ?? i thought all the hate would be for junior ? while witter has never bee a money maker, hes very talented and this fight would have been huge years ago, witter talks as good as game as hatton, feel that witter would given hatton all the trouble in the world, great reflexes!!
