nop, its never going to happen. I'm not just saying this because i'm more of a fan of Ricky than Junior, because they are both terrific champs for Britain, but i really cant see this going through, what ever money is offered. Hattons going to keep digging at a rematch with Mayweather i reckon, although i think he blew his chance too much, well he didnt but floyd did!!
I actually dont even care about this now. Ricky doesnt seem to want it and Witter doesnt seem to have enough backing to make it happen. The only hope Witter has is if he beats Hopkins and the media back him because he bet Bernards nephew, something stupid like that might be good for him Hatton..no comment.. just a sigh!! Lazcona who or whatever his name is?
The Hopkins fight is off, he'll have to fight someone elses nephew to get the recognition he deserves.
Agree with most of what others have said. Hatton has stated on numerous occasions that instead of beating Witter to a pulp in order to shut him up and stop his tauntings, he'd rather be a ***** and deny Witter a career high payday. Hatton's career is based on beating bums and active world champions. He is not interested in fighting world class fighters unless the money is large. Hatton needs to grow some balls and think about what the public wants to see. Who cares about Lazcano and Malignaggi, both are fights Hatton will win relatively easily. He is far to go to face these types of fighters at this stage of his career.
Yeah didn't seem anyone minding witter fighting a bloke who got beat of forbes, whilst hatton gets slated for what people preceive as a gimme.:good
