    What was it he said in the same interview?

    "I don't think I could be accused of ducking anybody" or something to that effect :rofl

    Sure Ricky. You've been ducking him so long you have forgotten he exists.

    Fatton is a joke figure, he's a manipulative fraud and it's just a shame that there are so many people out there so stupid as to fall for his nonsense.
    He's an insult to real boxing fans.

    Most of Hatton's fans are very stupid. They're Manchester City supporters by and large.









    :yep :good

    Hatton's choices for his comeback fight were

    Torres
    Holt
    Witter
    Lazcano
    Rees

    He chose the weakest of the 5 and the one that gives the least amount of reward, and the fact that this is a PPV tells you, whoever buys it is stupid.

    I haven't paid for any of his **** fights since the one with Kostya; I'm not even sure if I paid for that one (PBF fight was free).

    I'm tired of hand-picked garbage. Castillo kicked the **** out of Lazcano years ago; the guy is not the same fighter he was before that fight. Even before it he wasn't exactly forcing his way into the elite category.

    Just 1 question for the Witter fans please.

    Why was/is Witter allowed to get away with fighting Morua as a first defence, put in a **** performance yet get away with the slagging off.

    Yet Hatton has a tune up after his first defeat against Lazcarno, who granted is past his best, yet was being lauded as a great win for Harris only a few months back. This was after i questioned the "good" win for Witter over Harris, the main reply i got back was Harris is number 3 in the division and he has just had a great win over Juan Lazcarno.

    Yet Hatton gets stick for fighting him now:huh

    Every fighter try's to promote and sell their fight, tell white lies. I never seen one saying, don't bother coming along my opponents crap.


    What other established British big name fighter has fought recently at UK times, certainly not Calzaghe or Haye.

    This fight shouldn't be PPV, but the bottom line is, is that he is fighting at UK times. That is a fact and it's nice to see.

    Anyone who thinks that after being Ko'ed by Mayweather, Hatton should have chosen his tune up fight to have been against Witter, is even more stupid then a fan who believes absolutely everything that comes out of a boxers mouth.

    Hatton needs to make sure his fights are in England only, so that he can fight superior fighters like Kostya Tsyzu and cheat.

    to be honest I was expecting an even worse opponent handpicked by Hatton for this one.
    the issue is wider than that. Firstly, Hatton's blatant ducking of Witter FOR MANY YEARS NOW, and secondly all the rubbish Hatton feeds to the people and they believe him.

    I dont want to go over old ground, Hatton v Witter.

    I posted a while back that Witters victory over Harris wasnt as good as people thought, mainly because Harris is one of the poorest champions of recent memory. Well needless to say alot of people where claiming he was top 3 in the division and he had just beaten a quality fighter(LAZCARNO) in a good close fight.

    Now the same people are discrediting Lazcarno as old, small and handpicked (which i agree with). But whilst slagging off Hatton v Lazcarno, when i mention the fact that Witter handpicked Morua i never hear a peep again.

    Dont get me wrong the fight is a good pick me up and should provide Hatton with a devastating win to get his confidence going.
