    It's true, Hatton-Witter is a good fight. It just isn't the only one, as people are making out.

    I'm pretty sure we are quite aware it isn't the only one, considering Hatton has taken every fight he possibly could except this one over the years

    It doesn't sound like it. Any comment about Hatton is followed by "...Witter...".

    :good

    I wanna see him fight Pac for the spectacle then Witter.

    If Malignaggi was thrown in there at some point then I'd see at as a nice holiday to New York but wouldnt be too bothered if that fight wasnt made.

    Its Hatton v Pac - out of those option that I'd like to see most. Closely followed by Witter.

    Well for the purposes of discussion I'll get off and work myself into a faux-frenzy about Khan not fighting Romanov and we can have a good row about that.

    People do dick all over Khan for taking easy fights if you hadn't noticed, and they would have a point, although I feel the circumstances are somewhat different :D

    They're very different, Khan didn't fight the best p4p fighter in the world 5 months ago.

    Khan also didn't avoid the same guy for years on end :yep

    Like Urango, Maussa, Phillips, Tackie, ****in Vilches, Magee etc?

    Actually, that would be quite a step up for Khan. Not sure that is the case for Hatton mind... :yep

    No you are correct - but Khan has consistently avoided a group of guys for the duration of his career. Notably guys capable of hitting him back. Surely that is a bigger sin :deal

    Like those and Tszyu, Mayweather, Castillo, Collazo... and so on. Yes.

    That he has. Whether its a bigger sin, I'm not sure. At some point, Khan will have to face a puncher, and he'll sink or swim. Judging from the noise coming out of Hatton's gob I'm losing faith he'll ever grow the balls to take a fight with Witter

    And why couldn't he take this fight instead of some of the names I just mentioned? There are countless others if you'd like me to remind you...

    Do you have a stock excuse for all of those fighters? They aren't all world beaters...

    That is where this line of argument falls down
