15 defences actually - about 14 too many. Warren had the buying power to make big fights, but for some reason, couldn't make them. It was only when Hatton threatened to leave that he made the Tszyu fight - and good on him for that actually.
I don't think FW ever actually wanted Hatton to fight Zoo. Wasn't it the last fight on his contract with Ricky? I reckon he knew that he'd lose Ricky if he didn't make the fight so he pulled out all the stops to make it happen. As it happens Hatton left him afterwards anyway. It wouldn't surprise me if FW made more money on Hatton's WBU title fights than from the Zoo fight.
You mean it took Hatton 15 defences to realise to ditch that garbage? Frank may have had his hand in it but as far as im concerned Ricky is far more to blame here. His the one doing the fighting not Frank. Hatton left the same as Naz did because he simply didnt need Warren anymore nor the large cut that he took.
hey the man has a point. if someone talks **** and you are offended, beat him up if you can. bash his face in, shut him up for good. what is the problem???? that IS what a real warrior like vargas would do. end of story. it is what a real man would do. but saying things like "i wont fight him so he will be sad not getting the payday" is girly. remember: laywers talk, fighters fight!!!
