guarantee witter 15 million, and he'd probably take on pavlik given that amount. corley and harris were top 10 lww's at the time witter fought them. he's now taking on another top 10 ranked lww in demetrius hopkins. malignaggi has beaten one (ngoudjo), torres has beaten one (holt). witter is deserving of this shot, more so in the fact that he holds a belt. hatton not giving him a shot for slagging him off is absurd.
Ok fine, he fought Urango, who's similar. But what's the difference between Hatton fighting Witter, and Hatton fighting any other top 5 fighter? It's not as if Witter is clearly better than any of them...
he could step up and fight ODH, even though i dont think ODH doesn't deserve to fight at the top anymore till he eventually wins, and dont take that like i'm sayin oscar is crap because he isnt but he needs to win to stay at the top. think hatton may be beaten in this one though, DLH is far too big. he has also said he is keen to rematch with PBF. why shouldnt ricky want to be looking at bigger draws than witter??? lets get this straight, i think most people on here know, the witter fight will eventually happen, he needs to go out and beat big names first though and prove he is the best, for god sakes why didnt witter fight malignaggi or rees, why didnt he step up and prove a point to the world and say he is the best at 140?? hopkins doesnt deserve to be in there, he isnt a world beater.
What ? - Hatton sold out the MEN fighting people who no ****er ever knew - so that doesn't wash - im a hatton fan - and i wanna see this fight..
the all british angle, the long standing rivalry, the **** load of cash to be made out of it, the fact that witter is ranked as his main challenger by the ring and other publications. the supposed man at 140 vs. WBC champ at eastlands.
All you do is moan about ****ing Hatton being a runner. He's fought Tszyu, Castillo and Floyd ****ing mayweather and you think he's scared of Witter? FFS!! They obviously don't like each other, if he doesn't want to fight him he's got nothing to prove. Fighting De La Hoya over Witter isn't the sign of a coward.
absolute freakshow. hatton lasts 5 rounds if he's lucky. this is an absolute mismatch that serves zero purpose other than to make a shitload of money. hatton can draw good money on his own fighting genuine contenders in fights that actually mean something. witter is his main threat as recognised by most leading boxing publications and by the fans, end of story. as the champ at 140 it is his duty to defend that title, if he refuses to against a worthy challenger then he should be stripped of that title as he is holding the division hostage.
so if witter is as good as this, why isn't he fighting malignaggi, rees etc and proving he's the best at the division by unifieing it?? Corley, Harris and Hopkins doesn't cut it for me.
why aren't they breaking their balls to meet him? hatton is still the man at the division, just about and everyone wants a shot at him. witter is the most deserving. it's as simple as that really. if he doesn't want to defend his title then he and his fans should relieve him of it.
"he sat in that chair like a fat well fed cat rambling on about meetin DLH.........." PRICELESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl and yes: ricky is a *****.
So Hatton thinks It ok to slag Floyd off to get a fight but thinks It's disrespecting when It's Witter.
Exactly. Makes perfect sense doesnt it. Thats how far his head is up his own arse. But of course his just a "normal lad who likes a pint".
