Mayweather says: I wanna hurt ya Hatton! & Witter backs Mayweather to beat Ricky...

For every fighter who comes in a the last minute and does well theres 10 who come in at the last minute and don't. Witter was young and came in at the last moment against a good opponent, to lose on points wasn't too bad a result. Not every stand by opponent is an Azumah Nelson waiting to be discovered.

Nice Ajose connection though....What next, 'Ajose was in a similar situation - he had red gloves on too'?

 

He gave Pryce an ass kicking in his hometown thats what because he really can fight and fears no one. He did not wear red gloves the only red stains would Pryce's blood.

 

:roll:atsch

 

Excellent post......
Totally agree with your point about Witter............There was a time when he should have fought him but that boat has sailed & lets be honest if Ricky does go on to triumph over FM or Cotto for example.........Who is going to remember or care about the Witter match up not happening......??????

 

Hatton will lose to PBF and Cotto hence they will never make these matches.

 

For years i said that Witter did not deserve to share the same ring with Hatton until he actually fought someone of note.

Well now he has a cpl of good wins, WBC Belt and i honestly beleive he deserves a crack at Hatton as he has done everything asked of him......the fact the US tv dont want the fight shouldnt matter a toss - it is a scrap the British fans want to see so all i can say is F*ck off HBO.


Still think Witter is a twat and will get pummelled into retirement if they meet but hey, he now deserves to get the fight.

 

What on earth is wrong with Malignaggi as an opponent if they do meet. The guy just clowned Ndou and shut him out, the guy who took Witter to a split decision.

I don't dismiss Witter as an opponent. He would be a reasonable fight, especially if he beats Harris in September (Harris would also be good if he wins). But so would plenty of others (Mbaye, Malignaggi, Holt, Hopkins). I don't think any of them have done enough to stand out from the crowd. And let's face it, if Hatton had taken on Witter instead of Castillo, the party line would have been "Witter is shot, he struggled mightily with Kotelnik and Lynes, why isn't he fighting xxxxxxx"?

As for Olusegun, this seems to be a clear case of repeat something often enough and people might start to believe it. Good he may be, but he isn't in the top ten or generally known other than by his fans. Hatton would be crucified in the press if he faced him, so I think we can forget about that one.

 

Welcome to my world mate. I got to that stage 2 pages ago, admittedly for different reasons, but I stuck with it.....

 

you see the people who diss hatton and in some ways he deserves some stick,lose all credibility when they then champion someone like olusegun.what's this guy done to deserve this confidence?manage to beat the mighty gary reid and look shite in doing so over 12 laboured rounds,someone hatton would have out of there inside 3 rounds.olusegun's last 5 opponents have lost a combined total of 55 fights with something like only 19 knockouts combined between them(boxrec has it's uses)so they're obviously keeping him well away from punchers in padding his 20-0-0.why is this guy championed? witter i can understand i would like to see him fight hatton,but olusegun? do me a favour.

 

Witter talks utter tripe. Sorry folks. For a boxer, he knows little about boxers and boxing. He just hates Hatton. If Ricky were fighting my pet Iguana he'd back the Iguana. No head/foot movement? Does he follow his own sport.. What a muppet!
As for Mayweather... Well to beat up Hatton he has to engage. Another unlikely scenario I'm afraid.

 

Hatton and Witter will NEVER meet. Personally I think Hatton would win, but it would be one of the worst fights ever, Witter would make Hatton look like a fudd in parts. I think Hatton is patiently waiting till Witter has lost his reflexes, then he will beat him easily enough, but up until then Hatton wont go near Witter. Is Witter a credible opponent?? Of course he feckin is, lets be honest Castillo was absolutly shot, **** he made Hatton look good. If Witter aint good enough to take on Hatton, what can you say about Urango? I would be very surprised if Hatton went anywhere near Cotto, you dont exactly hear people calling him out. Cotto would have Hatton for breakfast. lunch, tea, supper, and just leave his arsehole for riding.

 

Cotto is just too big for Hatton, at least with Mayweather you'd have a guy who was 147 at fight time rather than 154+.
