Should Ricky get off his high horse and change his mind about fighting Witter?

    nah, i rather have Floyd destroy Witter in front of his fans again

    Hatton, should stay at welterweight but start climbing up slowly before taking on a title shot

    Well considering all the **** we've heard about Rick having the AMPLE time to prepare for a WW showdown and this time he did in fact get KTFO, surely he has to head back to the talent stacked 140 div. and who else could he face but the domestic WBC Champion Witter?? Unless of course he decides to just retire now.

    No. He should fight Cotto and then retire.

    If he cannot get a big name to fight him in the states then he should just retire.

    He has done enough, and doesnt need to go back and make someone who has been smack talking him since day one very rich off the back of his following.

    Also, I think that Witter has a good shout of beating him.:deal
    Why not get beat and make as much money as possible, rather than get beat against a guy who cannot draw flies to ****.:lol:

    I'd love to see Hatton-Witter. Witter could beat him...

    If he goes back down, he definitely has to fight Witter.

    Although, in all seriousness, if Ricky now took on and defeated Witter he would be right back in the mix of talks of upper world class fighters. I think it should be his next step for sure.

    I fight with Witter or Paulie would be cool.

    He better get back down to 140 or retire. If he stays at 147 he will get KOed again even faster. There's less danger facing someone like Paulie at 140.

    Witter beats Hatton that's why Hatton has ducked him. You wont see Hatton fighting Witter especially after the way Witter KTFO of Harris
