    Yes I have, Witter is underrated maybe you dont think he is entertaining enough, at 140 I dont see anyone beating him even at 33.

    Do you normally talk through your arse or are you just putting a show on for me....Junior is a good fighter,but thats all,and it tells you something that if he he is the next best thing why is there no real interet in him,he's proved **** all but has improved as fighter that I will give you.......Polotics might make him the number 1 contender because of Hattons defeat,but if yoiu seriously think he has a chance against Ricky it's you that knows **** all about boxing and I think maybe you wanna get a ****ing check up at the quacks because your brain is ****ing oxygen starved..

    What is this sht ? What has Hatton's defeat got anything to do with Witter being the number one contender you dunse ? Hatton was beat at 147 , he is still the 140 champ and Witter was number 1 contender before that and still is.
    And did i say Witter is the next big thing ? I havent even said Witter would beat Hatton , i just dont like seeing a deserving number 1 contender being starved of a title chance , he deserves a shot at Hatton.
    And the reason Witter doesnt pull big crowds is because people only come out in huge numbers to see brawlers like Hatton , people who dont know and appreciate defensive masterclasses and other finer points of the art. You are realy embarrasin

    I don't agree....he deserves no more or les than Rees or Malignaggi would in taking him on.Whats embarassing is the way Junior is prostituting himself for a fight,there are other boxers he could take on,but to constantly push for a fight he knows won't happen for at least 12 months is ****ing sad.....Hattton has done what he's needed too to get this far,and is gonna make a few more quid by fighting someone the networks want to see...HE OWES WITTER **** ALL

    He owes it to the British Public, and to his rise to the top, he ducked Witter, Cotto and Judah.

    I can understand why he'd duck Judah, stylistic nightmare for Ricky.

    He'll beat Witter if they eventually fight.

    And he would have beaten the less experienced, weight drained, glass jawed Cotto that fought at LWW.

    Can't see how he actually ducked Cotto and Judah though, can't ever remember serious mentions of these fights??

    Hatton is champ though and should feel obliged to defend against the guy that is widely regarded as his number 1 contender . You cant agree with what Hatton is doing , Witter has wanted him for years , i dont like it

    You can't believe that he's ducking Witter because that implies he's scared of him.......So he'll fight the best p4p boxer on the planet but won't take on Junior:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

    To be honest I want him to take the fight just to shut the **** up..........but I'll defend his right to select an opponent based upon the size of the purse not the Belt at stake,he's still in the drivers seat and only has around three fights left and wants to maximise his Earnings....Why not?

    Judah, Cotto, Harris and Gatti called out Hatton when he beat Tszyu, Cotto said he wanted too fight him and would anywhere. Hatton chose Harris who got KO'ed by Maussa who went on to fight Hatton.

    I think Cotto would be the tougher fight for Ricky,he's a strong lad,I just don't see any winner other than him if he fought Witter.

    Hadn't Judah been fighting at welterweight for a while before and after the Tszyu fight??

    Cotto actually said he'd like to fight Hatton the year after, he didn't want Hatton after Tszyu....then he outgrew the division.

    Gatti and Harris both got beat up badly, ruining any chances they had for a Hatton match.

    Judah was I think IBF 140 champ - There was no pre Tszyu welter fights.

    In fact the fight before was their double header when Judah knock his guy out early and then spent the entire Tszyu Vs Urkal fight mocking Tszyu's style.

    Good times.

    Hatton is flat out avoiding Witter. Money schmoney - Achievement deserves rewards - Witter has done the hard yards and deserves a shot.
