    In his last six bouts he has fought four world champs and one Brit/Euro champ.

    Witters made his name of fighting guys who can be a bit avoided like himself - N'dou, Corley and Harris.

    The man has a quality record. One loss in a short notice fight versus a quality fighter is hardly bad.

    Hatton should never be forgiven for this ducking.

    four FORMER world champs in his last 6... WOW.
    Hatton fought four CURRENT world champs in a row before taking on the #1 contender and the p4p #1.

    Maussa beat Harris before Witter did it.
    Malignaggi beat N'dou far easier than Witter did it.
    Corley is shot.

    Hatton doesn't need to fight Witter, get over it.

    I agree achilles. This thing about the records and how much better Hatton's is, well it's a total fallacy.
    Hatton has the better wins overall no doubt (and he has the more devestating loss), but there's not as much in it as Ricky and his people and sackswingers like to make out.

    Witter lost on points to Judah on short notice and when he was green.

    Hatton got blootered and knocked out against a guy whose power he was mocking leading up to the fight, a guy who pre-Hatton had not put a dent in an opponent, elite or not, never mind knock them out, for a loooong time.

    It may have had something to do with Hatton coming forward all night, compared with Witter running all night.
    Plus, Mayweather beat Judah. :deal who Witter ran from for 12 rounds. :hi:

    man, you are a total joke.:patsch

    more like Hatton handpicked a bunch of guys who stumbled across belts,then to turn round and say 'I''ve won x world titles'. Look at the quality of the opposition and where they are in their respective careers, otherwise you are falling for Hatton's nonsense and all this 'i've fought some of the best p4p fighters in the world'.
    Maussa beats Harris 2/10 times max. Urango got his belt with a consensus gift decision against Ben Rabah for ****s sake. We saw what a real elite fighter does to Collazo, when Mosley kicked his ass. Who did he win the WBU off again? Stephen Smith?

    You can not blame Hatton for not wanting to fight Witter. The just got severely embarrassed so he must be shitting the thought of fighting an half decent opponent.

    Oh dear, if you are trying to do down Mayweather your opinion is instantly invalid. He's a virtuoso, without question, and however you dress it up he's always carried pop. He just chooses not to use it against massively bigger guys like Baldomir and Oscar.

    There are so many holes in that post I don't have time to even go into them. Junior's biggest wins are against 'B' class fighters, most of whom were ALSO shot, I'm afraid.

    You can say Tszyu and Castillo were past their best but the version of Corley that Witter beat was an empty shell. I told friends to tune in and I was ashamed at what transpired.

    Junior is in the position he's in because the division has thinned around him while he's been treading water.

    I don't dislike Junior, I support him when he fights, but things are getting so twisted on this issue it's a joke.

    others fighters went forward all night but never got banjoed like that by PBF. Bacon boy said in 24/7 'I hope Floyd hits me harder than he hits them fookin pads' :lol:
    Have you seem Witter-Judah by the way, it don't sound like it.

    this latest stuff from Hatton from the front page.

    "It was very hard initially," Hatton said when reflecting on his loss to Mayweather. "In the first few weeks I watched the fight and it was hard but I went away, had a rest and a holiday and watched it again. A lot of people said I lost convincingly but they can't have known that much about boxing as that's not what happened at all. For the first six or even rounds it was even-stevens but I lost my cool with a few of the [referee's] decisions and got frustrated and allowed myself to get into the position where he was able to finish me off."


    "Even though I went up a weight I was looking strong," Hatton declared. "But I felt I had one hand tied behind my back with some of the decisions by the referee. Everything was going against me but even with that it was even until the 7th round. Maybe I can do better next time."

    Of course, Hatton hand picked 4 world champions, and beat them. Witter's never beat one world champion ever. :hi:
    Doesn't matter how you try and dress it up, that's how it is.

    Hatton sold the fight real good, that's why Mayweather wants to fight him again, along with everyone else.

    And yes, I've seen Witter-Judah. I have a copy if you want to see a little ***** run all night.

    I agree Corley was past his best, and very possibly Harris. Kotlenik was not, and what about n'Dou? If he was done when Witter beat him them what was he when Paulie beat him? Is this the best win on Paulie's record? Perhaps Ngoujou but then most felt Paulie got a gift there.
    The Paulie who is being talked up so much that Wicky needs a tune-up before fighting him! Gimme a feckin break.

    Leon Spinks beat Ali 100% of the time.
    Buster Douglas beat Tyson 100% of the time.
    Baldomir beat Judah 100% of the time.
    and on and on.

    what a tube I am for bothering debating with you people :lol:
