    Obviously now it looks even less likely to happen, but has this fight changed your perception of the fight?

    Hatton got beat off the best boxer in the world and got crucified for it. Will Witter get the same treatment for getting beat off a B grade boxer?

    Well Hatton likes to fight guys coming off a loss.

    Doubt It will happen though but I'd rather not watch It.

    Hatton's stamina has dropped and his lack of defence could still lose It but unsure now.

    There's no point of Hatton - Witter. As per usual, Hatton is a couple of steps ahead of Junior.

    It had been 11 fights since Hatton fought somebody coming off a loss before Lazcano, which in itself is a comeback fight for Ricky.

    Making things up to discredit Hatton, what a shocker.....

    Of course not. Nobody with any sense wanted the fight that much even before tonight.

    No I wouldn't want to see it now. Witter looked terrible, his whole style is based on speed and reflexes and they seemed to be missing tonight. Taking nothing away from Bradley who performed well, but Witter just seemed slow by his standards right from the off, he looked his age tonight.

    He does like guys coming off a loss or shot like Castillo and Tszyu.

    Hatton deserves to be discredited.

    At least Bradley Isn't just reliant and his workrate and now Ricky's lost his workrate he;s another KO waiting to happen.

    Tszyu and Castillo were 'shot' after the event, surprise surprise.

    He never fought a guy coming off a loss for 11 straight fights, doesn't seem like he likes fighting guys off a loss as much as you say.....

    Oh, Bradley's better than Hatton now is he? :rofl

    Hatton would have mauled Witter tonight and the fight is totally dead. After that performance i coudlnt give a rats ass anymore.

    Witter did noithing last night but show that he didnt have the work rate or stamina to handle Hatton.

    It will never happen now, but c'mon for ****s sake!!!


    Didn't Witter look all wrong 2nite. I remember Vivian Harris getting stuck into him and still end up getting his head kicked in. You can't tell me Witter has regressed that much in the space of one fight.

    Didn't Bradley look a lot better than we expected him to. The guy has skills; out-countered the counter-puncher. Fair play to him:good

    As I said, the fight with Hatton is down the drain but don't discount the possibility that Witter had an off-night.

    If it was down to you lot Barrera would have been in his coffin straight after the second Junior Jones fight.

    Lack of respect for opinion doesn't get your anywhere with me, seriously.

    Castillo was weight drained and showed how hard It was to be below 10 stone when he couldn't do It against Bradley and he was ****ed up In his wars with Corrales and constant other fighters.

    Tszyu was a guy who relied on timings you with his right hand and was open to being outworked like Hatton did to him and he was never an active champ and stuggled with Jesse James.
