    They'll never take Witter.

    That's Hatton's entire claim to being a British great hanging on one 50/50 (give or take) fight.

    and I should note that I don't want anything do to with a Hatton/PBF rematch, but why not try to dethrone the king again if your his management?

    Exactly.

    It appears PBF wants it again, so Hatton has to take it as far as I'm concerned.

    Any fight is only one punch from being over. Hatton has a slight chance and that's why he has to go for it.

    I'll respond more to question of what would I do if I were Ricky's management team rather than fights I would necessarily like to see, such as Witter for example.

    After his fight with Lazcano, I would match him up against Paul Malignaggi for the IBF light welterweight title. If he comes through that fight then I would look to move him up to welterweight for 1 fight. I know he's been rubbish at welter twice now against Mayweather and Collazo, but I would look to set-up a rematch with Money May because it would be another huge-fight and another big payday for Ricky. I would therefore suggest taking on someone like Steve Forbes, who is more well-known now after taking on Oscar and he wasn't disgraced at all, but he isn't a natural welter at all and I feel Ricky would outwork him. Then set-up the Money May rematch.
