Good stuff mate, yes shame for Hall but props to Small, did you hear Hall has left Hughes after that fight after being with him since 13, so i guess something wasnt rite there.

yeah i heard hes gone with karl ince mate, heard hall say that it was time for a change, who nos what went on, something about him being over trained or something, he did look very pedestrian to be fair, i dont want to take nothing away from small tho he did what he had to do, dont want to go off topic here but what did u think off khans performance

In fairness it was the worst case of ducking in recent times, Hatton only got
away with it because of his fanbase, I'd like to see Witter win this, I think he'd take Khan out as well, Hatton still wouldnt fight him though...

Gonna have to disagree with you on this one, the only reason that Witter was even in the same frame as Hatton was that he was nearly world level and that he was at the same weight.

Since Witter got hold of his belt, Hatton's always been looking at bigger and brighter stars than Witter. Witter's main problem is that he has no fanbase at all, so he has to go through the mainstream rankings, as he doesn't bring the attraction of fans and money to the table. Hatton fills out the City of Manchester stadium and gets dragged to Las Vegas, Witter's fighting at the Doncaster Dome, and travelling to the States to Rancho Mirage.....

That's a bit off Rhun.

Their rivalry started when they were at Brit title level (2000). Witter may not have a huge fanbase but do fighters like Lazcano? As you said Hatton fills out the City of Manchester stadium - it doesn't/didn't matter who's in the other corner. The only justifiable fighters Hatton fought that were better, more "deserving" than Witter were Tszyu, Castillo, Mayweather and Pac.

He ducked Witter bad.

I think Witter will take this one. He is a really awkward fighter and if he is on top of his game will take a UD for me.

yep Hatton could have fought Witter many times but fought less guys instead, also Witter would have fought for next to nothing just to get the fight so Hatton would have made huge money in a fight that would have been huge in Britian. fact is if any other fighter had ducked a guy like that they would have been slated, but because everyone loved Hatton they bought his bullshit excuses...

Really like alexanders chances in this one and think he`ll take a decision over a faded witter in a horrible 12 round contest

thankfully the night will be saved by a very good main event
