What are the view on Junior Witter v Ricky Hatton, who would win the battle of Britain?
Witter losing to the AMERICAN. SO IT DOES NOT MATTER
The better question is will Ricky ever fight Witter, I don't think so.

I f they fight Witter wins inside 6 and i will be sick as a chip when it happens as i hate Witter
Witter had better focus on Bradley at the moment.....He's been spouting Hatton for years...& vice versa
Is Rhun Doing a RBR?
If Hatton does not fight Witter it will haunt him for the rest of his days.
When he is fat and old sitting in a pub with his pint of guinnes people are still going to be saying to him why did you duck that Witter guy?
I can think of any reason why this fight can not happen now apart from the fact that Ricky is avoiding it.
Thats from a Hatton fan who spent all my life savings going to Vegas to watch him fight.
Hatton on points.
People seem to forget that before Witter actually look good in a fight(against Harris) he went on a nice little run where he looked absolute shite against mediocre opposition.
Lucky to beat:
Lynes
Kotelnik
N'Dou
On that form he gets beaten up by Hatton
If he shows the form he showed against Harris....he stil loses but it's a closer fight.
For me, Ricky shits all over Witter. I don't really want to watch the fight...
I'm more interested in Hatton-Malignaggi. ;D
If there was a chance before, I think we can now safely say, NEVER GONNA HAPPEN.
it won't happen but if it did, Hatton would win Decision or late stoppage.
After that performance, I would safely say I think Hatton would dominate Witter.
Should have been Hatton!!!!!!!!!
I am still laughing now. All of the idiots on here preaching about how Hatton was avoiding him lmao. Some people must feel a bit stupid ;D
Even more silly would be the people that would take this fight and use it to gouge how he would do against Hatton when Bradley and Hatton's styles couldn't be further apart.
Not saying there's anything wrong with that but from what ive seen Bradley is a boxer puncher who likes to use his jab and counter shots.
The kind of style that could give Witter issues.
Hatton is a brawl and maul type of style in your face that wouldn't be looking to jab or counter Witter and ultimately would be an easier style for Witter to fight.
I love how his fans don't act like Hatton didn't just get knocked outtoo. But go figure. Hatton got stopped they said Witter would destroy Hatton, Witter gets beaten and not they say Hatton would destroy him. Go figure.
I'll see this fight later.
Forget that Another OVERRATED ENGLISH FIGHTER LOSES WITTER DONE!
Witter isnt overrated mate. I didnt rate him that highly tbh at all.
Id say just about right, hes a decent fighter with a tricky style but not a great fighter.
In the end it was the decent experienced tricky styled fighter who got beat by the tough, young up n coming good fighter.
Notice i said decent for witter (thats what ive always believed hin to be, a 'decent' fighter)...but said 'good fighter' for bradley, because 'good' is just above decent, puts him slightly above witter which is where he is.
Very good would be someone like hatton or taylor.
Great would be like calzaghe, mayweather or pacquaiu.
Witter is a 'decent fighter' nothing more, nothing less. Its his tricky style that has helped him in the past.
I think hatton vs bradley would be a cracker of a fight, would love to see that.
Hatton was avoiding Witter. If anyone should feel a bit stupid about tonight's fight it's Hatton himself. It should have been him in there absolutely sparking Witter.
He would have made a lot more money beating up Witter that he would have beating up Juan Lazcano:rolleyes:
Hatton by TKO with the REF saving Witter in round 5
ahh man; I HATE Hatton's fans. HATE THEM!!!!
Hatton is a pressure fighter with a lot of power at 140 to compliment his skills, expierience and fspeed.
Witter lost to a pressure fighter last night.
witter predominently struggles against in your face style boxers just like the one he came up against last night.
Bradleys game plan was simple yet so effective - dont bother trading at arms length, muscle your way inside and work away. By round 6-7 witter was struggling desperately with his style and was forced to open himself up more in order to counter bradleys stance which ultimately led to the knockdown.
This would be just the same if not worse if witter ever fought ricky. Hatton would have him blowing steam within 4 and knock him out within 8.
I said this before last night and i feel more assured as ever that witter wouldnt have a hope in hell of beating hatton....
unless Mr Cortez was the ref ;D;D
I think the people who are saying 'Yeah so what? Ricky got beat aswell' need to remember just who he lost to. There's a big difference from losing to the current p4p king and often percieved best of all time, than losing to a young, unexperienced fighter.
Witter has made his career off slagging Hatton off, he's constantly told the crowd "I'd destroy hatton, i'm the best light welter in the world" and thats exactly why Hatton wouldn't give him a shot, Hatton told him to prove he was the best, and look where Witter is now. Witter is a fraud.
Come on....
Hatton got ko'd by Floyd Mayweather. Counter punching is just one of his many abilities.
Witter's counter-punching skills have looked extremely questionable against all of the decent fighters he has fought.
Lynes, Kotelnik, N'Dou, Judah etc...and Bradley last night.
