The notion that he owes it to anyone to fight a guy like Witter who would give him a pathetic payday even in England is silly. Hard core boxing fans (and I include myself in this group) have entirely unrealistic expectations in terms of the types of fights that should happen.
Stop trying to justify Hatton's cowardliness.
Maybe you project stuff onto foreign fighters from your own personality in order to make you feel better about yourself. Or maybe it's the differences between foreign fighters and yourself that set you off like this? For instance, Joe Calzaghe is a good-looking winner. Maybe that's why you're like this?
