He was fighting Tszyu as HUGE underdog,so he had everything to gain and nothing to lose. Against Mayweather,he was fighting the best fighter in the world,no shame in losing there. Fighting Witter is different. It's a fight he won't be entering as an underdog. It's a fight he won't be entering with nothing to lose. I think that's a legitimate reasons why he does not want to fight Witter.

I'm not defending who Witter has fought at all but I don't understand Hatton's logic in not fighting him at some point.
