    Because Lacanzo is a ranked opponent and a good name after coming off a crushing first loss via knockout, Hatton needs to build his confidence up and get that winning mentality back.

    But according to you and Hatton's people Witter is not that good. And he's ranked higher than Lazcano. So why not fight him?

    Because Hatton is coming of a crushing KO loss and Witter is full of confidence.

    Ever heard the saying a confident fighter is a dangerous one??


    Hatton WILL fight Witter, he just needs to regroup after the loss.

    But Hatton says he wont fight Witter . If he said " someday I'll fight him " people would get off his back but it looks like Hattons waiting to get beat again then retire having never met his locak rival

    Names like Floyd , Pac , Diaz etc are mentioned and that Hattons excuse so why is he mentioning Lazcano ? Witter would be a better fight .

    Another thought: Hatton has been spoiled financially his whole professional career. He just made mega millions in a fight with the number one fighter on the planet. He is not short of a quid and could walk away today with no cares for the rest of his life.

    Where is he going to find the motivation from? We know he likes a bevvy...

    Hatton has the ability to rule 140 for a while, but does he have the desire?

    After Tszyu lost to Vince Phillips he was ordered to pay his old promoter nearly $4 million - at that stage I'm guessing Tszyu's best purse would have been around $250000.

    My point is that after defeat Tszyu put his head down, bum up and WORKED FUCKING HARD, if not for the glory then at least for the coin - he needed it.

    Can and will Hatton do the same?

    Hatton said "I'll fight him when I want to", that means he'll fight him when his confidence, motivation and desire is back.

    Floyd Mayweather said "I ain't calling out any welterweights" now that is someone that is scared to fuck.

    Every fighter is confident. If there not than they shouldn't be fighters. Hatton needs to fight Witter. He don't need to fight Lazcano. Jermain Taylor got knocked out pretty bad. What did he do? He went right back at Pavlik. He didn't take no tune-up. Plenty of guys get knocked out and take big fights right away. I guess Hatton ain't one of them. Fucking coward

    Every single press release the Hatton camp makes about Witter puts me more off him. Used to really like Ricky, but they're just taking the piss. They say there's no interest in a Witter fight, yet they feel they have to reply to his challenges every other day. I see no other threads mentioning another fighter Ricky SHOULD fight..

    The Hatton camp go out of their way to portray him to the public as a down to earth guy who hadn't changed with fame, yet they come out with comments saying that a champion in his own weight division isn't worth 30% . They think they'ra damaging Witter's bank account when all they're damaging in reality is Haton's diminshing credibility.

    Talking Re: Hatton is Definitely Avoiding Witter

    You have to still give the up most respect to the Hitman,after all he fought the best pound to pound fighter on the planet in december last year,not to mention the four fight contract he signed for with HBO a year ago.He signed and he DELIVERED on them terms did'nt he?!!How many fighters this day in age have fought four straight fights away from home turf and achieved 100% credibility from fans not only in the u.k but world wide,or have u forgotten about that?I'd like to see a match up with Hatton Vs Witter.It would be the most anticipated domestic fights after the major one with MACCARINELLI Vs HAYE is over and done with.Just give Hatton time to regroup and i'll asure you the fight will be pulled off sooner than you think.IT WILL HAPPEN just have more patients.

    Lee calm down mate , I dont feel Mayweather need to fight again but if he does then Cotto is the fight for him , As for Ricky i think after his next fight and providing Witter keeps on winning then they have to make the fight , as i have said in another post only Ricky knows if hes ducking Witter , but even as a Ricky fan and a Witter Hater , it does look to me like Hattons reasons for not fighting Witter are wearing a bit thin.
    Thats just my opinion.
