Wish i had your optomisim mate but i dont think this fight will ever happen now and there is no better time than the present IMO so if it aint happening now it will not be happening in the future... one of them will prob get beat withing the next 12 months and we'll be left arguing over Khans lack of challanges
just one question for you mate who would you like to see Ricky fight next Lazcano or Witter i dont need an answer its for your own mind![]()
Witter. I'd absolutely love it.
IMO if Witter show's up, he could win.
Listen, my whole basis of argument isn't on the fact that the fight shouldn't happen (it absolutely should, no question)
My point is, there is a reason Witter hasn't made an offer yet and there's a reason why Hatton appears disinterested.
You'll see in 2009....
The fight will be a massive occassion......even bigger than it would be now with the way things are going.
Witter will get Hatton when his popularity is back at it's peak (if all goes according to plan he will beat Lazcano and Paulie...which he should)
Witter will then get his massive payday because he'll most likely still hold the WBC belt after fighting mandatories until next year
Hatton will get his opponent when he is 35 years old which seems to be the pattern he likes to follow.
So is Hatton retiring soon then? Didn't know that.
Also, when did this Witter craze start? I've been on this board for a while but never have I seen more then a passing call for Hatton to fight Witter. Now a couple months after a fairly good showing of himself versus the best fighter in the world, the calls are almost overwhelming.
Witter may have earned his shot but this all just kind of came out of nowhere. At least it did to me.
mate i sead this a few days ago and if the fight was gonna happen why dont they just stick Witter vs Paulie on the undercard of hatton vs payday and then Ricky fights the winner simple to me if the fight was gonna happen also see reply below to hatton retireing.
yeah about 2 days before his loss to mayweather i read an article about Rickys mum saying he made a promise to herehe was retiring the end of this year but he lost that fight so i'm not sure if that promise still holds... but he is at the tale end of his career so Lazcano is a wasted fight to me.
i think we will see lazcano, paulie and if i maywether fight dont happen i think he might just keep his promise and leave on a win ((if he wins of course))
as for all the Witter Hatton threads mate its because Ricky has a loyal following and Witter calls him out nearly everyday just seems to be the topic of debate recently![]()

It would seem logical but i believe Hatton figures he can make more money fighting Paulie and Junior, because with Paulie he gets to fight at the Garden.
The Witter fight will most likely be at Wembley.
correct so why not now Witter's profile is high and to be honest i think Hattons is at an all time high.... his last fight in the UK was the the maussa fight and i heard they hade to gave tickets away as the numbers where low.. but this lazcano fight is almost a sellout.
so for me 12 months even if it did happen would be too late and i doubt it will anyways but Ricky is a millionaire now so surlly he should be looking for fights because they are fights but we both agree he is after money now...
although you think its a masterplan i dont
anyhooo night mate and to be honest i hope your right and i'm wrong as it would be a shame if these guys never met not just for the fans i think Ricky would regret it in years to come![]()
