Should Ricky Hatton have been thrown in the mix earlier

[HattonTheHammer]

Was Hatton given a title shot to late in his career by Frank Warren ? Always felt that he could have had championship matches against the likes of Judah and Cotto way before the Tsysu fight was made ?

Possibly

But only by a year or so.

And if hatton hadnt of had those tussles with phillips, tackie etc would he of been able to take Tszyu to war like he did??

I remember a few post-fight interviews towards the end of Hatton's association with Frank Warren where Hatton was clearly pissed off with the lack of movement in his career, the wide-boy was always stop next to him with a bag full of excuses.

I remember those as well

Hatton would plead with the bigger names to get in with him while warren seemed more than happy to play the whole "learning curve" routine while raking in the dough selling out arenas all over britain for no risk fights!!
