Why wont Hatton fight Witter? VOTE NOW!!!

[GAME]

I like Hatton so I feel abit guilty for voting the 1st ioption of "scared to fight " but lets face the facts . He is avoiding this fight at all costs .

Boxing is about beating rivals and throughout Hattons career Junior has been his main rival . Lets just see the fu**in fight Ricky . Stop moaning etc . Its a tough game and if you lose you lose . What does Junior have to do .

If it doesnt happen then people will just think Hatton was the one who ran cuz Witter kept publicly calling him out . Everyone can think what they want but to me its obvious .

The debates shifting in Witters favour now . Whereas before he was just an irritant , now people are taking his side and wana make it happen . The way I see it Ricky has nowhere to run and if he doesnt step up to the plate and be man then he will lose alot of credibility .

[Drama]

Hatton is avoiding Witter.

It'sok to lose to Floyd or Tzyu But when he loses to Witter his career is over.

Where's the "He's a fucking coward" option at?

Where's the "He's a fucking coward" option at?

Hatton is a coward for avoiding Witter in the same way that Bernard Hopkins is a coward for bottling the Calzaghe fight he'd previously agreed to a few years ago. Managing your career to make as much money as you can isn't cowardly. If there were no better money-making options available to Hatton than Witter, he'd take the fight. He may end up in a situation in the future where he takes the fight, we don't know. But calling him cowardly is just silly. Constantly denigrating foreign fighters to try and get reactions on a messageboard is also very silly, although if I also was an unemployable misfit living in my mother's basement I'd need something to fill my day in too.

So that would make Calzaghe a coward for punking out 3 times against Glen Johnson.

Back to the subject at hand. There's no good reason why Hatton doesn't fight Witter. Besides fear. Let me break this down for you so you can understand. I'm not going to use any decent size words cuz I know they confuse you. Hatton has said he will not give Witter a big payday. Is the money coming out his pocket or something? No it's not. So who gives a fuck what the promoters pay Witter. Not only that Witter has said he will take the small purse to fight Hatton. So Hatton's money excuse is just that. An excuse. Another thing is Hatton wants Witter to become more known. He's already the number 2 140 pounder. He's not going to get more known. If this fight happens it takes place in the UK. Not the US. In the UK both have there fans.

You know what? Now that I think about it, I can see Hatton fighting Witter in the future. Maybe a year or two from now. Since Witter is 33. In a couple of years he will be 35, 36. He won't be as fast. And his reflexes will be slower. By than I wouldn't be surprise to see Hatton jump at the chance to fight him. His whole career has been pattern that way. Come on now. Hatton might have you and his other groupies fool. But not me. Fighting fighters that are past there best is what Hatton is all about.

[SweetPea]

I'd say it's a combination of a bunch of different factors.

Witter has a very difficult and awkard style, he's not a huge name so he wouldn't bring a huge payday, Hatton probably doesn't want to give in and let Witter bait him into a fight, etc.

It's ridiculous to suggest Calzaghe would be troubled by somebody on the same level as Clinton Woods. Calzaghe is in a class far above guys like that, as will be shown when he beats your boy Hopkins like a gong in April. If you can't appreciate Calzaghe, you don't have a clue about boxing.

As far as Hatton picking and timing his fights, you do follow the fight business don't you? That's what every fighter does. They trade on their last win or their big support or reputation gained by beating a name guy just past his best or the various other things that press the buttons of the fight public to secure the most lucrative future options for themselves. You having this obsessive need to single out foreign fighters to criticise for something boxers have done since the advent of professional boxing says more about your particular curious mental state than it does about any boxer you may be denigrating.

And with that, the weekend beckons. Enjoy whatever exciting stuff you've got lined up over the next couple of days.

Maybe once or twice it's acceptable for a fighter to fight a past his prime fighter. But Hatton takes it to another level. Nobody fights as many old fighters as Hatton. All his biggest wins have been against fighters past there best. When he fights fighters in there prime he gets his ass whipped (Mayweather, Collazo). So I would not be shocked if Hatton waits for Witter to get older before he fights him. He's been doing it his whole career.

CC#915 VD we agree on most subjects.

[Rican]

I do not buy the argument that states Hatton dislikes Witter, therefore he will not allow him to have a pay day. This is the most absurd reasoning I have ever heard in boxing. First, if you dislike someone in boxing, it is more of an impetus to get that person in the ring. Second, if you are going to get paid while fighting someone you dislike, that is another impetus to get someone in the ring. So why doesn't Hatton make that fight happen? The only logical conclusion is that Hatton is afraid of losing to Witter, a legitimate threat. If Witter wasn't a legitimate threat, Hatton would take the money and run as anyone would. Hatton has too much to lose in a fight with Witter and I think his confidence level has been shaken a bit due to his loss to Floyd.

[Tysonbruno]

If Hatton fights Witter and loses how bad will that be for him after Witter has been calling him out for 8 years now.

Once or twice? How about Joe Louis's bum-of-the-month club? It's hard to find a champion who hasn't had endless tomato cans on his record. Oscar fought a lot of top guys back in his prime, but up until last year the boxing game was full of champions takingeasy matches. Again, you singling out certain people to criticise about doing it says far more about you than it does about them. Especially after Hatton just moved up a weight to fight the pound for pound number one in the city he lives in.
