Hell No!

I think ricky's camp does not like that fight stylisticly. Not that Ricky cannot win but that there is a chance that against Witter he may not look good and may face a defeat. and for the littel money that such a risky fight would generate, I don't see it happening. ANd of course his people can fall back on the idea that Witter is disrespectful and that he just lost a fight so I don't think he will face any more pressure from the public about it.

witter ko's hatton even on a terrible night. hatton knows it, it will never happen.

witter had an off-night and paid for it big against bradley. but even then bradley just about won it and he's prob the best out there right now. no one beats witter at his best at 140 imo.

No chance now.
Witter will always have lost the fight to hatton. 2 big 2 strong.

I dont get all the backlash. If someone was basically spending everyday calling you a c**t etc why would you want to fight them to make them secure for the rest of their lives. Witter saying he would fight for free was bollocks.

This is old ****ing news dude! Witter blew it when he proved he wasn't in same class by losing to a B/C Class mandatory contender. He was on national terrestrial TV, and free TV (I think it was ITV1) and it was his chance to shine and stake a claim in the Fatton machine. He blew it big time! He didn't just lose he looked absolutely ****e! I think he **** his pants a bit knmowing it was his chance. In essence that would have been an eliminator for fatty's linear title. if junior looked good he could have said come on you Fat bum and called him out in front of nation. He also made the tabloids before the fight, as 'bitter witter'. He's finished now. Fatty don't need that ****.

Totally agree not know seen as there is no belt & i personally would rather watch paint dry than witter he doesn't sell tickets his PPV.

What your opinion of Hatton V Paulie or anybodys opinion

I'm not really a Hatton fan but I think Hatton wins it fairly comfortably. Malignaggi is feather fisted and doesn't have enough power to worry Hatton. Plus he has Mayweather Sr. training him now so i think he will look a lot better than he did than his last fight.

Witter blew it, but this fight would still be huge domestically and a pretty evenly matched fight IMO. well put it this way, I think Witter can give him more troubles than Paulie. he has more power.

Witter defo blew it with the Bradley fight but also didn't team Hatton offer him the biggest pay day of his career and he turned it down?

I don't think so, unless Team Hatton were taking the piss with that payday. Even his biggest payday can be less than a million which would be minimum of what he deserves.

i got some good reliable inside info from my promoter who has contacts with chiennes Anglais about witters state of mind going into his last fight. Apparently his dad just died and his wife left him and was also trying to rag him for every last penny he made. I doubt he is anywhere near a millionaire as is such a boring fighter who can't draw crowds. Poor sod.

That personnal **** is serious man. if that was me i would refuse to go to my day job. It is one of those were both camps say he offerd me this and that and the othe rsay he never offerd me that. that is why boxing is on the decline at the moment imo. either way a prime hatton beats a prime witter.

Yeah. But Witter would give him problems and maybe bore him to death. hatton would be on him like a dog and probably win it. If Witter can get his title back in time, then fatty should give him his shot as they are the two best in the CUNTry.

Rumor has it thaT Witter overtrained for his fight with Bradley. Well that's what he said after the fight and in an interview a month or two later. I believe Witter would KO Hatton and I hope he get's a rematch with Zab and Bradley, Zab has moved back down to 140 and Bradley is having trouble finding viable opponents(Edner Cherry? come on now).

He might give him problems mate but almost every fighter Hatton as fought as gave him problems. This fight will nver happen for a simple reason Witter is not a well known fighter. he could'nt sell out an arena for a world championship fight against an un-named fighter. The is no money in it for Hatton and nothing for him to gain if he beats him. If Hatton beats him it will be classed as an "easy" fight for Hatton in our Cuntry.

That is simply not true. This fight could easily be promoted asa huge domestic match up. Witter is kinda well known and if he won that free TV fight he would have boosted his stock. he was in the back pages as 'bitter witter' so isn't exactly completely unknown. I think it would be a huge money fight and could fill out a footy stadium. Any Hatton fight could, just look at his last one!

I think it would be a good fight too, because like you say Hatton gets troubled quite a bit. Interesting point you make there. Collazo gave him problems too and IMO nearly won and should have been given a rematch which fatty would lose. He looks shot since being spanked by Floyd. Even though Witter has fought in a class or two below, the styles would make good fight.

I know a bit about your country mate coz I went to Halton College in your town when I did a football coaching course at LFC! The written modules and exams were done in that quiet and scary little posh town of yours. I think it is a fight that the public would want, especially the British boxing fraternity. Therefore it MUST go on for the sake of British boxing, IF Witter comes back and gets his title.

As an Englishman I am very proud of the fact that Ricky Hatton has been a World Champion for many, many years (in two different weight divisions as well) and that he made Kostya Tszyu look like an amateur.

I also love him because he does an unbelievably huge amount for charity, unlike some famous people.

However, I am backing Malignaggi to destroy Hatton. Hatton is old now and will never have the longevity of someone like old Calzaghe because he drinks too much beer and eats too many pies. Hatton has not won with ease for a couple of years now.

riera

he didn't make tszyu look like an amateur, he wrestled and did alot of fouls on a 37 year oldman who had a 2 year lay off due to injury. Also, Kostya is class and I am a huge fan, but not an ATG that can beat a prime JC Chavez the way some of the Brits make him out to be. he is slightly overrated by Brits (they need the cred) and even got outclassed in that first round V Judah. Fatton is a bigger joke and beat people only when they were over the hill. **** fatton, I would like to see him get beat by Witter so they can see what a joke the fat bum was.

A typical Liverpool FC fan!

Not from England!

I am not sure why you hate Ricky Hatton so much. He is providing for his family, has never harmed anyone, and he has won many World title fights against the likes of Castillo and Urango.

Okay, he may not be a great fighter but what is with all this ridiculous hate?

**** Witter...**** Him **** Him **** Him Even If He's Celibate....he's One Of My Favourite Boxers But I Can't Stand Him At The Moment...he Has Spent His Whole Life Trynna Get A Fight With Hatton....when Realistically If He Focused More He Coulda Beat Anyone In The Division And Cleaned Up..the Jww Division Is Open And Honestly At His Best Witter Could Beat Anyone In The Division. He Could've Unified The Division And Forced The Fight..tim Bradders Said It Best When He Stated That Witter Was So Focused On Hatton He Ignores The Fighter In Front Of Him (not A Direct Quote, Twas Paraphrased).....

But That's Not The Point....the Hatton Fights Witters Would Fustigate Him....witter Is A Switch Hittin Fast Hand Counter Puncher...hatton Lunges In With Left Hooks...anyone With Decent Timing And Counterin Skills Can Get To Hatton...obviously You Got Pbf Who Exposed Hattons Flaws But Even Against Lazcano Hatton Get Hit With "the Check Hook".

If They Ever Fought The Winner Of The Fight Would Be Determined By Witter Himself...cus He Likes 2 Not Turn Up 2 Big Fights.

You're talking about Fatty as a person, and not the boxer and his bull**** legacy in the sport. i'm not on about the man but the bull**** myth created by silly chiennes Anglais. He epitomises everything wrong with the Brits approach to sport. have you seen how his chavvy fans behave? disgusting!

Lol@Urango and an over the hill Castillo. For a second then you nearly fooled me into thinking he beat someone good in their prime! Did he ****! that is the problem with overrated overhyped British bums. I do like the Hayemaker though, because if anything he has been underrated in comparison. Plus he is not a blanc de porc!

If Ricky loses to Paulie, then the Witter bout becomes a good possibilty IMO. Even a lot of Hatton fans want him to fight Witter now for 2 main reasons:

1. Everyone knows Witter is the No.1 British contender at JWW.
2. They want Hatton to actually prove he's better than Witter instead of making those excuses.

The only problem is that if Hatton does lose to Paulie then he also loses the titles Witter wants but I don't think that should have too much effect on the fight being made A Hatton loss against Paulie could pave the way for a Witter fight. If Hatton beats Paulie, then the chances for a Witter fight are slim because he'll have De La Hoya, Pacman, Marquez, Judah among other name-fighters to choose from.

id like to see bradly v hatton to be honest. Im not completely conviced bradly is that good, i think he was fighting a poor witter that night. Some of the crazy punches bradly was throwing would of been easy for hatton to ko him.

Dude, i don't know what ya laughin at Junior Witter at one point was in the same league as Hatton he was number 1 Light Welterweight, had wins over former world champions Lovemore N'dou who just took Mallinaggi to a split Witter dropped him 3 times and beat him on UD,Andriy Kotelnik on UD who is now WBA champion and ranked 4th in the world now,DeMarcus Corley a former world champion who buckled Cotto and took Zab Judah to a split decision Junior beat him clearly on UD,Vivian Harris a former world champion who had beat the likes of Juan Lazcano the fight beofore Hatton, had a tko win over Steve Johnson, had beat former world champion Souleymane M'baye on UD,and Harris had also went to germany x2 to defeat Oktay Urkal, and Harris had also tko'd Diosbelys Hurtado in 2 Junior knocks him out in 7. And before the Bradley loss Witter's only loss was against a prime Judah at sort notice. So yes Junior Witter was very much in the same league as Hatton at one point and to be onest Hatton didn't want to know. And also calling any boxer **** especailly Junior Witter is disrepectfull as it takes a lot of courage to get in the ring and anyone dserves respect who does.

I really think the bereavement in his family, and his divorce with half his money being snatched away affected his performance when he lost his title. If Witter gets it back quick enough, he can force this fight to happen. his next fight is essentially a WBC eliminator and I think he is fighting for the EBU belt. If he is best in Uk and Europe, that is enough for Fattyu to fight him. Naz gave Manuel Calvo his big chance! :rofl:

He said he'll fight FATTY for free:

Now he can;t say he doesn't want to give him a big payday. What kinda crap is that anyway? Mayweather didn't want the grotesque bum with no boxing skills to get a payday but he did it. Blocking shots with your head is not the sweet science. i wish Junior Witter the [not very hard] Hitter bores the cunt to death [he is a natural cure for insomnia] and then drops in a late KO.
