amidst more talk of Hatton-Mayweather II
you can't blame Hatton for wanting the rematch in front of a huge crowd at Wembley, but he should have to earn it by beating Malignaggi and Witter. Floyd should deal with Cotto first aswell.
I don't even rule out De La Hoya wanting a slice of this action and saying he'll fight Hatton in the UK.
Harris got spanked by Mongol boy and has beaten who since?
You telling me Witter beat him at his best and in a really exciting fashion?
well Juan Lazcano for one!!!
Witter comprehensively beat him and scored a clean ko. I don't agree with others saying Hatton is a boring fighter though, he's far from it but I don't think he can keep belittling Witter just because of his style.

LOL hug n hold hatton claiming witter is a boring fighter. what an idiot. witter is by far the more interesting and exciting fighter to watch. he has a style like no other fighter in the world. u gotta like that unorthodox switch hittin style.
The only time Hatton will fight Witter is if by some freak event Lazcano beats Hatton....it'd practically be career over then for Hatton he'd bite Witter's hand off for a final big match. But no, Hatton will twat Lazcano and then roll on to Mayweather at Wembley. I'm not totally against Hatton v Mayweather 2, I just wish Mayweather would fight Cotto first and Hatton fight Witter.
Hatton lost at 147 and prior to that 1 fight was Top dog at 140.
What does he need to prove?
That he can defeat a guy with no-one on his resume like Witter?
Who has Witter beaten?
And have you seen his fights?
Especially Colin Lynes and Kotelnik who are at most Euro level.
No offence but Witter should have concentratd on his own carrer rather than stalking Hatton like a bum wanting change.
Hatton went to the USA while Witter fought D-level opposition and gaining his "KO Streak".
Tyrone Brunson has a KO streak for fuck sake.
I couldn't agree more, i'm not sure how so many people have jumped on this witter bandwagon. That the hatton - witter fight must happen! I just want it to happen so people will shut up.
I don't think you can label Vivian Harris a 'bum' or 'D-level opponent'. Lazcano maybe you could. I've seen most of Witter's recent fights and I used not to think this way, but for me his performance against Harris gives legitimacy to him calling out Hatton.
If you have ever seen a Witter fight you would agree with Hatton.
The guy (Witter) switch hits without any real impact and falls asleep after 5-6 rounds if he isn't fighting a guy who wants to play lay down for Junior.
Hatton: Junior who????
lol
It's not about that though, it's about fighting the best. I don't blame Hatton for going for a rematch, but he shouldn't be getting the opportunity until he's proved again hes best at 140.
