Barry McGuigan on Hatton's condition against Collazo, etc

[GEOFFHAYES]

Why fight Collazo then? He's not exactly a toe-to-toe fighter...

Ask HBO...

[iron mike tyson]

Finally, someone smart enough to realize Hatton lost to Collazo. When is he going to stop running from Witter and Vivian Harris?

what has junior witter ever brought to the table other than the fact he was european champion when hatton was a world title contendor?
and as for harris pfft hes ducked hatton for years

Yeah, Harris should have taken the offer he got a few years back but he's now one of the best of what's left at 140. Why fight Urango over Witter? Witter is a bigger name in the US than Urango if that tells you anything...

are you that biased when talking about hatton that you forget about the facts?
hatton had no choice than to fight collazo
hbo had no more dates in the distant future and only saw collazo has a good enough fighter for ricky to make hes debut against

[GEOFFHAYES]

I'd LOVE to see Hatton-Witter and Hatton-Mayweather, but I don't think either will happen..

witter-hatton has got more possibility of happening and i see a vicous ko coming from hatton inside 7 rounds
hattons got the style to give junior nightmares and i dont witter can fight on the back foot

Ricky had his choice of opponents of acceptable opponents and they thought Collazo would be the easiest of the titleholders...

Why would Hatton fight Vivian Harris? Carlos Maussa knocked out Harris in the 7th round to win the WBA title. Maussa fought Hatton in the next fight and was knocked out in the 9th round.

i think youl find that the list of fighters ricky had to choose from was as follows
ben rabah noufal
juan lazcano
luis collazo
and i think soulaymaine mbaye was one
rabah and mbaye was rejected by hbo , thus leaving rickys camp to choose the only 140 option left. 7 weeks before the fight lazacano breaks hes hand and pulls out. team hatton asks to fight hes mandatory for hes ibf (rabah) they declien thus leaving him with collazo
get your ****ing facts straight *******

[iron mike tyson]

also urango has got rickys ibf belt , the same belt he beat the great kostya tszyu into submision to win

[Abe Attell]

If Hatton stays at 140, he will eventually have to face Whitter and Vivian Harris because there is really nobody else.

Castillo is next, so I am looking forward to that fight.

I would of liked him to move up to face Cotto, Mayweather, and Mosley...these fights are much better for boxing, money, and Legacy.

[GEOFFHAYES]

Hatton's camp are in talks with Cotto's camp for a proposed fight at MSG this time next year, right now.
