Witter: "Hatton Will Retire After Mayweather"

[niceguy45]

witter needs to shut his pie whole and concentrate on harris,
the same happened to miranda talking **** about taylor, then pavlik knocked his ass, it will be funny if harris wins, he wont knock him out but will win a decision

[bdevils]

Okay then, De La Hoya is 34 and has fought three times in three years.

But Floyd stepped up in weight and gave into every demand to get that fight. I'm not taking anything away from Hatton for his win over Kostya there was just a huge difference from when Zab fought him and when Hatton fought him. Hatton might of beaten Kostya before the layoff and injuries but then again he might not of.

Okay then, De La Hoya is 34 and has fought three times in three years.

And that 34 year old Oscar would beat the snot out of Ricky Hatton.

True Story.

True Story.

Of course Oscar would and Floyd likely will.

But Judah and Witter are ****, Hatton could destroy either of them. And I'm not Hatton fan, I'm just facing facts. Witter is a nobody, Judah is a heartless choker. Hatton at least is a champion, an entertainer, and a clutch performer.

Why do people insist on Judah having been better than we've learned? Failure to adapt from expectation to what time proves? The world was wrong about him. Next you're gonna tell me Mike Vick was really once a great quarterback, that Americans dominate basketball, that Rod**** is a great tennis player, though history has indisputably proved otherwise in each case.

First, Americans DO dominate basketball. Let's clear that straightaway. If the USA gets all its best players, and they practice together, they will SCRUB any national team. That was demonstrated in 1992. Don't let a bronze medal in the last O's fool you.

Judah is good competition. And if he is not, then why is Miguel Cotto highly-regarded?

My point was that if Hatton was fighting that quality of opposition in his early years, we have no idea what his record would be, and I would bet my next mortgage payment that he'd have a loss. Or two.

Judah, Cotto, lazcano, castillo, casamayor, corrales, freitas, corley, witter, mayweather, gatti, ndou, Harris, malignaggi, mitchell, etc represents the lion's share of the elite at 135/140 over the past decade. True or not?

Somehow, we didn't see Hatton in with ANY of them.

Fifteen years ago Americans dominated basketball, but seven years of losing doesn't lie. American sports are falling apart, the demise of American basketball is just following baseball and boxing.

Corely? Gatti? N'Dou? Freitas? C'mon man these are third-tier fighters none of them had a chance with Hatton. He fought Castillo, Tzsyu, and now Mayweather, stop being an unreasonable hater. No one on your list is as good as Hatton

Casa is irrelevant as he's in a lower division and hasn't moved up. Judah is not in the same league as Hatton. That's no praise of Hatton, Judah is **** and folds against good competition. Why can't Floyd fans accept this. I credit Mayweather for a brilliant win against DLH, but just b/c Judah also fought Mayweather, and happens to be an illiterate ****** poser who meets a certain stereotype, doesn't mean we have to argue against the facts that he was ever an elite fighter. He could only handle certain styles anyway (Spinks, to some extent PBF), but anyone coming forward with balls kills him. Even if they're slow and relatively unskilled like Baldomir.

Yes!!.. Please continue. Because you clearly haven't made the point you intended.

1) You Hatton groupies MUST stop buying into the myth of Ricky's footspeed. This 'Ricky is so fast' worship will be exposed in , um, 3 months. And 1 day. We will see exactly how fast Ricky is.

2) Hatton struggled mightily and was hurt by another southpaw who has aproximately 1/16 of the punching power as Judah.

3) Judah faced a PRIME Tszyu. Hatton faced a 36 yr old Tszyu at 2am in his own building. That is NOT a "common opponent".

4) saying that "hatton has beaten HoFers" is like saying that Oscar beat HoFers. Yeah. hatton beat "a nanme". But WHEN did he do it? Oscar beat Whitaker, Camacho and Chavez. but WHEN did he do it? I can go kick Muhammad Ali's ass right now. So what?

5) You say that Hatton "gets stronger" as the fight goes along. Yet. I saw him finish the Collazo fight on fumes - almost getting KO'd, and the second half of the Urango fight was nearly unwatchable. PLEASE EXPLAIN. In fact, I think I know where to find a round on video from the Urango fight.

6) Ricky was being out-sped by a mid-pack Welterweight.

7) Hatton "always finds a way to win". We'll re-visit this topic on Dec 9th.

8) Judah has fought great bodypunchers: Micky Ward, Floyd Mayweather and Miguel Cotto. IMO, Cotto is a FAR stronger puncher than Hatton.

Shall I continue?

1. ricky's footwork is under estimated. his had speed is under estimated by a lot too.

2. he did struggled with a southpaw who gave mosley a decent fight. it was his first step up to someone who held a belt. it wasnt perfect but he won a close decision. his trainers felt he lost a lot of speed going up weight thus this time they plan to keep him at the same weight as he fights at 140. speed matters the way hatton fights or any fighter infact.

judah does have power, but he would not last 12 whole rounds with ricky at the pace he has in the early rounds.

3. judah did fight a prime kostya who made him dance. was funny as hell.

hatton travels to america where the time difference is not the same as in manchester. your point? 2 am? well many fights are at different times across the world depending on the networks showing it. a pro boxer will then make sure they are acustomed to the time zone and the fight time.

4. kosta and castillo are hall of famers but past their prime. although how many thought hatton would beat them? not many...

5. against urango hatton had a cold which does affect you. it sounds little but in a fight your breathing and body is affected. having a cold makes you feel physically weaker.

hatton didnt plan to fight collazo. he was suppose to fight someone else until they pulled out. with 7 weeks that they had before the fihgt they werent prepared enough. i dont think 7 weeks is good enough time to understand how you fight with 7 pounds more. yeah he did nearly lose. very close fight.

6. i believe that he lost his speed due to the weight he tried to put on which was moslt likely more than 147 at fight night. i have seen some fighter lose their speed going up in weight.

7. hatton has a much more better chance to beat judah for sure compared to beating mayweather. hatton wins by having heart. mayweather wins by boxing skillfully. i enjoy hatton more than mayweather or "recent" mayweather.

8. he lost to floyld and cotto... who also have body punches. so does ricky... micky ward isnt that great a boxer... didnt really understand your point. it didnt help you at all son.

shall i continue?
