Witter is not merely ranked but is a champion. He is ranked number one by The Ring, so why is that not enough to "corner" Hatton? He is universally recognised as the best opponent Hatton could face but still some think he needs to do more than that to be considered "worthy" of facing him. Hatton wasn't made to jump through nearly so many hoops and was never told he wouldn't EVER be faced due a personal dislike. If he had by either Tszyu or Mayweather, would we condone it?

i personally dont like the way Witter has constantly tried to jump on Hatton gravy train ,Witter is not merely ranked but is a champion.

First of all, The only excitement Hatton generated in the Floyd-Hatton fight consisted in eating a left hook and slamming his own self into a turnbuckle. 2 million PPV buys had more to do with 24/7, media hype, and dare I say Floyd Mayweather than it had to do with Ricky Hatton. Hatton played the role of "can du jour" perfectly, but really, he's not all that. If you believe otherwise then you just have to wait and see when the Malignaggi - Hatton PPV numbers come in. 24/7 sells, but His 24/7 and 2 million PPV ended crashing into a ringpost. Those days are over for the Hitman.Because Hatton can bring enough excitement to generate over 2 million PPV buys in the States and UK combined and sell out any stadium. If Witter could offer the type of payday that Hatton did for Floyd, the he could dictate who he fights.
Witter is a nobody who looks worse than Froch calling out Calzaghe and also accusing him of ducking.Comment

yeah thats what Floyd did with Margo. on top of turning down a career payday.Comment

Man, you come on here and say some of the most riduculous things. Hatton did beat the best at JWW. Costya Tyszu. Period, therefore -Hatton is the best JWW. Witter only says this stuff to get some type of recognition from boxing worldwide, otherwise nobody knows who he is. If you had the chance to fight for 10 million or 1 million, what would you do. Answer that question to yourself and then my response to that is , "sure you would, because it makes sense for you and your family". And, the part about persacution, is the most off point thing he could have said. What african (black) originated boxer has been been done wrong in boxing since the days of Muhamad Ali? The answer is none.The fruits of boxing starts there and ends with white kids who were thought to never have a chance and are presumed to be all hype. So Im not sure how that wannabe star could say that. Hatton has already beat him by not fighting him and thats why he talks so much crap. Besides, Ricky would KO him fairly easy. He is no Floyd (lil money) Mayweather.(Delahoya is the real "MONEY".)Comment

nah bro Witter has a pretty good chance I think. yeah Hatton beat Zoo,. but as long as he is claiming to be the best 140lber he needs to CONTINUE to clean out the division. the MONEY fight was understandaBLE.Man, you come on here and say some of the most riduculous things.

Thank god someone with a boxing brain..I totally agree, I have alway said he can fight the big names for more money but if he chooses to fight more bums at 140 then people have to see him for for he is.nah bro Witter has a pretty good chance I think. yeah Hatton beat Zoo,. but as long as he is claiming to be the best 140lber he needs to CONTINUE to clean out the division. the MONEY fight was understandaBLE.

yeah but what BUMS at 140? Mausa was coming off a KO title win againt Harris. Uraungo was an undefeated prospect and Castillo was well Castillo..
I actually picked Castillo to stop Hatton late.Comment

hatton really has to fight witter after recent events.
fair enough witter uses hattons name as a stepping stone ( just like froch trying to link himself to calzaghe as much as possible in every bit of coverage he gets), but its boxing and 'bad mouthing'is part of the territory.
Witter would have a good chance of beating hatton, and thats not just a result of looking at rankings, just look at his style.Comment

Pedersen,Carlos rios, Mike "The joke" Stewart the list was endless on the WBU list, Urango a prospect? I hope you saw his fight with Beh rabah..What a prospect...Carlos maussa according to Billy graham was a "Joke who we dont want to have anything to do with" LIVE on skysports and sorry Castillo was gone mate.
None of them present a proper challenge to hatton at 140 and the fact that Hatton was the overwhelming favourite going into those fights proves it.Comment
