Ok, before world war three breaks out, Witter called hatton out to his face, hatton was seriously intimidated, people should go to you tube and put a search on 'hatton ducking' and watch the video before they comment, because he obviously doesnt want it with witter.

This video basically summarizes how hatton's been ducking Witter for the last 7 years. I like hatton but you have to look at this from the point of view for Witter: its truley unfair for him. He is being denied the big payday and spotlight recognition. Hatton should do the honorable thing and fight him even if he thinks he is gonna lose.

For the me answer is Ricky Hatton NO DOUBT, People would try to make excuse like "He just fought the best fighter in the world" but that has nothing to do with the fact that he openly claim he doesnt want to fight Witter because "He disrespect me" and some dumb fans actually take that as a valid excuse!!!
Hatton was stared cleared of Witter from day one, SKYSPORTS hyped up the fight thinking Team Hatton would tak the fight but they run from the fight like the plague, He fought bums between 2000-2004 when everyone was asking him when are you going to take care of your major domestic rival, He kept saying he had Witter's name in his contract but what happen??? After he beat Tsyzu he kept saying Witter hasnt beating anyone then it was because he doesnt have any fan, Then it was because he doesnt have any belt, Then because he doesnt want to give him a payday,Next was because he verbally disrespect me....He even ask a solicitor(Lawyer to American) to issue a press release that he would never fight him if he keeps bringing up his name..If that doesnt qualify has ducking then i dont know what it is.

Personally i think witter has got into his head, you can see it in the video before hatton was world class name, witter was sowing the seeds of doubt in his mind, there is another video of witter calling him out to his face, because witter's called him out face to face on more than one occasion. There is a part where witter looks him in the face and says

"I have what it takes, You think you're good, you are good, your'e not good enough"

It looked like that got to hatton a little imo.

It did get to Hatton in my opinion,He had doubt in his mind and i think he still does.

I think the fight will happen at some point, economics says it has to. Given Ricky's dislike of Witter, its likely to be later rather than sooner - I reckon he'll have a pop at Paulie first.

If Witter really wants him that bad, he should openly declare he'll take a 30-40% share of the purse, this would lessen the 'biggest payday' argument that Hatton puts forward and if Witter wins, he can make more money with Hatton as a scalp.

It would be a real shame for boxing if the fight didn't go ahead.

Witter already said he would accept Hatton to fight him on a Winner-takes it all purse, He said graham said Hatton would punish him "Let have a winner takes it all that way Hatton can punish me without me getting paid if he thinks he would beat me" But all we kept hearing his Hatton saying he doesnt want to give Witter a payday, So why not a Winner takes it all.

Cheers for that info, on that basis, I would say that Hatton will be forced to take him on if Witter keeps winning;ducking would be more of a blemish to his career than the loss to Mayweather. How do you see the fight going in your opinion??
