    Before i really didnt understand why they would avoid the fight but then i started studying hatton's opponent and they all have one thing in common ( They were all slow pace fighter) while hatton is high pace, I have never seen him in the ring with Pure boxers except for the Mayweather fight.

    I think the awkwardness,Power,self belief and pure hunger that Witter would bring scares Team Hatton, I actually see Hatton getting knocked out to be honest.


    Hatton needs to bully you before he can overpower you and i dont think he can do that to Witter who looks strong at 140.

      In that video Hatton talks about how fighting Witter has to be "appealing to the public". Then his next 4 fights were against John Bailey, Freddie Pendelton, Justin Rowsell and Mikhail Krivolapov. Were those fights "appealing to the public"? No, but they were easy wins.

      And now that the fight is, without question, appealing to the public he "doesn't want to give him a payday"?? What a load of ****

        Does seem a poor excuse in the light of Witter offering a fight on a Winner takes all basis

          Lol so who else has hatton ducked? Don't forget he was contracted to Frank Warren for most of his career and basically he'd be flogged for all hes worth before getting the more dangerous fights, now hes free of him I expect a Witter fight by the end of the year.

            Witter has first got to win his debut fight on HBO against Demetrius Hopkins, i think HBO will try and line up the winner of this to fight Hatton.[/

              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.
              Yea i agree with that Hatton fans say *Well he fought Tszyu, Mayweather, why would he duck Witter ??*. Its simple because Hatton had nothing to lose fighting those guys, he has everything to lose fighting Witter, Hatton could never live down losing to his bitter rival, and it would also prove who is number 1 or 2 in the Jr Welterweight division.

                  Definitely Witter has to win and impress against D-hop but i doubt it since both fighters are counterpuncher, Dont be surprise if the fight was boring.

                    You dont seem to get te logic read the post just above you to understand the risk involve in fighting Witter as oppose to fighting Mayweather.

                    Nobody is claiming Witter to be better than Mayweather.
