Hatton Camp: "Witter Priced Himself Out"

[hulme#1]

Remember that Hatton is "The Man" at 140 even Witter is a dire performer and if Hatton gave him a Shot he needs to accept that people will be paying to see Hatton not Witter.

They'll be paying to see Ricky and Junior fight. That's the whole point of an all British showdown - two quality British fighters, fans paying to see them fight. Ok, so Ricky will have the greater support. A lot of that support still want to see him fight Junior more than anyone else.

wait Hatton didn't make any offer to witter. Witter made this offer to hatton and Hatton refused it. linky http://www.skysports.com/story/0,195...173395,00.html

Witter could not lace rickys boots and down the road he will find that out. ill be surprised if he even gets past hopkins Theres only one ricky hatton bring on the americans. They can line them up and team hatton will knock them down while walking in a hatton wonderland

word up mother ****\er

This whole thing is ******. Witter is the WBC Champ for crying out loud!!! It should be him Hatton is fighting, I understand Lazcano, and even Malignaggi after that. But Hatton should have Witter in his sights for early 09!

It's sad that the same fans who support Hatton, dog on Mayweather for being a businessman, while they defend Ricky as he becomes one.

Remember that Hatton is "The Man" at 140 even without a Belt.
Witter has beaten no-one really even though he owns a trinket.
Anyone with sense should realise that Belts mean NOTHING these days.
Witter is a dire performer and if Hatton gave him a Shot he needs to accept that people will be paying to see Hatton not Witter.
Sometimes I wonder how many people on here who champion Witter have actually seen him fight?
Especially against Lynes & Kotelnik.
He can't even sell out an Arena in his Hometown either.
Witter should have taken the Money and proved he could do the job.

If Witter was the best option for Hatton then he might get 30%. He isn't though, a much better option is Malignaggi, and a fight with Ricardo Torres would be more of a spectacle. Witter's ugly spoiling style will make it a stinker.

[Chunk..]

Witter's a bum, maybe he'll be happier fighting back in Doncaster in front of an old man and his dog?

He should be happy with what ever he gets because it's more then what he gets already.

[tredh]

Even if this true just because a fighter is offered the highest payday of his career doesn't mean its a fair offer and needs to be accepted.

Hatton would get 70% how was witter pricing him self out, he holds the title at the moment and 30% seems fine to me.

Well Witter aint the draw m8 is he..How many people are actually bothered weather or not they watch one his fights? I aint for one..I have never thought to myself, Get the lads round a few beers and watch a Witter fight lol even if I did set it up everyone would say there got better things to do than to watch that pleb.. IMO only though I might be wrong
