Hatton was waiting for a "take note" performance from Witter and he blew it (beating Maussa's left overs doesn't count). Junior was lucky to get his wins over Kotelnik and Lynes but Bradley went all out and got his deserved prize, the WBC belt. bye bye Witter.

Guys like Michael Stewart, Juan Lazcano and Juan Urango weren't on Hatton's level, but that never stopped Hatton from fighting them. It was an argument of convenience really. This was the fight that most British fans who weren't inordinately loyal to Hatton's camp wanted.
Hatton was using the same argument that Mayweather and his fans use to justify why Mayweather doesn't fight guys like Cotto and Margarito.

YEARS AGO, witter called him out TO HIS FACE
Hatton said he told frank he wanted the fight, what the **** happened to ricky wanting the fight? He said "Lets get it on" not, i wanna wait a little while.

Everyone is quick to blame hatton. Witter is the one who lost to a completely green prospect! the kid was not even rated top 10. Witter ****ed up, and can not blame anyone other than himself. whether hatton would have or not have fought witter i don't know or care, but the fact is that witter lost his belt to a rookie, and has nothing to offer now! so how can hatton be blamed? we all know this sport is about the paper, and draw. just as floyd is waiting for cotto wo get bigger, hatton was doing the same in witter imo. i dunno know, alot of hating. the kid fought the p4p champ, kostya tsyzu, yet he is scared of witter who lost to a prospect???? ok, anyway! plus ray hatton said ricky was going to fight witter before he retired. now what if hatton fights bradley and smashes him? than what will you all say?

Hatton can go ahead and smash Bradley all he wants it wouldnt make any difference, He ducked Witter period, People are blaming Hatton for coming out and chatting **** again not because Witter went out and lost.
They should just stfu and not say anything instead of chatting **** when the guy lost.Last edited by Ray*; 05-15-2008, 01:01 PM.

I remember all the bs he was sprouting out about how he has Witter's name in his contract, So what happen to the contract Hatton? Your dog ate it?

Hattons getting far too much grief on here, christ it was his dad that made these comments, not him. In any case, I think it's pretty cynical to think he was lying when he said they were considering Witter. Seriously, come on.
I think Hatton would beat Witter and Bradley, and I think he knows it too. It'd odd people are jumping to Witters defence losing to an unknown, yet Calzaghe beats a legend and many still underate him, and Hatton didn't do that bad against P4P no. 1, and gets grief.
Seriously, get into perspective man. Witter lost to an unknown whom Floyd and Hatton would've beaten. So all this, Witter deserves a shot at Hatton **** is getting a little old. He's mouthed off left right and centre and put Ricky off fighting him, now he's lost to a lesser fighter than Ricky. I really don't see why anyone would feel sorry for him or still try to justify he's deserves a shot at Ricky after this.
