Zab Judah's Offer Was Embarrasing, Says Matthew Hatton

[Owlzfan84]

Judah would be a very good win for Matthew Hatton.

Yes it would, and thats why he should of taken the fight. I mean did he really expect more money? he's virtually unknown fighting a former two weight champion and pretty big name. Might not be the biggest pay day of his career, but if he wins, it leads to much bigger pay days in the future.

Personally i think Matthew didnt really want any of it, or he's not thinking long term, or he's just ******ed.

Wow.... I'm not a huge fan of Zab, but Matthew should even be begging to fight him for free. Zab is levels above him as far as marketability is concerned. This could have been an Alfonzo Gomez v Arturo Gatti moment for him.. DUMBASS.. He mis-hustled himself...

he says he wants to come out of his brothers shadow but without ricky nobody would even know who matthew hatton is.

After posting... I realized that Zab v Ricky Hatton couldn't be a bad fight either... I would watch it... just a thought.

Judah would be a very good win for Matthew Hatton.

Cotto would have been a very good win for Michael Jennings.

And Pavlik would have been a very good win for Gary Lockett.

I respect Hatton's decision of rejecting it through principle but maybe he should of took the fight regardless of the offer, I know it isn't right but Matthew Hatton is kinda in his brothers shadow and wants out... at this stage a win over Judah isn't huge but its still something and it is a step forward from who he is fighting now at domestic level.

Matthew Hatton would have as much chance of beating Judah as Michael Jennings had of beating Cotto.

He just knows he couldn't beat Judah.

Dumbass Matthew shoulda taken whatever offer he got and made the fight.

If you know you're going to be beaten, I don't see why it's dumbass to insist on getting good money for it - after losing to Judah he'd go back to obscurity again.
