Re: Have Hatton and Witter Ever Spared?
doubt that very much
Witter from Bradford - and then trained in Sheffield under the Brendan Ingle set up.
Hatton from Manchester - invovled in that scene - under Billy Graham and the Phinox gym - sparring likes of Matthew Macklin and Jamie Moore would be more likely.

Re: Have Hatton and Witter Ever Spared?
always thought Witter would spark Hatton
style's make fights
the Witter who sparked out vivian harris would have destroyed Hatton I believe
he would have nailed Hatton with a shot he never saw - like Manny Pac did last night
think it would have gone a few rounds though but I think Witter had his number
Shame - Ricky never wanted the fight

Re: Have Hatton and Witter Ever Spared?
I believe Andrew facey sparred with Hatton for his fight with Maussa and Manocha Salari sparred Hatton on 3 or 4 occasions both from the Ingle gym
Re: Have Hatton and Witter Ever Spared?
I've always thought Witter had the beating of Hatton on his day, Hatton is best with come forward fighters who he can time not people with awkwed styles and I think stepping between south paw and orthadox would give Hatton kittens... doubt it'll ever happen now.FLINT ISLAND wrote:always thought Witter would spark Hatton

Re: Have Hatton and Witter Ever Spared?
i remember when richard evett first turned pro he sparred witter and smashed him all over the place witter got out after 2 rounds
Re: Have Hatton and Witter Ever Spared?
I dunno, Harris has looked very spent since that fight and I dont personally think Witter deals with pressure very well, he seems like he doesnt know what to do under pressure, a bit like Audley, looks off balance and awkward under pressure. But who knowsFLINT ISLAND wrote:always thought Witter would spark Hatton

HE did well against Ndou's pressureCroydon1 wrote:

Re: Have Hatton and Witter Ever Spared?
True, but Ndou has lost to every top fighter he has faced so it's hard to say how effective his pressure is. When Bradley put the pressure on Witter he didnt seem to know how to deal with it, he just sort of stopped and held, no inside fighting. I just think Hatton would rough him up.Phenomenal-Nutrition wrote:HE did well against Ndou's pressureCroydon1 wrote:

Ndou is pretty decent, most say he was jobbed a bit against Shamba Mitchell, he beat Rabah (who most had beating Urango), he broke Cottos ribs backed him up and won a few rounds and maybe deserved to win the Malignaggi rematchCroydon1 wrote:True, but Ndou has lost to every top fighter he has faced so it's hard to say how effective his pressure is.

Doubt it!
If Hatton was too scard to fight him for £Millions I doubt he would have stepped in a ring for free.
Hope this fihts does not happen, Hatton might get hurt and no one wants to see that.

Hatton would have munched him.

Dont underestimate the use of modern-day transport! Bradford's Witter, currently residing in Doncaster has sparred with Jaime Moore in Manchester on a few occasions.

So, what you're trying to say, P-N, is that he lost them all, right?Phenomenal-Nutrition wrote: Ndou is pretty decent, most say he was jobbed a bit against Shamba Mitchell, he beat Rabah (who most had beating Urango), he broke Cottos ribs backed him up and won a few rounds and maybe deserved to win the Malignaggi rematch
