Ricky Hatton warns Boxing over the UFC

By Johnny Benz, DoghouseBoxing (Aug 9, 2009)

Ricky Hatton like many of us is not happy with the way the Boxing World is conducting it's business. Hatton is claiming that Boxing risks being overtaken by Ultimate Fighting (UFC) if it doesn't get its house in order.

Hatton who is pissed that his brother Mathew's fight with Zab Judah has been called off again (Second time now). The fight was canceled again this week because reportedly Judah made a last-minute stipulation, wanting the fight to take place at 10st 3lbs. The fight is off because Matthew fights at 10st 7lbs.

Angered over the last minute cancellation, Hatton was quoted by manchestereveningnews.co.uk, stating: "I look at boxing from a different angle now and it is dying a death compared to the fashionable Ultimate Fighting Challenge."

Hatton added: "Matthew was taking all the risks. He was prepared to go out to Las Vegas to fight in Zab Judah's backyard."
