  Hatton/Warren — is Ricky right to move on?
Hatton Snr claims that they are not legally contracted to Warren and have been dealing with the leading British promoter on a fight to fight basis for a long period of time.

Hatton Snr also expressed his disappointment with the behaviour of Warren saying he was, “surprised” and “frustrated”, adding that he didn’t want to get in a legal wrangle but if that’s would it took, “then so be it”.

 Warren Launches Counterattack On Hatton And Harris Claims
Hatton's contention was that his big World Boxing Association showdown with Vivian Harris - now scheduled for the M.E.N. Arena on October 2 - was announced to the public before there had been consultation with the ‘Hitman’ himself.
Hatton was also unhappy that his last two fights had been against low-grade opponents, and that he had climbed into the ring unaware of what his purse had been.
As Frank himself stated on his own website, Harris may well enter the ring a slight betting favourite, and most observers have this as a 50-50 fight, and even the most optimistic Hatton fans shouldn’t be predicting a walkover against the tough transplanted Brooklyn-based fighter.
