Thread: Timothy Ray Bradley vs. Junior Witter?

Not to be confused with Fenster's witter dodger post, this is on another site that I can't even mention but it has Gary Shaw saying that Bradley is going to England to fight Witter. Even has a date, May 10th. Can't say how set it really is as I don't see it anywhere else.

Don't even know that much about Bradley, a volume puncher/pressure fighter type, assume he'd just try to get in Witter's face, outwork him.

I think Witters outboxes Bradley...
Bradleys a good prospect/contender but I think Witters that much better.

I heard this was gonna happen in the States.. if it happened

Just a miracle Witter has someone willing to face him

Do not know anything about Bradley but Witter fighting in the US will certainly strengthen his exposure and status there and hopefully a fight with Hatton.

No - as Oumafan's first post said - the fight is over here (England). It's gonna be on the Froch bill.. which is LIVE on ITV

You sure? Boxing News magazine reported this was in the US.

Agreed, and it had to be a prospect. None of the "big names of 140" seemed to call him out. Except Malignaggi..but then again, Malignaggi would call out Tyson if you payed him enough, and Paulie seems more focused on Hatton.

It's going on the Froch - Inkin bill.

Also has Murray - Fewkes on the undercard.

Going to be a great card.

Bradley is a local fighter where I am, seen him a couple of times but against very limited opposition. He's got a solid amateur background, but not too many pro fights. Might be rushing him a little, but I really don't know anything about Witter.

Bradley is a boxer. Not a big puncher, although he got tko's in the fights I saw him in. Very solid technically. I think he would have really outboxed Castillo at this point. I have never seen Witter, but from what I hear they have the same style. The bad part about the fight is it's Bradleys first step up. His test with Castillo didn't happen. So he's used to fighting lower level competition, and hasn't had a real test yet.

Sink or swim, nothing like throwing em in the deep end right off the bat.

On that analysis he will loose to Witter, who is world class and can punch.

Fenster is right, it is on the Froch v Inkin under card so it is exposure in England which is another thing Witter needs.

Yes some fantastic action to be had there, genuine unpredicability. Cannot wait, 2 very good fights indeed for sure, you never know when Witter is gonna stink the place out though

That is generally what a turd does

I think this will be a very competitive battle. Bradley has good fundamentals but Witter is a better all round fighter IMO. Add in Witter's power & I believe he holds all the advantages.

The whole card looks very solid & should be extremely entertaining!!!
