Is everyone in love with Junior Witter?

[sonny78]

So why hasn't Witter made an offer?

Why hasn't Hatton said he will fight him! Witter is the champion hatton should make him an offer he would fight for bus fare.

I am getting sick of people viewing boxing as a f**ing popularity contest we all have a favourites but the best should fight the best and while it may not be perfect we have world champions and rankings to identify the best

Witter is the best at LW

Hatton used to be the best but is coming off a loss, a he should prove he is the best by beating the best, saying he wont fight him because he doesn't like him and fans (so called fans) saying he shouldn't fight him because no one likes him is stupid

And there's me thinking stoppage wins over TSzyu and Castillo were slightly better then a win over Vivian Harris.

Hatton's loss was at 147 by the way.

And it's Witter who depserately needs Hatton so the logic would lie with Witter making the offer......seen as tho he hasn't shut up about him for the last 6 years.

You taking the piss ono?

You're not trying to suggest Witter doesn't really want the fight are you?

Look a few threads down, Witter said he'll fight him on the freemans

Am saying if he really wanted the fight that badly, surely he would have made an offer to fight him?

Seems strange that he's been happy to slag him off for 6 years, but he hasn't made one offer to fight him other than sayin "i'd fight him for free, 'i'd fight him for bus fare" etc... but without really following it through with anything concrete.

I am suggesting that Witter has made a good living from fighting mediocre opponents whilst earning his reputation from stalking Hatton. It's his mouth outside the ring rather than his performances inside it that has captured the publics attention.

I agree

Hatton's loss was at 147 by the way.

Thats why he is no longer the best at 140

Let me clear things up I am sorry If I confused you, I think hatton is the best fighter at 140 but he has nothing holding up his pants, so he should be going for belts or fighting the best at the weight, lucky for Hatton theres a gobby switch hitter in Bradford who has the highest regarded belt, is ranked No 1 and says he will fight him for f**k all

So Fight Him!


Question: At 140 not including Hatton who is better than Witter?

I pick Malinaggi over Witter at 140...I even go 50/50 in a bout with him and Hatton.

Paulie has one of the best jaw's in the game and his movement is enough to give anyone fit's....He wouldn't stand still long enough for either to get in any volume of shot's off at one time...Hatton's hit and hold would not be that effective due to the fact Paulie would be hard to tie up...Witter would not out box him or take him out with power....

People tend to forget all about Paulie because he is not a big puncher....

Nah Paulie looked awful in his last fight. And hasnt got any big wins on his record to suggest he could beat Witter .

1. Witter
2. Hatton
3. Malignaggi
4. Kotelnick
5. Torres

Thats how I see it

Im basing it on who I thinks better . I suppose you can debate whos better based on achievements. Hattons had better wins and has done more but IMO Witter would win if they met so I rate him higher . Better speed , power , skills etc . Witter wouldnt have got knocked out vs Floyd and I think Witter overall is a better boxer than Ricky .

[Pugilistic]

i can't stand witter

[Rican]

I wouldn't say I am in love with Witter. He is not even in my top ten of favorite fighters out there today. I just feel that based on what he has accomplished at 140 that he is deserving of a shot at Hattton more than anyone in the weight class. You may say he is not in Hatton's class or that Ricky will KO him, but it deserves to be proven in the ring.

[Kirkland Laing]

No, not in love with him. Watched him in some crap fights. But he deserves his chance against the bottlejob Hatton and Hatton is ducking him.

[Puya]

Well i barely have seen some of his fights. But I got to admit I do liked what I seen so far. It will be a great match up with him and ricky. The one It really interest me is after him and Hatton is Witter vs Malignaggi

I still stand by what I said...Malignaggi is the dark horse of the champions./..Don't let his last fight be the way to judge him

[Memphis]

I dont like Witter but he does deserve his chance.

Ricky wont fight him because he said something nasty at sports personality of the year, wont fight him because he desnt want to give him a payday, hasnt done enough, isnt a big enough name........Its all getting very boring.

Ricky is affraid of losing to Witter, I dont doubt that for one minute. For those that say he cant be affraid, he just fought the best in the business above his prefered weight class, bollocks. That was a pretty much risk free assignment (always a risk climbing through the ropes, Im aware of that)

I like Ricky and want him to do well but the whole act is wearing thin.
