At least Paulie has a following in the states and in reality Ricky would probably get more respect for a win over him than Witter.
Because Witter deserves his shot, Witter has been calling out Hatton for years its about time the fight happened. Witter is arguably the 2nd best Jr Welterweight in the world so why shouldn't he get his shot ??
I believe he is the second best light welter in the world, he's stronger than Paulie, better technically than Torres and more expierienced than Hopkins etc.

Poor fight, big reward.
