Is everyone in love with Junior Witter?

Why all the love for Junior Witter?

why why why?

I can understand maybe some American's who've only seen him beat Vivian Harris. But what about the Brits who saw him fight Judah, N'Dou, Kotelnik, Lynes etc..?

Does one impressive KO over a complete donkey wipeout half a dozen stink fests?

Does being over-confident and unorthodox make you a great fighter?

Does switch-hitting and having a cool hair cut make you great?

So many questions....

Is Britain that desperate for a new boxing hero now Hatton has lost?

Is Hatton on the downward slope that most British sports stars go down after being built up?

Is Witter on his way up that slope? If he is, why?

Why is Hatton being called a coward when he has twice (very recently) conceded weight to fight in his opponents home country and city?

Why is he being lambasted for fighting Juan Lazcano, when he has just come off a KO loss?

Why is he being lambasted for wanting to get back in the ring with the same fighter who brutally ko'd him? Anybody who answers "for the money" is completely over-looking the fact that Hatton genuinley wants another shot.

Why does one win over Vivian Harris wipeout the displays against Judah, Lynes, Kotelnik and N'dou?

and most importantly

Why hasn't Witter made an offer? Wonder if it's because he can continue to generate publicity from fighting mediocre opponents and slagging Hatton off?

Just a final note to say that i can not believe the naivety of some people on here. This fight will happen, regardless of wether you agree Junior deserves it. Hatton and Witter are playing Cat and Mouse....building the fight up. Witter is fighting on ITV, Witter is gaining lots of popularity with the fans who are sick of the sight of Hatton, Witter is fighting a fighter who has hardly any chance of beating him.....so's Hatton. The same thing will happen around November time. This fight will happen in 2009. You'll see.

Good post mate said it all for me i think some people have short memories when they can not remember Witter sword fencing not long ago!!!!!

I honestly don't think there's anything special about this fella.To me he is probably the most overrated/overhyped fighter in the ring today.He will fight someone big then get knocked out.

I dont love Witter. He is alright as a boxer but just that. He hasnt beaten the quality that Hatton has beaten, not by a long shot. Of course, he can call out Hatton. That gets the attention of only those are blind to the fact that Hatton has just fought the best and that Witter is still far away from deserving the only big cheque of his career.
