I
truly believe there are still guys out there who are in it for the sport too and are willing to make some sacrifices to be well recognized and well remembered.
It's like Casamayor. I can't count how many guys in here hate him and want him out the game but although I'm not a fan of his, I love his willingness to fight all comers.
Oh and by the way, he CAN fight. I've seen him live and he's a good crafty fighter.
If you think that's Junior Witter then you are severley misguided.
And if you think that is Junior Witter....you are again, seriously misguided.
Just joking about the 2nd bit. He's made his name out of slagging off Ricky Hatton. His only big win is over Vivian Harris.....fucking Carlos Maussa knocked him out! It aint shit.
Junior is a good fighter. But there are also 5 or 6 other fighters at 140 who are at his standard. Don't let his confidence and awkward style fool you into thinking he's anything but a good fighter.
Scraping home against N'dou (only won because of the knockdowns), Kotelnik (actually scored it a draw) and Lynes (If it wasn't for the 12th Witter would have drawn) show to me that he is just a good fighter. Ko'ing Vivian Harris and constantly calling out Ricky Hatton does not make you a great fighter.
Ricky is out of excuses and if he doesn't fight him, it's definitely fear.
