Junior Witter

[Fenster]

I think Witter was offered the Khan fight when Kotelnik originally pulled out.. it was obviously ultra short notice and he had this WBC shot lined up.

Be interesting if Witter gets offered Khan again should he win. I would bet not.

[TigerFan]

How good is Alexander? I've never seen him fight.

witter was saying in the paper that ricky hatton will forever be remembered as the man who dodged him, is this man insane, no one knows who witter is

In fairness it was the worst case of ducking in recent times, Hatton only got
away with it because of his fanbase, I'd like to see Witter win this, I think he'd take Khan out as well, Hatton still wouldnt fight him though...

[skel1983]

Why has Alexanders people rejected the commisions decision for the judges ?? Surely this is an advantage if anything for him?

[paddy448]

personally i think witters an asshole

Gonna have to disagree with you on this one, the only reason that Witter was even in the same frame as Hatton was that he was nearly world level and that he was at the same weight.

Since Witter got hold of his belt, Hatton's always been looking at bigger and brighter stars than Witter. Witter's main problem is that he has no fanbase at all, so he has to go through the mainstream rankings, as he doesn't bring the attraction of fans and money to the table. Hatton fills out the City of Manchester stadium and gets dragged to Las Vegas, Witter's fighting at the Doncaster Dome, and travelling to the States to Rancho Mirage.....

That's a bit off Rhun.

Their rivalry started when they were at Brit title level (2000). Witter may not have a huge fanbase but do fighters like Lazcano? As you said Hatton fills out the City of Manchester stadium - it doesn't/didn't matter who's in the other corner. The only justifiable fighters Hatton fought that were better, more "deserving" than Witter were Tszyu, Castillo, Mayweather and Pac.

He ducked Witter bad.

[rjj tszyu]

I think Witter will take this one. He is a really awkward fighter and if he is on top of his game will take a UD for me.

yep Hatton could have fought Witter many times but fought less guys instead, also Witter would have fought for next to nothing just to get the fight so Hatton would have made huge money in a fight that would have been huge in Britian. fact is if any other fighter had ducked a guy like that they would have been slated, but because everyone loved Hatton they bought his bullshit excuses...

he is good but he is mechanical. Like the way Berto looks like everything he does is sorta programmed into him like a robotic jerky speed? Thats basically Devon Alexander, he fights like he was manufactured somewhere. I think Witter should beat him. If Witter doesn't come in like he did against Bradley.

It looks like it might not even be a world title fight.


I feel a bit sorry for Witter even though he has not made things easy for himself over the years.

Fights not going to decision anyway. But seriously what the hell So basically it said all three judges are gonna be from the USA and they refuse to replace one with a foreigner?

Yeah I don't think it's gonna happen but the way things are going Witter had better not let this go to decision.
