Junior Quitter

[littlebif]

He gave a interview in his dressing room after hears the link its half way down the page Bradley Sends a Statement To Pacquiao, Even With The Cut - Boxing News

He got out of the ring ASAP though, it was only after cooling off that he was ready to get in front of the cameras. Just seemed a bit weak. Why not just say you had a bad elbow whilst still in the ring. It's almost like he needed to buy time to work up an excuse. Maybe it wasa legitimate injury, but it seemed a bit weird whilsy watching it all unfold.

I think it probably was a legit injury & despite what he said, his emotion in the interview tells me that this probably is it for him. When asked, he paused long enough that I think he thought it was but didn't want to commit to retirement just yet. His performance was an embarassment, but no more to me than Hatton's pub drunk imitation against Pacquiao

At least Hatton did'nt choose to quit,where Witter did.

Having spent $150 on a ticket, I personally felt that the least he could have done was not come out looking like someone who'd never boxed before. I don't care if he didn't quit, him swinging all over the place for 6 minutes was just as irritating & embarassing to me personally as what Witter did.

I also went out for the fight.Its a gamble when you pay so much to go out there.But would you of complained if Pacquiao fought a shocking fight?

To be honest I would have, I went there as a boxing fan not a Hatton or Pacquiao fan. The difference was Hatton had made all kind of promises of what he could do & instead he looked worse than I've ever seen him. People say reverted to type, but IMO the only type he reverted to was the kid who came into the gym the first time. Even against Mayweather where he ended up being systematically annihalated, he at least actually fought as good a fight as he was capable of IMO. The thing is I just can't see a situation where Pacquiao would of fought that poorly. Hatton knows how to fight, but he chose not to, & for me that is as much a disrespect to the fans as what Witter did. Just because he got laid out doesn't mean he gave it all he's got

[Fenster]

Witter has always blown hot and cold but that was the worst version i've ever seen - he is clearly shot to bits.

Did anyone actually hear him say "stop the fight?" I thought Dominic Ingle (his trainer) pulled him out.. that was the right decision considering how terrible he looked. I was expecting him to get sparked out any minute.

As Skel said, that loss has absolutely no bearing whatsoever on Hatton's blatant ducking of him. It doesn't matter whether or not Hatton would have beat him, it's the fact he CHOSE not to even prove it, even though he had total control of the situation.

[Saddo]

yeah he looked crap last night and quit... always been a fan of Witters and he has been ducked by hatton and its prob time for him to call it a day now.....

he'd still beat Khan imo because he was connecting with shots last night that khan would not be able to walk through

To be honest I think he would struggle with Khan or any other decent Light-Welter. Khan keeps a higher guard then Alexander & I think Witter would get messed up swinging & get caught with flurries. If Alexander threw faster combos he would have had him out of there in the 5th Round. Hell, if he'd fought either Ortiz or Alvarado he'd probably have got KO'd in about the 3rd round. Maybe a Witter fight just became more attractive for Hatton

[Kel]

Many fighters have had much worse injuries like broken hands, arms out of sockets and have gone on to win. Witter did not even give it a go "Oh my elbow" fuck off mate, you just threw what was left of your career down the shitter. Good job

To be honest Saddo what shots, did Junior Witter really land. That were telling ? i see him land a few flicking jabs, a few lefts to the body and maybe a few half decent shots on the chin. But based on that performance Amir Khan would take him to the cleaners.

I think getting sparked cold inside six minutes is worse than retiring after 8 rounds when you're maybe 3 rounds down.

Kind of hard to quit when your counting sheep.

Either way i see Hatton-Quitter on the horizon

[johnsebastianmiran]

Over a year ago I had to ask who Junior Witter was and what caliber of fighter he was. I forgot who graded him and he was right on the money, lousy.

[piye]

You guys seem way too happy to hear this guys career is over! I am a Witter fan I did not see the fight but he is clearly shot.

[JonesJrMayweather]

I still think he'd beat hatton even before PBF got to hatton, witter would have beaten him first had they fought.

[Master]

Watched the fight Bradley and witter both quit.
