    Erm Vivian Harris is a top level operator, deffo a Top 10 Light Welter. Whether Witter is overrated is another issue. He needs to defeat another couple of Top 10 LW's for me, before we know how good he is. Everyone knows Witter blows hot and cold.

    The only fight ive seen of Witter is when he fought against Judah. That performance was unforgivable, he was timid and scared, you got the feeling that he didn't want to take any chances.

    i dont believe he is over rated. but hatton would be a different class at light welter. whether his style is loved or hated. hatton would still have too much for anyone at lww at the minute

    How is he overrated? He barely seems to get a mention by the yanks

    All they remember is a defeat to a prime Judah, at a few weeks notice

    Severely underrated I'd say

    Can't say if he is overrated but one thin gis for sure, that he is not yet on Hatton's level. he got beat by Judah, nuff said.

    This was early in his career and he took the fight on a week or so's notice, so do your ****ing research before you talk ****

    Didn't Witter give N'dou more of a pasting than even Mayweather did until he busted his hand ?

    Putting Ndou on his backside twice in 4 rounds is quite impressive.

    I think Witter is a deserving World Champion at Light Welter

    Far from overrated, a top 3 Junior Welter with some good wins. Only loss was a decision to a pre-Zoo Judah. I can only see him and maybe Paulie beating Hatton at 140, every one else gets beat.

    Bollocks Witter is a quality operator who has been avoided hs whole carreer

    Im a Hatton fan but Witter would be a nightmare for him, he would probably win but he may well have to get opff the canvas to do so.

    No, the opposite how the hell could he be overrated, you could fit his fans in to Ricky's fridge.
