& that rag reported that Ajose Olusegun knocked back a fight with Junior Witter cos the money wasnt right??? For goodness sake. Ajose should take a financial hit here to share a ring with Witter. I dont know if its been discussed here already, but please, someone tell me Olusegun hasnt knocked back the chance to fight Witter, even if the pay wasnt so hot! After all, Witter is on his way out, & for Olusegun to get a name like Witter on his resume would be huge, & throw him right into the title mix if he won. If Ajose has knocked back the chance to face Witter due to financial demands, I fear the people looking after him have made a massive mistake. Sometimes a fighter has to take a financial hit in order to prove themselves... & if Ajose has said no to a fight with Witter? Its a travesty that need sexplained more fully on here. Olu, what the **** is going on?
hopefully ajose's resident ESB diplomat will drop by to let us know the score. i'd be amazed if this is true as not only would we be taking about ajose getting a great name on his record (if he won) but there would be the itv publicity as well....
To be honest a 70/30 split in favour of Witter should be enough to intice Ola into the ring, the best he could ever get aainst Witter was 60/40
I've read various reports about Olusegun's financial demands preventing a fight with Witter in November happening - if this is inaccurate I would have thought we'd have seen some response from Olusegun's team on those sites. All very odd as Olusegun has been in need of a breakthrough fight for some time and this would appear to be a big opportunity lost. Can't really continue to claim he is being avoided after this.
At the Napa fight Friday before last, Ajose went on after the main event had finished when everyone was already on their way home and fought a 1-3-1 fighter in a six rounder. Maybe he's happier looking good doing that.
I think Witter is well past his prime and someone who Olu would probably beat. To turn that fight down Olu would have to be stupid, almost as stupid as the guy on your avatar pic looks Dunky!! (I know I cant talk)
Dunky apologies for not getting back to all of you sooner. First of all this is such bull****. We would never turn Sister Witter or whatever she is called down. What has Witter got to make us avoid her. An approach was made to Frank Maloney from Hennessy at late notice(2 weeks again surprise surprise). A counter offer was made and since then we have heard nothing from them. Next thing we hear this crap that we have turned hoim down or priced ourselves out of a contest with Witter of all the people. Watch this space as my contacts at the WBC indicate that they are likely to rule that Ajose and Witter face off in a final eliminator for the WBC title after the convention so that Witter can run but he cannot hide. For the record we would even have conceded on the late notice of 2 weeks. They thought they could catch us cold e.g. not training. Team Witter have made a mistake because once the eliminator is called we get the full 2 months of fight preparation. What makes me mad is that this prat Witter and his team in collusion with BN can spread this crap about which guarantees the punk an extra ass kicking when the contest happens. What exactly does Witter bring to the table as far as I remember he does not hold any title anymore.
This has to be some sort of sick joke. 1-3, 23-13, 4-4, 18-2, 5-2, 13-16, 15-12, 5-17, 15-1, 13-10........these are the records of the last 10 opponents that Olusegun has faced, what in there in any way justifies a slot in a final eliminator. If it is true then it just confirms to me the rife corruption within organisations like the WBC, its a ****ing joke.
At the very least Witter has a name, he was a world champion 2 fights ago. Ajose should be walking across hot coals to fight someone like Witter.
I think we're been a bit harsh on Ajose's CV here, he has some very good wins. Ignoring them is a bit silly even if this is a questionable move by Ajose management team.
