    They would both quit at the weigh-in complaining of menstrual cramps.

    TerryESB I don't often get annoyed by posters but your a tool. Harrison done a great interview after that rogan fight must have got his jaw wired shut and recovered in the space of 20 minutes either that or he is a mutant???

    Also embarrased by Bradley? Did you watch the fght? Embarassed by Judah? He was beaten by a prime Judah with a few weeks notice and Judah at that time was in the top ten fighters.

    Witter will probably fall into gatekeeper soon enough. The Ingle style was not made for 30 + year olds the sooner Witter trys to adjust the better. His speed timing and reflexes are all not what they used to be. His stamina has always been below par. He really needs to re-think his style.

    I can't think of any style that would work for Witter at this point. His chin is creaking, reflexes showing and speed slowing...

    I mean if he started jabbing like 20 times more and counter attacked with power shots when come forward fighters chased him that might work but it's never going to happen is it.

    Yeah i know he has a decent jab but gets very lazy. As you said he can be a decent counter puncher but with his speed slowing he would probably get caught a good bit as Alexander done to him. He should also tone down the leaping hooks and uppercuts they should be more of a surprise move rather than an every other punch.

    This late in his career i think this might be the end for witter would love him to do another run as a fan but to be honest to myself i don't see him picking a title up unless he gets Khan.

    I like Witter and I think he gets to much hate on ESB but I think he should stay away from top world class fighter and maybe have a crack at the Euro belt which is winnable at the moment.

    he was never anything other than a glorified gatekeeper.

    Yes, but I just wish he'd retire and never bore us with his crappy style again

    Thats ridiculous man. The guy had talent, skills and decent power but just had the wrong mentality at times in the ring.

    I can see him getting beaten by Kotelnik now, and McCloskey.

    His only chances are against other ex-champs like Hatton or MBaye, but TBH he wouldnt get decisions against in Manchester or Paris!!!
