Junior Witter v Paul McCloskey

Campbell v Witter sounds decent.

 

You are disingenious prat. If you have read my posts you will know that my opinion of Junior Witter is not high at all and have been consistent in this view. I have called him yesterday's man for a long time now. Witter is an obstacle the WBC have asked us to negotiate not a great one actually for a fighter of Ajose' s capability. My assessment of Witter is that he has seen better days period. I don't know how good McCloskey will be though I have been very impressed by what I have seen to date including him getting rid of that imposter Lynes. For that alone we should all be grateful to McCloskey. This post is about Witter versus Paul McCloskey, do you expect me to lie and say I think Witter will win when I firmly believe McCloskey can take him. I was impressed more by McCloskey's performance against Lynes than Witter's victory over Lynes. I call it like I see it.

I would rather not call you names though my feelings about you are not particularly high if you are who I think you are. Lets just leave it at that.

 

Interesting:think

You can't just drop that one in there without spilling the beans. Who do you think he is?

 

So I assume that should you beat Witter you dont think that it'll improve Ajose's resume?

And I don't know who you think I am, but I can guarantee your wrong.

Still be funny to know though........

 

Simple really, Witter is a name on the CV that will impress a lot of people whilst Ajose's won't. Which fight do I want to see? Easy, your guy vs McCloskey but Ajose is part of the "Who needs him" cliched group and doesn't bring much, apart from the Commonwealth Title, to the table. A victory for Ajose over McCloskey would do more for his career than if the opposite happend.

 

MCCloskey all the way!

 

I don't particularly love Witter either, but I think calling him yesterday's man is a bit hasty. I think against Bradley, he came up against an underrated young fighter who was also a stylistic nightmare for him (come forward, keep the pressure on to force Witter to fight at a pace he wasn't comfortable with, throw the right hand as Witter moved back), just as, in Harris, he came up against a guy who was made to make him look good. Witter has always been inconsistent at world level, however, he is still a top -10 fighter and would be easily the best fighter Ajose has ever fought.

I would like to see him and Ajose, young up and comer versus veteran looking to get back to the top. The winner could lay legit claim to deserving a title shot (more so than Devon Alexander anyway). However, someone needs to take the responsibility of making it happen.

 

No I don't think Witter is anything great but we are prepared to take him out to get a title shot. Personally I think it would have been a tougher fight years ago when we should have fought but they refused. In the period Ajose has gotten better and Witter has gotten worse. The problem with boxing is that people don't pay attention to detail. I will give you a tip which is some people think Hatton's performance against Malignaggi was great and that Hatton under Floyd Mayweather Senior is getting better etc. He is not and Malignaggi has actually been slipping as shown by his 2nd fight with Ndou. Pacman is improving and I know Hatton is saying 3 more fights and out but it may be that after the 2nd May he has to call it quits.

If a fight with Witter nevber happens the only person to blame is Witter. I have even questioned his manhood(things quite franly I would rather not have to do) to provoke the contest all to no avail. The man has no shame yet he has the audacity to say Hatton has been ducking him for years, silly chap. I think the truth is more that Hatton does not want to give him any sort of pay day whatsoever.

 

olu why dont you actualy spend some time trying to get ajose a fight instead of typing essays on here?

 

Thanks for the advice. What makes you think I don't. We just had a contest in February 2009 and are looking forward to the next bout be it McCloskey, the lad from Bradford, Devon Alexander or whoever.

 

let me rephrase that.try get ajose a fight that matters.witter and mccloskey are fighting each other so just forget about them.if ajoses as good as you say take him to the states and fight alexander or malinaggi

 

Well quite obviously to anyone with any sense. Witter has never been willing to go out of his own way to make the required opportunities for himself. I would have thought him and Ajose would be easy to make and Witter would be up for it, a chance to secure himself a mandatory title shot. Oh well, if not McCloskey would be a good chance for your guy. As for Witter, he ain't getting any younger.

 

What about Olusegun v Pavlik ?, is it a possibility and surely Ajose would take the technically deficient Pavlik to school .

 

Stop mentioning names like McCloskey and Devon Alexander like those fights would ever happen !!

He's going to be fighting a bum isnt he, and again for a next few fights ? So leave out naming top contenders like Devon because we know thats not true.
