if you'll remember. cos u do have a good memory rantings. :yep magee delivered a meaningful victory at the men arena against jon thaxton (knocked him out in 6 rds). and earned the shot at hatton. :deal
Jawaid went life and death with a SHOT Bergman. Dont get it twisted my friend. Back then at least Witter was fighting for a recognised world title. It took Ricky twice as many fights to even get that far. But hey the gravy train was rolling on right..
[quote="TKO";3498071]I don't know do I, I wasn't party to the negotiations, it was between their camps. Magee maybe a little too dangerous. No Lucky Sambo or Laatakwei Hammond after all was he?[/quote]Your simply a liar who backs up his argument with false accusations. End of story end of conversation.
I remember it clearly. "HOW" that earned him a shot when the WBU had NO RANKING system il never know. Seeing as Witter AND Ricky were both promoted by SN this clearly would have been an easy fight to make. Ricky said it was written into his contract. He reneged on that agreement after his fight with a 40 year old relic Vince Phillips. Im sure you remember that.
The IBF was on the line was it not? Witter in what was around his 19th fight was fighting for that title was he not? Id take the IBF over the WBU. Im sure you would too. Then again maybe not....
yeah and phillips fought out of his skin that night. and in the fight before lost a split to sharmba mitchell. on the same card witter looked dreadful against a belgian fighter jurgen haeck. atsch
You're the one who brought up the fight you dumb ****. Witter won 1 round against Judah, then got his track shoes on, so what's your point?
Fought out of his skin? Are you serious? A former 40 year old crack head who just about got his visa fought out of his skin!??!?!!?!? Phillips rocked Hatton to the sole of his boots around the 10th but that fight was all one way buddy. Phillips could barely even remember how to throw a jab! You want to know what Phillips did after that? The poor crack head entered the K1 and got the **** kicked out of his legs to feed his drug habit.
19th or so fight. No shame there as far as im concerned. He followed that up with 15KO`s. Some of which were stunning. Thats boxing. Styles make fights. To hold one fight against a rookie boxer is pretty pathetic, and to then try and use that as some basis for a solid argument?
