    disappointed that witter lost but at least the silver lining is that their shouldn't be any more hatton ducking witter threads.

    like bradley said, witter appeared to be looking beyond the opponent on the night and that cost him bigtime

    He fought Kotelnik who went on and won the WBA title.

    Lynes won the British and Euro In 6 weeks.

    Harris a former champ and beat Lazcano.

    Corley, a former champ who gave a good effort against Floyd and Judah.

    Gave Judah a closer fight than what most think on 9 days notice even though he still lost.

    Hatton wouldn't of even touched Tszyu without FW and without the right matchmaking he would have more losses than Floyd. He didn't fight any fresh top 10 light welters either.

    Hatton refused to fight Corley (a PRIME Corley that is) when he was the WBO mandatory. His got tons of balls that kid.

    Is that a joke? Are you trying to suggest that Warren pushed for the Tyszu fight and Hatton only stepped in the ring with Tsyzu due to Warren pressure?:lol:

    What made him step into the ring against PBF with virtually no chance of winning? A phone call from Warren?

    It was FW's match making and silver spoon treatment that got Hatton to championship level and he didn't give him Tszyu until the right time.

    If Junior had got the FW silver spoon maybe we would be fooled about his true level as well.

    Floyd picked Hatton when Hatton got mouthy, Witter got mouthy about Hatton and Hatton claims disrespecting Is bad.

    He fought Kotelnik when Kotelnik was nobody with no titles.
    He fought Lynes when Lynes had no titles.
    Typical Witter opponents and he was crap in both fights.

    Corley was losing to anyone half decent when he fought Witter.
    Witter didn't even look good.

    He lost to Judah, who loses himself every time in world class.

    It's hardly impressive. :-(

    You obviously have a selective memory or amnesia. I have seen the lad from Bradford who trains in Sheffield in a number of fights now to know that anyone who can match him for speed and with better skills/fundamentals can beat him. Bradley is actually not that experienced but he had better stamina and could match the lad from Bradford for speed and more physical strength that made the lad from Bradford unravel. Ajose has many ways of winning a fight and is no 1 trick pony. The closest thing Witter has fought to Ajose was Zab Judah and we all remember what happened. The difference is Ajose is better than Judah and can keep his mind on the job. Witter knock Ajose out in 3 hell had Ajose been in with Witter last night the lad from Bradford would not have finished round 6.

    You are obviously a fan of the lad from Bradford but the truth is that he has some always had some glaring flaws.

    So when is Ajose actually going to fight someone of note? He has been a pro for 7 years and his last opponent had a record of 4-4. Not exactly making waves is he?
    I suggest you look for a new promoter.

    The worst thing from my point of view is that due to certain posters attitudes on the ESB Brit forum I actually watched a Brit fight a Yank and wanted the Yank to win just to shut the moaners (who don't really like Witter, they just hate Hatton) on here up.

    I hear you

    I supported Junior, always have

    But this anti-Hatton thing that Junior has recently been dragged into amazes me and it can make you resent Junior.

    You just have to remember he is not the one calling Hatton childish names etc, it's actually folk on a web forum with an axe to grind.

    There will be a new stick to beat Hatton with soon, some people are just obsessed

    I would just like this opportunity to say.....

    Witter sucks. And he has sucked for a long time. I saw this result coming. In fact, I put money on this result. I mean seriously, what ****ing logical reason did the people backing Witter to be Hatton have for that conclusion. I understand the Hatton-hating, without a doubt. But are you guys so ****ing desperate for someone to beat him that you chose to jump on Witter's balls?! Jesus ****ing Christ.....
