Witters level of competition

it just seems to me that Witter hasnt either pushed himself enough or probably more likely, his advisors havent done enough about getting him the really big fights. his career seems focused on this fight he didnt get with hatton, and thats sad.

 

harris and corley, not to bad but well below hattons level

 

Witter has obviously found it alot harder to get the big fights, he has very few fans. It is not like he has got himself to a level of popularity then decided to take the easy route.

 

Not very impressed by Witter's competition. Was totally unimpressed by his performance against Zab Judah

 

Anyone who suggests that Hatton caught some of his opponents "at the right time" should check out Corelys record after Witter, hes 0-5.

 

fact is witter has not just been avoided by hatton, but by everyone at light welter since he fought zab judah. high risk, no reward describes him perfectly.

 

Yep he shoud step up and fight Bradly Price and Numbbumy.

 

You missed out "boring as hell".

 

What has boring got to do with it?

As a boxer that does not make him any less deserving. It takes all kinds of styles in boxing, it would be even more boring if they were all the same or spent a huge portion of the fight hugging.

His level of competition in the last few years is pretty good for a one time beltholder. It's certainly one of the better resumes in the 140lb division. Before that, not so much.

 

So Hattons record is "horrible" and "terrible" (your words) but Witters is "pretty good"?

 

He got Zab Judah, didn't he? The rest was down to him.

 

Like it or not, Witters style had a major impact on how is career went. Boring showings in big fights stopped him getting the promotional backing/ fanbase for the fights he wanted.

 

I said it is pretty good in the last few years. Corley (okay, as shot as Castillo), Harris, N'dou, Kotelnik. Not bad at all.

But Hatton's is supposed to be the resume of a former p4p rated fighter. If that is how you want to be recognised, if you claim to be well past the stage of fighting the Witter's of this world, we should judge you by those standards. And by those standards it is a very bad resume. As is Witter's.
