By clear UD.
He made hard work of it though, gave away the middle rounds being an idiot.. he was leading with hooks when his reflexes have gone, should of got behind his jab more.
Witter had such a bizarre style at times tonight, where he was kind of using his arm stuck up at an angle :confused: - Corley didn't know what to make of it!
There wasn't a huge ammount of action, Witter always looked a step ahead whereas Corley seemed to have developed sparring partner mentality or maybe he was confused by Witter's very unorthodox style. Witter landed the heavier punches and was sharper, Corley never troubled him and only Witter being lazy in the middle rounds allowed Corley to win a couple of rounds.
The fact that Corley is southpaw and Witter orthodox caused a few tangles with both falling to the canvas, to confuse the styles more Witter in some rounds switched repeatedly between southpaw and orthodox. Witter out-landed Corley most rounds but neither fighter threw a lot of punches, both respected the others power and didn't want to lead for fear of being countered.
Witter is a banger, watch his 15-fight KO streak..
Against completely overematched opposition...I guess that would qualify Mayweather as a banger because he had a lot of kO's early.
PS: 13 of 15 KO's were stoppages, so he wasn't exactly cleaning people up.
I understand the not wanting to be countered...but what power are we talking about? Neither has ever been known as a hard hitter. When they land punches on the chin, it hurts like everyone else, but other than that there was no exceptional power to fear in the ring yesterday.

im so glad Witter won this fight...now we got Hatton v Witter to look forward to..i see Hatton being too busy for Witter..TKO mid way thru...a good fight
Hatton pretty much has to fight Witter now. I'm excited to see that since it's so personal between them. If Hatton doesn't fight him (after going back down to Junior Welter with his tail between his legs), it will be ducking.
Hatton's fighting Urango and Witter should be fighting Harris. I'd like to see both this fights before Hatton-Witter.

If Witter fought like he did in round 11 (letting everything come off his right jab), throughout the whole fight, he wouldn't of lost a round. He was the superior fighter..
