Witter's chasing Hatton pay-day

[The Hammer]

Hatton can make more money fighting Malignaggi, so why should he fight someone like Witter?

Witter's opposition has been rather ordinary. He needs a win over Torres, D. Hopkins or Malignaggi to better establish himself. I read JL Castillo is in a WBC eliminator, to determine Witter's next mandatory. Castillo vs. Witter might be interesting - and the result might show that Castillo isn't so shot after all!

Actually that could be a pretty wicked fight, Witter vs Castillo.

witter castillo would be a much more interesting fight.

witter wouldn't/couldn't win it.

I can see why ricky doesn't want to line juniors pockets, and all this talk of the 'fight the fans want to see' just isn't true. If you actually think that, then you don't know boxing.

why? Castillo is practically shot .. he couldn't beat any of the current 140 champs out there. hell he struggled mightely with Herman Ngoudjo. no way he takes Malignaggi Torres and especially not Witter.

and after getting blown out by Hatton in June .. why would Castillo be in position to land another title shot?


"witter wouldn't/couldn't win it." .. really? you think Castillo could take Witter .. I hope you don't put actual money on that .. Castillo is finished as an elite fighter.

How am I stretching?

35 not that old? in boxing its pretty old.

minus Shane Mosley, Winky Wright and Bernard Hopkins how many fighters today are fighting at a high level in there mid 30's?

not many

oh please Mel you can defend Kostya all you want, but the best names on his resume are Sharmba Mitchell 2x, Zab Judah and an ancient Julio Cesar Chavez .. and thats a fact. its a good resume but gimme a break, he retired at 31-2. unified the 140 division .. whoopte ****ing do

I never said anything about Kostya being brave or not

i said Hatton waiting till Kostya was 35 to fight him isn't brave

and yeah you can bring up Hatton's ****ty promoter holding him back and giving him weak names to fight, but why didn't Hatton do the smart thing and try to leave ASAP?

well first off unifying the division is a big deal. shows ur lack of knowledge. and last time i checked if zab is not big deal on a resume how come your boy witter got beat 118-110???????????? who the hell has witter beat to run your mouth like he is as good as kostya , hatton and the like????????????? i could give 2 ****s about kostya, but at least he beat zab, wait not just beat, but totally destroyed him, and ricky beat kostya, not beat, but whooped. yet ur boy junior was a disgrace in the zab fight and got outclassed. he was to much of a ***** to even mix it up. he rarely threw, and stayed outside for the entire fight! zab even said something about how he did not know this was a track meet or some **** since jw was running all fight. gimme a break with your biased view. ur not seeing any part of the picture so i will let you in on a secret, witter has nothing, is not very good, and has not any draw at all. he can not even fill a 3k seat venue. fact is that u are underestimating kostya. he is a sure hof'er, and possible atg. hatton will be a hof'er,and what about witter? witter will be ****, just like your unknowledgeable post.

castillo got hit with a great body shot,and he is finished? that can happen any time to a fighter. castillo is faded, but not finished. he can beat the top guys maybe not every time, but he still has an upset or 2 left in him! castillo has faced way better fighters than witter, and i would not be surprised if he beat witter!
u talk witter up like he is a god and can beat every one! yet he again lost to zab! u talk **** about atg fighter in tyszu, and castillo not being that great or shot, but witter is great?????????????whateva, your clueless,and i am done! cheers!

Why is it Hatton's fault that Junior Witter has made no money and has no fans?

Dude should change his name to Junior Bitter.
