    Witter should come over and beat the snot out of Paulie Malignaggi

        I do not think that HOpkins is ready to be facing a champion yet for some reason. I mean, first time boxing community hears about him is almost a year ago... I dont know sounds like hes being set up.

          I dont think so!!! He would be fighting for the WBC belt at 140 so how can that be a set up?

            Witter impresses with a fun UD or a late TKO.

              D-Hop will win a comfortable UD and shut Witter's mouth for good.

                D-hop isnt going to do that and i can see this fight been cagey and i wouldnt be surprise if Witter is robbed like they did Steve Forbes.

                I agree and I wouldn't be surprised if Witter gets screwed out of his title on a Golden Boy promoted card.

                  Witter looks to have two things he needs to do in this fight. First win impressively and also enertain the crowd and the audience on TV enough to want to see him again. If he can do that it seems he would have a better shot at fighting Hatton and getting bigger fights.

                    Very much looking forward to Junior's first fight of '08. Hopefully, this'll be a step up to bigger things. Meaning a Hatton or a Malignaggi.
