      Tim deserved the win and all the credit..... but Junior was not all there.

      the word "exposed" is hideously overused... thats not what we saw last night..... we saw a quality fighter lacking the focus required to see off a stern challenge from a young and tough fighter in the ascendent.

      disappointing..... but it doesnt make me doubt that Junior has the talent to hang with the best 140lbers..... because i know he does.
      you know he does huh!!! how do you know that exactly? because he was completely owned by bradley, and will have to win half a dozen fights just to get another shot at an alphabet title, then maybe the same again before a shot at malignaggi, torres, or hatton. hatton must be pissing himself at this ****, witter has never been on his level, he just gets the attention because they have a personal dislike and so people who DONT KNOW WHAT THEYRE TALKING ABOUT think it will be a good grudge match!

      now witter shut the **** up and fight Ajose Olugsegan you little *****!

        Witter got EXPOSED!!! You must feel like the biggest fool in the world.....All the weeks of trash talk we had to endure from this clown, and he gets his long awaited US Broadcast debut and he flops like a fish in water..... I don't think we'll be seeing anymore of this fool, I just hope he finds the biggest rock he can and nestle himself under it.......LOL Junior LOL CLOWN

          Witter should not be fighting guys like Tim Bradley, especially at his age. Tim Bradley is an example of a high-risk, low reward fighter. I mean who the hell is Tim Bradley? Was he even a top 10 junior welterweight? I'll try not to make excuses for Witter, but the 9 month lay-off and the change of opponents obviously affected him. And Witter didn't seem to motivated for this fight, I felt like Witter should of pushed for a fight against D-Hop and still should pursue that match.

            It's troubling that Witter doesn't acknowledge he was garbage that night.

            Maybe he is past it.

              Witter was not there at all from the 1st bell, he looked like he couldnt be arsed, the punch that put him down was a ****ing peach tho, the only shock was that it was a split decision, personally i had Bradley by 3 rounds. There is a case for saying Witter was unlucky .... but only an academic one in the fact that had the referee deducted a point for Bradley being a dirty headbutting bastard then the final judges card would have read 113 - 113 so the fight would have been a draw and Witter would have retained his title ..... IMO that would have been a travesty ... not so much cos he was **** but cos he really looked like he couldnt be bothered and wasnt focussed.

                I've always respected Witter and felt sorry for him when he couldn't get Hatton to fight him when he clearly deserved the chance. I think he'll be back but he's gonna have to start from scratch. Not only did he lose but he looked bad in the fight w/ Bradley.

                  Witter was never genuinely a 'world class' boxer, which is why Hatton never felt he HAD to fight him. The Hitter is decent, and perfectly deserving of the WBC title he had, but I hope people realise now that Hatton would have decimated him.

                  Look at the Bradley fight and now swap Bradley for Hatton. Not only would have Witter have lost on workrate and aggression (as he did), he would have got KTFO.

                    Does Witter always look like that? He looked like he didn't really know how to fight.

                      I'm watching the fight right now and he didn't even look like he was trying in the last rounds. I understand his style is to be patient then find openings for massive punches but.. He didn't look like he had any heart toward the end of that. If there is anyone who's seen a lot of his fights? If so was he gassed at the end, is he getting old or was Tim Bradley simply way better than anyone knew?
