    But...

    It appears from what I read (have nots een his last two fight) that he has faded in his last 2 fights, this problem is going to have to be fixed if he is going to beat a guy like Miguel Cotto!
    ISTR his penultimate fight was okay, but he was sluggish and listless in his last bout and admitted so himself.

    Wait... his penultimate bout was against N'Dou, wasn't it? No, he was cool then, but he damaged his hand in the 7th(?) and did, to be fair, seem to run out of steam. But for the first half of the fight he was in control and KDed N'Dou twice.

      Okay, saw it all, scored it about 116-112 for Judah. Not a great bout, Witter's chin seemed fine. Just a shame he didn't have a punch, otherwise they'd have been saying he was picking Zab off. Though Zab clearly wasn't fearful of the power he had at that stage.

      The 11th was a bit shameful for Witter, but he stood centre for nearly all the 12th... I gave Witter the 12th, actually.

      Most irritating thing was Sheridan and more of his hometown parochial bull****. The way he was talking you'd think they'd cross over a time barrier into the middle ages, not just crossed the Atlantic. Silly old ****er.

        Witter wasnt half the fighter he is now when he fought Zab Judah, and i dont even rate Witter now!! He fought like a clown but Judah wasnt good enough to change his game plan.

        I think everyone expected Judah to blow away Witter away. Witter didnt run, Judah just didnt know how to fight him and people made excuses.

        Witter vs Judah would be a lot more interesting now.
