Woods: "Witter Can't Hang With Hatton"

[jack_the_rippuh]

Rubbish.

Witter won four of the first six rounds against Judah, Judah won four of the first six against Mayweather. Based on that alone, he lives with Mayweather. He doesn't beat Mayweather, and isn't near as good as Mayweather, but he lives with him just based on that alone!

He beat N'Dou more impressively that Cotto did, based on that alone he lives with Cotto.

What do you consider "living" with someone?

Being competitive, not being blown away or dominated. He couldn't beat Mayweather, but Mayweather certainly couldn't coast it (he could after four or five rounds - Witter runs out of steam) - he'd have to be good.

I'd like to see Witter against Mayweather or Cotto. Due to stylistic match-ups I think he'd have a far better chance with them than he would against Hatton. (Note - I am NOT saying that Witter would win, or saying that Hatton is better than Floyd/Miguel... I'm talking about stylistic match-ups).

I agree he'd have a slightly better chance against a Cotto, who ofcourse isn't as polished as Hatton. Witter has the ability to potshot any gaps in Cotto's defense or land his attacking counter shots before Cotto's get to him (punch while Cotto punches and use his speed), and Cotto's chin is shaky.

We understand what you're saying, *****.
No need to get all scared and say, "I'm not saying that.."
We flame people around here for playing *****.

Anyway, I agree with you.
Hatton would muscle him if they fought.

I know, I was just waiting for the "yo, you're a Brit ***, LMAO, you're saying Fatboy ****ton is a better fighter than Floyd, LMAO, LOL, Pwn! Pwn! Pwn!" And that's just if my dad logs on.

What I like about Cotto's chin is that he can be hurt pretty easily, but once you've got him hurt you seem to need a neutron bomb to get him out of there. Gets hurt with one punch from Torres... then takes about fifty million flush shots and still doesn't go down.

But he wouldn't beat Cotto.

Grow TFU and unban me.

ROFL, Witter wouldn't be able to compete against PBF. Witter has as good a shot against Hatton as he does against Cotto. So to say that Witter can "Live With" Cotto would have to translate that he can live with Hatton.

You refer to mutual opponents that Cotto and Witter had however you dismiss the mutual opponent Hatton and Cotto had. Cotto's domination of Maussa was more complete than Hattons was.
