word is that harris has been making life difficult in negotiations. castillo is still ranked no 1, although that may soon change. he needs a way back in and he would jump at the chance to fight for a title after losing his purse. witters stock would go up if he beat castillo (prime time hbo). watch this space, this is a live option for junior at this point but nothing has been done by way of avenues of approaching this fight yet.
by the way, witter would demolish castillo and not do it in a hook n hold manner. castillo would come towards him and take a brutal punch and get flattened to the canvas.
harris was supposed to be for august/sept but hes being awkward. witter doesnt care who he fights. lets see what happens
The Witter-Harris fight has already been secured for a Sept 7 showing in the UK. No word if it's going to be televised in the states or not. According to Btalk.
Definitely. If Witter doesn't knock Castillo completely out in the first round it will be viewed as a really, really shitty performance.
funny how people react to witter. he is the wbc champ and fighters have been running scared for years. lets see what happens to Harris (KO2) and then we'll see what the people on this board say, although they probably won't give Junior any credit.
Witter is actually a pretty good fighter. i just cant see how anyone could be infatuated w/ his fighting style. Attraction's obsession with both his professional and personal life has me questioning his sexuality.
I like his style a lot. Ingle has his fighters do things not traditionally taught and it works and it works well. That said, I can see why it turns a lot of fans off.
it's certainly effective. at least hamed had devastating power and fought w/ aggression. witter throws few punches at a time and fades down the stretch. his power also seems to diminish after the first 5 rounds.
