Steve Bunce On Witter vs Bradley & Hatton Feud

[fep70]

6m 30s to 7m Bunce says Witter deserves "full respect" for taking on an opponent as dangerous, as the unbeaten Bradley.

"The Hitter" was making a MANDATORY defence.

[thechosen2010]

Witter's a good boxer....but Bradley is awesome.

I'd like to see Khan fight Hatton or Witter too.

[hazzo123]

steve bunce knows nothing about boxing his predictions are always wrong

[mickvandam69]

hahaha what a twat junior witter is!!! he had his chance to show he was worthy of a hatton fight, and he got his arse absolutely kicked :D

[ravingdave900]

witter and hatton both lost. now make the fight happen b4 they both retire...

[delirious44]

Hatton and Khan are treating Witter and Thaxton like they both have the aids virus BOTTOMLINE Eubank beat Benn Lewis beat Bruno Hamed beat Robinson to prove they are the best in britain I NEVER HEARD ,TYSON HOLYFIELD HAGLER LEONARD CHAVEZ DELAHOYA HOPKINS EVER SAY I WONT FIGHT A OPPONENT , WHY WOULD ANY BOXER SAY THAT IF THEY KNOW THERE THE BEST . IF ARSENAL SAY WHERE NOT BOTHERING TO PLAY LIVERPOOL BECAUSE WE WOULD WIN ANYWAY SHOULD THEY GET THE 3 POINTS? RICKY HATTON AND HIS FANS ARE JOKERS

[rizzi2007]

DELIRIOUS44..you know nothing about how the game of boxing operates! if hatton fights everyone who call for him, it would be a never ending story to reach to the top. hatton has already fought people at witters level at the start of his career and now does not need to fight him, that why hes on a bigger scale in terms of challenge and profits. its like ARSENAL PLAYING FULHAM 100 times and rejecting LIVERPOOL, why would you do that. that why hatton is fighting PAC MAN!!!

[oasis4ever92]

i totally agree with Hatton's view to ignore Junior Witter, he isn't in Hattons class. Business-wise it would make money, but why would Ricky want to give Witter a pay day? All he's done his whole career is slag Ricky off, saying he could beat him with his eyes closed...a load of bollocks, Hatton is seeling out at the MGM grand against the pound for pound king. I dont know who Witter's last fight was.

They both know it wont happen know

[delirious44]

you have proved  you have no sense of boxing history.mike tyson once said fighters shouldn't say they dont want to fight other fighters.all you hatton fans say is he would beat junior easily,like that is reason enough not to fight him.hatton talks about being a great he isn't even the greatest in the u.k,boxing is a one on one sport whos the better fighter , not who sells the most tickets,i'll never be a hatton fan

[oasis4ever92]

whos number one in the uk then?? Cos i couldnt see Witter beating him. he's fighting the pound for pound king so he obviously is the best in UK

[KazzyChumeh]

hatton will smash his boat up bruv...r u dumb

[moelu4]

hatton has ducked witter, no question about that

[IrelandRaven]

hatton fought eamonn magee when he was his most dangerous rival and wtter was just a decent prospect, and of course he fought mayweather, so why the fuck would he duck an unknown moron like witter

[moelu4]

Hatton only fought Mayweather for the money... The fight is never going to happen so no point in debating it but the fact is Witter offered to fight Hatton on numorous occasions and Hatton refused to fight him

[GRAHAMER001]

because hatton brought money to the table that witter never could. and hatton feels wittor doesnt deserve any of it after trash talking him for soo long. and hattons fighting pacquiao and beat malignaggi, wittor gets beat of an american prospect.

[hulterbusy]

he aint ducked him bruv!!!!

he didnt want to give him a shot!!!  there is a big difference!!!

Witter was an ok fighter but he was a twat aswell!! Hatton knew he would smash him but didnt want to give him the pay day!!

look @ Hatton now.....Pac man!!!

where is Witter? nuff said

[greeny707619]

so true , witter will beat hatton .

i think paul mccloskey and kell brook could give him a good go too . but witter deserves a shot at hatton . witter is loads better

[garyswinburne1]

As much as i want hatton to win and as hatton is a good fighter, i somehow think whitter will just pinch it!

[LLAdam2k8]

Witter is shit and looked to far ahead against Bradley and got spanked for it! I hate the way he fights aswell! No class

[westside197]

junior should just bite hatton

[MichaelFrances]

Brilliant Bunce as usual. How can you disagree with this man?

[SmelOdies]

I like Bunce a lot as personality. He's witty, engaging, but he knows fuck-all about boxing, and he's heavily biased in favor or British boxers. Having said that, our US commentators are by and large inferior to him in terms of presentation.

[kongbhoy]

i he hinks all brits can b world champs bt hes a legend! 'gary lockett has a harder single punch than kelly pavlik' qoute of the yr from buncy!

[LukePettit]

everyone is late for steve bunce.  Every week it happens.

[radurgan]

junior shitter

[dessieb123]

should be 'witter eats humble pie'

[Hattonsucksdick]

Fatton sucks big balls

[D36YLDJOHN]

hatton would beat witter but witter is a big threat

[thereds66]

exactly, I mean could you imagine a fight between witter and mayweather. I know hatton lost, but witter would be killed

[jrwatf]

Witter is toilet. Trying to make out after the Bradley fight that he did enough to win. He was so average it was untrue. Idiot.

[johnconnolly111]

Im a British boxing fan, I dont wanna see Hatton vs Witter...Witter aint on the same level

[wricey]

surely we should get behind all our british fighters , after all we lose at football , rugby and other sports , our boxers are some of the best out there though , i love both hatton and witter , witter just had a really off night cuz his dad is ill or something

[fedormmagod]

Boxing is saving itself (in terms of money and interest) by concentrating on 'celebrity' match ups which don't benefit the sport.

[fedormmagod]

Hatton V Mayweather 2 will more than likely go ahead in Spring 09 at Wembley London.

It is a disgrace that:

A.both these fighters will not face their number 1 challenger in their respective divisions (Cotto and Witter).

B.the fact that these fighters are allowed to engage in a money spinning event that by and large has no importance in the Boxing world.

It's hard to make arguments for Boxing when things like this happen.

[superflybobby1987]

im sorry ......witter is still ricky's main challenger?

[edfen]

Fuck witter he is wank

[wannasaysummit]

Fact is Hatton will not fight Witter because he will lose simple. He wants to keep his fight career going. Good luck to him, but he certainly isn't the people's champ he markets himself as.

[chestermolester33]

hahaha yeah, and witter deserves a shot cuase he cant even beat a blown up superfeather weight...hahah bradley was still good, but witter is a better boxer, quicker more experience, and power and size...he got SCHOOLED, now imagine what hatton would have done to the poor lad...witter is a puff....hatton is the real peoples champ, not only to people in the UK, but here in the states as well..he knows how to drink cold beer and is just cool as hell

[wricey]

apparently witters dad is dying or something and couldnt get into the fight , if you see witters other fights when he is on form he is up there at the top

[1010100906]

excuses excuses.

i love how junior witter called setanta "santana" when on setanta. haha

[wendalwilsonrhoads]

unfortunately people, mayweather likes his money and theres more money in a de la hoya rematch so dont hold your breath if you want to see him fight margarito or cotto

[fedormmagod]

If Mayweather fights Margarito, Cotto & Williams inside 2 years I'll call him Great.

[fedormmagod]

bobby the difference is Manny is fighting and beating all the top guys at his weight right now!! Hey I'm a huge Floyd, fan the guy has sick skills but Fuck his fights are so carefully chosen for his style, & the guy is all about money, nothing else, this is fine but the man is going around calling himself the greatest. lol, Greats become Legends by seeing off all challenges, especially the ones in which the odds are not stacked in their favour i.e Leonard stepping to Duran & Hagler & Hearns etc.

[superflybobby1987]

The difference is,floyd wins fights convincingly.Pacman has fought the best in terms of legends barrerra and morales,each well past their best days.And IMO he lost both his fights to marquez.

[fedormmagod]

Mayweather & De La Hoya can't fool the Boxing Community! Mayweather is a disgrace to the hottest division in Boxing for a long long time. Fight Cotto you bum & leave the Little Wrestlers alone (Hatton), lol & the Big Wrestlers (Big Show).

[fedormmagod]

Who says Mayweather is pound 4 pound King?? Oscar De La Hoya's Ring Magazine!! Because the real Boxing fans know it's Manny Pac-Man.

[superflybobby1987]

lol,manny just eeked past marquez.Floyd IS number 1,they invented p4p list,ergo theirs is the original and most important.

[fedormmagod]

Honestly Hatton is a top guy outside the ring and he is a tough competitor inside but he is ridiculously overrated!! He has no jab & limited skills and he gives more hugs than fuckin Barney!!

[dieallday]

omg that is so true he gives more hugs than barney lol

but he is overrated but he sell so he will always will make money

[karlos81]

Not as huggy as Witter last night and Hopkins makes Hatton look like Pernell Whitiker.

[fedormmagod]

Ricky can't handle it with the top Welters it's no joke it's the truth.... Cotto, Margarito, Williams, Mosely, DLH & Judah would all whip Ricky easily!! I think Mallinaggi will give Ricky problems at Light Welter.

[fedormmagod]

Nobody said he is the best fight out there!! But the matter is who want's to see Floyd give Ricky another whooping?? Real fans don't we want Floyd v Cotto!! C'mon Duran did'nt run from anyone the guy was beating up men when he was 15, the man took a few weeks notice and fought one of the greatest fighters of all time in Tommy Hearns, Duran ran from nobody.

[superflybobby1987]

can just get this right?Hatton loses to the p4p kings a 5 weight class champion unbeaten,with skill every 1 admires,with no help from poor reffin,then witter loses to timothey bradley,an unknown quantity, who looks nowhere enar floyd's level,and you witter cock suckers still think he's the best match out there?

[fedormmagod]

Migual Cotto could easily drop to 140 & make Ricky his lady!

[superflybobby1987]

imsorry,cotto easily drop to 140? did you see his fights at 140?he looked sod rained it was untrue.

[fedormmagod]

I don't care if Witter Loses 5 in a row.....He is Hatton's arch rival & the British Public deserve to see this fight happen.....

[philthepowertaylor13]

wa an idiot like he though that witter would beat bradley and now hes proven wrong because bradley killed witter lol

[brakie1978]

I think most people though Witter would win it mate. Wether you love him or hate him.

Not the first time a commentator has got it wrong.......

[fuckingbitchcuntfuck]

there's only one junior witter

there's only one junior witter

he's clownin around,he's gettin knocked down

living in a hatton wonderland

[fedormmagod]

thers's only 1 Vicky Fatten

there's only 1 Vicky Fatten

He chased Floyd's ghost, Got knocked into ringposts, got up but got Ko'd again!

[stegovredds]

2nd rate, sheep shaging, wank boxer, if he'd of fought in my back garden, i'd draw the blinds. glad he lost, even to a yank

[killallthetalibanis]

That fight with a miss-match Junior Witter whooped his ass the judges were stupid completley stupid that was a clear unamimous decision not a split one stupid biased judges what did Bradley actually do for an offensive except standing in the middle like an idiot doing nothing fuck sake what an embarissment....

[arsenal123454]

hold on a secong fedorthefag, your actually irish arnt you, im irish, have lived in london for years, and i know from all of my friends here that hatton is well liked, hatton will never been knon as a ducker but a guy that went out and fought gtthe best, not a guy that made a career shite talking and not having the skills to ack it up, hatton was giving a terrible night by cortez, watch mayweather cheating, i knew from round 2 hatton wudn win, because mayweather was not getting stopped 4 dirt!

[agt155]

Froch doesn't deserve a shot at Calzaghe though. Froch has beaten no one of note, his best victory to date came against a 54yr old Robin Reid.

[Mclips86]

u a bitch

[rkent06]

im british and I dont like witter at all, this loss proves he is not in his league. Steve Bunce is right boxing is not always about who is the best and who on paper deserves a shot, this fight would not sell in america and hatton is a big name in america now.

[RespectChamps]

That's why Witter doesn't deserve,and didn't deserve by the past,a shot with Hatton!Witter is a paper champ and has a damn shitty voice and a moron head!

[Mclips86]

lol

[fedormmagod]

Hatton is a big name in America ya your right but he won a fight with Collazo that he really lost and Floyd Mayweather made a clown out of him, the guy is a chump! Let's be real Cotto, Margarito, Mosely etc would KO Hatton, I don't care if Witter lost 5 in a row Hatton is and has ducked him for a long time & Hatton will be remembered by the British Fans for being a bitch.

[Mclips86]

u a bitch

[RespectChamps]

he ain't lost against Collazo!it was a close fight,that's all!Ricky is a lightweight,not a welterweight you know...Witter is a moron,and ain't deserve actually a shot with Hatton even if he's a brit fighter,Hatton is a class above,he beated collazo,tszyu,castillo,urango,­Vince philips...Who did Witter"shitty voice" beat except a washed up Harris glass jaw??

[manorkt3]

bell end...hatton fights at 140 he owns that division hes no bitch

[romeomalasig]

Yes Witter loss Timothy Bradley is the real deal

[skitzomandan]

good luck witter

[HouseOldSkoolRaver]

Junior the shitter witter not in Hattons league! hahahahahahahahahaha

[hoodtop]

what else is on tv this witter fight is shite the U S A dont want to see this

[harrysan1983]

I hope Witter wins tonight, and gets respect he deserves. Hatton should stop ducking and fight him. To be honest I think Hatton would win which is why i'm so disapointed in him for ducking this fight for so long. If Hatton retires without beating Witter then his legacy would be tarnished (in my opinion)

[arsenal123454]

hatton would certainly fucken kill witter, theres no doubt about it, witters not agile enough to withstand hattons constant pressure! i cant stand witter!

[karlos81]

Witter had nothing until last year ok.

Since Witter won his belt Hatton has fought Castillo, Mayweather (lost) fighting Lazcano as a get back fight then Mallinaggi and Mayweather again.

How is Ricky avoiding Witter?

I do agree they should fight.

[RespectChamps]

Hatton ain't ducked Witter!Hatton just don't give a fuck about Witter,he is a paper champ,he beated a washed up Harris,and???Plus Witter disrespected Hatton many times so they logically have not found an agreement!Now Witter prove definitely his limit against a good fighter in his prime!Hatton fought floyd Mayweather,one of the greatest of all time,you really think he was afraid about fighting Witter??No,he just don't give a fuck!

[fedormmagod]

What do you think Roberto Duran would of done if some clown kept calling him out? I know, he would shut the clown up for good! Aint Duran Ricky's hero? Anyway this is why Boxing is the way it is! too many Champions at the Weight Levels & too many easy Picking's. Ricky should enjoy beating up guys like Lazcano but he know's that the minute he steps to Welter again he is as good as a lamb being thrown in a lion's den.

[superflybobby1987]

lol,you don't know your boxing do you,otherwise you'd know duran avoided ken buchanan like the plague.

[karlos81]

??????

Didnt a 21yo Duran give Buchanans only stoppage in a 20yr career?

Not the same Dyran who fought, Leonard, Hearns, Hagler, Bentiez, Moore, Simms, Barkley all 10-50lbs above his best fighting weight?

You sure mate.

[fedormmagod]

Well said Karlos 81 I could'nt believe that guy superflybobby talking shit about a legend!!! lol. Duran fought everyone, the guy would fight his mother if she called him out.

[superflybobby1987]

hmm would that be the fight in which he won by lkow blowing ken buchanan,and got away with every trick in the book?he wouldn't give hima rematch,cus buchanan was givin him the fits.

[karlos81]

Duran was a mile ahead Ken wanted out its that simple.

[superflybobby1987]

jajaja sure.

[karlos81]

I now agree they shouldnt.

[narudduran]

yup i know i've been w8in 4 it since 2004.

and i don't think it would wreck hattons career if he lost (as long as it wernt a 1 second ko), sure, it would be a setback but to be the best you must beet the best. the best 2 other lightwelters are mallignaggi and torres in my opinion and witter has the speed of maliggnaggi and the power of tores.

if hatton dont fight him then they both lose out

[narudduran]

i'm a big hatton fan but i'm begginin to think that he is avoiding witter unfortunatly

[78rossco]

he is ,and he talks of this homecoming fight,well what would could of been a bigger homecoming than fighting witter? all the british fans want it.

[cuntyballs07]

Hatton has been ducking him for years FACT

[DirkDigglerV3]

What people always leave out is the fact that Hatton signed to fight Witter years ago.

[zooboo55]

It's very simple, Forget all about the money\greed\hype orientated shows,they are staged (light spars) .ODH vs PBF 2 and PBF vs RH 2 are in many ways fraudulent non boxing braindead fans need apply only. Can any one give any goddam real validation why either of these fights should happen bar the hard currency factor. 1(R.Hatton) Vs 2(J.Witter) at 140 is a Real fight that the switched on boxing world community want to watch, as would 1 Vs 2 at 147.

[alibumayeee]

thanks for the posts wooddddddya, loving it

[james0504]

Good interview. Witter won't get to fight Hatton until he enters the higher ranks of boxing that includes names like Castillo, Pacquiao, and Mayweather. Bunce made a good point when idenified boxing as a business. Witter should play the game just like Cotto and unify the division to limit Hatton's options.

[DirkDigglerV3]

Spot on. You dont see Cotto crying like a bitch about Mayweather all the time. He just gets on with it and will get the fight sooner or later.

[atomant66613]

james0504 none of the fighters you mentioned witter fighting are at the same weight as Him!

Castillo was due to be Bradley's last opponent but couldnt make weight AGAIN so will probably end his career at welterweight.

Mayweather is also a welter and pacquiao has only just stepped up to lightweight and is yet to fight at that weight.

Witter would jump at the chance to fight any of them though if they were offered.

[ibar78]

Steve Bunce is wrong. Hatton IS ducking Witter! It's obvious to all.

[killallthetalibanis]

Isnt that what Mayweather done aswell its just like you could say hes ducking Khan fucksake dude learn what your saying first you gotta be known to fight a boxer like Hatton, Mayweather or Oscar De La Hoya all to do with reputation..... Next fight i want is Khan and Witter head to head in America id love it!!.

[narang]

ricky and his people know he could never beat witter. thats why it aint happened. thats all there is to it.

steve bunce talking shit. this fight would do big business here. bigger than any other oponent at 140.

[karlos81]

lol.

Throw one bomb then hold, tire after 7rds thats Witter always has been.

[wasimkhan321]

great video thanks

[dusky07]

good video but i hate steve bunce, he talks out his arse all the time
