Bradley beats Witter 10 times out 10 anyway. I'd bet all the money I have on it.
In fact, all this 'Witter wasn't right on the night' stuff makes me sick. Witter boxed the first world-class opponent (well, second after Judah) of his career and couldn't get away with all the unorthadox stuff he used to produce. Bradly was just way too good for him in every department, and was actually quicker than Junior. I don't see what Witter can do differently.

We covered that before, witter dad having cancer etc..
I was interested in the reason Witter commented on HS re: dotting I's etc....
Also, Bradley is nothing special....
Witter beat Corley N'dou and Harris..He is World Class....

Partially agree, I felt pre-fight that Bradley may be able to knock Witter's game a little by using his one-two and movement. Still, never expected Witter to fail to adjust. Bradley had not shown a great deal prior to that, since that and in that actual fight. Interested to see how he gets on this Saturday, but he is not a world-beater.
i was surprised Bradley didn't get more credit for his performance vs Wiiter. from ringside he looked compact and very skilled in fundamentals, also he boxed the perfect strategic and tactical fight to beat a fighter like Witter
I believe Bradley would give Hatton an excellent contest- anyone else?

I believe Bradley would beat Hatton! When was the last time Hatton fought a young fast hungry strong puncher?
i disagree slightly on 'raw'. a 'raw' fighter would have been hit a LOT more than Bradley was vs Witter, Witter tends to pick raw fighters apart quite easily.
probably the single thing that impressed me most about him was how tight his defence was.
agree though that he was flattered slightly by Witter's inactivity during the fight- surely though some credit must go to Bradley for taking offensive opportunities away from Witter?

You have to credit Bradley because he got the win...BUT - he is not as good as that win suggests...imo.
Witter has turned into a "big punch" fighter, the rot began to set in against Kotelnik, he threw some good punches early on but Kotelnik just walked through them and went on to give Witter fits. Then Witter looked pedestrian against Lynes and Corley, looked average in beating Morua and I think the Harris win flattered him a bit and he went in looking to blast Bradley out.

He needs to use his Jab way more and also BOX, loads up way too much....

Exactly he seems to have negected his skill since he had that KO run.
So what were the i's and t's James ?
My post was based on what was said up here in South Yorkshire - months ago.
I am as frustrated as the next man over Junior's lack of activity as a fan of his.

I think the i's and t's he was referring to may have been in an offer of another fight between the 2 after Witter lost the belt. But for sure there's no way Hennessy could have a rematch clause in the original Bradley contract.
I just want to see Witter fight again, I was delighted when the Devon Alexander news came about but since then we havent heard anything. Is this McCloskey fight rumours, or is there actually some weight to it?
I've read on the current scene that Devon Alexander will be fighting the winner of Holt-Bradley, how reliable that source is I don't know but if it's true then I don't see Witter getting a WBC title fight this year, he may have to look elsewhere.
