Frietas still has ambitions himself, no way will he want to fight Witter. He will get into the Castillo / Casamayor / Corrales / Diaz mix at Lightweight.
I think Urkal is down as active because his last fight was in October (recent). He did announce his retirement, but who know many fighters change their mind.
What does Witter do after Branco ???
I don't see anything wrong with him taking a fight with Lovemore N'Dou of course he has a sollid chin and has been in with a lot of the devisions danger men a good performance and he will send out a real message, a bad performance and he still comes out with 10 rounds good expireance against a respected fighter.
Just noticed Urkal was still ranked 5th by the WBA last month

2. RICHARD HATTON G.B
3. FLOYD MAYWEATHER USA

5. OKTAY URKAL TUR

souleyman mbaye wont fight witter till after he gets his seconds shot at harris as he wont want to risk his #1 position. I have seen mbaye fight about four times on eurosport - good fighter fast hands and a better punch than his record indicates - its just that he prefers to pile up points by peppering his opponents with lighter punches and outboxing them
