Witter wins on his return to ring

Britain's Junior Witter marked his return to the ring with a third-round knockout of Victor Hugo Castro.

It was the Bradford fighter's first bout since losing his WBC light-welterweight belt to American Timothy Bradley at the York Hall in May.

The 34-year-old Witter had his opponent on the canvas in the second round with a solid left hook to the body.

In the third round Witter soon had the Argentine on the floor again for what proved to be the final time.

The victory handed Witter his 37th win in 39 fights, as he looks to revive his boxing career and set up a rematch with Bradley, who he lost to in a split decision.

The unexpected defeat robbed him of a potential clash with fellow Briton Ricky Hatton.
