    But i don't think that took anything out of Williams. He not a shot fighter. He's the same fighter. 1,000 punches a fight, low connect rate, while taking on some punishment.
    That's what we are going to find out on September 15th. It could very well be that PW isn't at all washed up and just has easily exploitable weaknesses against southpaws. I think he has lost something, although he looked sharper against Ishida than he has in a long time. Big step down in competition level though so hard to tell.

            Mayorga vs Forrest brought Mayorga close to a decade's worth of big money fights.

              Sven Ottke - Robin Reid

              Ottke won the fight but the manner in which he won transformed his entire career into a joke.

                And dude in your avatar exploded onto the scene with his controversial loss to Williams in the first fight.

                  He wasn't too bad in the first Martinez fight either. He got caught with a good shot in a 2 round fight. Then got schooled by a guy who nobody wants a part of.

                  I think a problem too is that his power isn't felt in yhe 154 division like it was ar 147. 147 was his best weight but nobody wanted anything to do with hom.

                  But you're right. We will find out in September. Biggest fight of his career coming up. We'll see if we get the Punisher that shocked a prime Margarito or the version that got schooled by Lara.

                      Brewster vs Lyakhovich was a brutal fight, ruined both fighters. Same thing for the Marquez vs Vazquez trilogy
