because he only wants to fight headliners. thats why he wont fight cintron right now. cintron hasnt headlined a show, yet. he is undercard material. he needs names on his resume.:boxing: goosen better work overtime to get this guy a fight in january or feburary. ike quartey would be a good match-up since he is moving down in weight. what yall suckas think?
btw, Pun will take on whoever comes out of the clottey, collazo, cintron love triangle. The ibf title would have a lil more meaning than a paper belt after that love triangle is all said and done. if berto becomes the mandatory for the ibf towards the end of 2008, punisher will be willing to fight this hbo posterboy and get a nice push with that victory.
no it doesn't make him tough. ANYONE will call out the big names .. because big names=big money .. it goes hand in hand
P-Will should shut the fuck up and just fight. if he would go out and beat other tough names (Cintron, Margarito again?, Clottey or Collazo) .. the top Welter's would have to fight him.
he's 25 and coming off his first title in July.
and if Kermit's a coward for crying .. don't duck him
fight him and take his title.
or else don't talk about him.
uh buddy, cintron mentioned williams name first. in fact he claimed williams is ducking him when cintron never brought up paul's name until that point. do your home work.
i explained why he should wait til marg becomes his mandatory. just look up.
collazo and clottey are fighting for the right to fight cintron.
look who those guys are clamoring for? cintron, not williams. what does that tell you? collazo is in line for a shot of the wba if he keeps winning and clottey is the #2 guy for the wbo, and they rush to fight for the ibf title(cintron). i wonder why? hmmm
it was a close fight.....marg wins last round then he is still champ look at the cards
oh i know, *****. dont act like i aint watcfhed the fihgt. it would have been a MD if paul pulled a DLH, thus preventing the biggest scre job of the year. i seen the fight 6 times. it was not close. marg's head was getting snapped back like a basketball. if paul aint got no power, marg would have bull rushed him like mayorga to forrest. marg respects PW's power.
ok respect this. margarito was going to duck williams until the wbo was going to strip him of his title if he fought cotto. thats the only reason he fought williams. he made this dude wait almost 2 years to get in the ring with him. i aint got no love for margarito after that. fuck him. if i was paul williams, i would say fuck him too. only reason to fight marg is if there is no other better fight available. thats what marg did. he only fought williams cuz there was no other fight available without him losing his belt. if marg is so good, he'll get his mandatory. respect that!
Great post.
It's true. Why give a dude a rematch that you made wait for ever and ever?
Williams does need to fight someone though. I'm still not sold on how good he is.
fighting marg is the right thing to do because he was the champ for a long time, and paul never had been. it is a respect issue. there was a time when respect mattered, not just pay days.

Don't think that makes P-dub tough, that's called I WANT A PAYDAY. Why do you think Glen Johnson is calling out Roy Jones.

exactly how i would have scored it. last i checked that is not a close fight. fighting margarito again is a step backwards unless margarito can put another one or two big Ws under him.

how is he scared? you act like it was a close fight.
it was a close fight. this wasnt the amatuers, quality of punches matter, not just number of touches. margs punches were worth a ton more.
it was a close fight just because it wasnt a split decision doesnt mean it was one sided williams was hurt on the latter rounds and marg was never hurt
williams was in control that whole fight. even when he was "hurt." guess what? he wasnt close to going down either and he never did a chicken dance. marg looked like a racoon at the end of the fight. he weas the one wearing sunglasses at the post fight presser. like Lefthooktothebody said "williams swept the first 6 rounds and marg won 2-3 rounds in the last 6 rounds." explain to me how it was close again? gimmie some reasons too:owned:
Paul swept the first 7 rounds. At that point he lost about 2 or 3 rounds after the 7th. Get over it.

the guy wont rematch margarito hes scared still he is quite a monster and if hes looking for some big names he should move up in class when hes not so intimidating
how is he scared? you act like it was a close fight.
At this rate, Margarito and Williams might as well rematch each other sooner than later. The only name I heard linked to a future Margarito fight is Golden Johnson (whose name alone gives him a good shot at a porno career once he's done with boxing). If that's as good as it gets for the time being, then just fight Williams in January or some shit.
Clottey's bitching that nobody wants to fight him. Collazo sees the road to the WBA title as the path of least resistance (even though he gets pummeled at the end, whether Cotto's still champ or it's a Shane rematch). I had to laugh at his hack of a PR rep bragging on Luis' interview on another site, where he all but admitted that he won't fight Clottey. "there's no money in the fight." why is that, luis? Your own promoter didn't bother with a bid.
If Williams-Margarito II gets signed for early next year, then I believe Cintron-Clottey would get inked soon thereafter. If so, then you honestly can't ask for any better series of fights than the welterweight division not only has to offer, but is actually making happen.
I also think a Berto-Zab Judah finds its way into the mix sometime next year.
but back on target, with all of the waiting, Williams is really cutting his options down to a bare minimum. It's really down to Clottey or a Margarito rematch.
pauly was screaming for margarito and other fighters, now he beats margarito and waits, either he's looking for a payday thats not there or he's still busted up from the margarito fight
williams should start getting title defense and knock heads and stay busy he is not at the top yet, just cuz he beat margarito doesn't mean he can now fight cotto, mayweather just like that, he still got to fight many nore fighters and convinve the world he is here to stay, he shoul be b4 the end of this year, if williams is looking just for prie fights he ain't gonna last long
Margarito would have had a hard time fighting Mayweather to begin with... only Cotto was willing to give him a shot to jump up in the division. Williams isn't going to get any better treatment.
I really think Collazo would be a good fight to keep his status up.
Maybe Clottey, but I think he is better than Collazo, and has no more name status so...
I think Cotto will fight him, but he is obviously tied up right now. His best bet is to wait for the Cotto/Mosley fight, hope Cotto wins, and pray that Cotto wants to fight him instead of Mayweather, but that's not going to happen anyway, so...
You know a fighter's prospects are shitty when his best bet is praying for the impossible to happen.
