I'm always stating that I think Williams is over rated. I do think that and because of his weak defense. Other than that he has many good things going on for him and maybe one day he will be one of the greats! One of the good things I appreciate is, he willing to fight anybody. I think he really thinks he is the best out there. I truly believe that Margarito and his team doesn't think that they are the best out there. That's why he is avoiding him, along with many other fighters and teams avoiding Williams. I'm going to start backing Williams but I still think he owes Quintana a rematch! Of course if he thinks he is the best.
Everyone is trully ducking paul, he is the most destructive fighter after gamboa. can you blame the rest of the division?
i got several doubts about that.... gamboa hasnt face anyone yet of the caliber of the guys that paul has fought.....
i do think that paul is being avoided... not the same with gamboa....:boxing:
I think it's very hard to deny that Paul Williams could fight at a higher weight class. In my eyes, if a guy can make a low weight by any non illegal means and be a "big guy" at that weight, more power to him. In reality, though, Paul Williams is not seen by most true welterweights or their handlers as a 147 lb. fighter. He's seen as a big man starving himself to make welterweight so he can beat on smaller men. Honestly, the risk is always high facing a boxer who most agree is at least solid, who also brings such a large reach/size advantage with him. When that fighter doesn't also bring a huge heaping of money and accolades if he's beaten the risk vs. reward formula dictates that, in a stacked division like welterweight, that they make smart business decisions. It's the policy of simple economics that Floyd loved to stress. Paul Williams is almost an unnecessary risk for most 147 lb. fighters and I know some promoters and boxers are just waiting for him to leave the division.
I don't think anybody fears him, they're just all greedy bastards who are cherrypickin for $ rather than glory. Pwill is just hungry to fight whoever's out there and whoop some ass.
Hell I'd hope so..I'd question Cotto's confidence after he beats Margarito to not accept a rubber match!.
and It took 13 rounds and 1 Loss to beat Quintana..Don't claim you're bein ducked when a man wants the trilogy to prove he can beat you AGAIN!!
quintana is doing tuneups to build his confidence, don't mention him wanting to fight williams until he steps up his competition. whens the last time someone who got kod in rd1 got an immediate rematch?
Margarito Cotto Clottey Forrest Berto Strum Kessler Taylor Froch Dawson Calzaghe Hopkins
All ducking Williams :)
Don't forget Godzilla and Reptar, those bastards are bad!
