DiBella added that HBO, which has televised Martinez's past two fights, is interested in Martinez against Paul Williams, who is regarded by many as the No. 1 154-pound fighter in the world. http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=4193977
This is the fight that will probably happen instead of the fight between Paul and the Ukranian. Sergei is a total no-name over here in America. The WBC belt holds more prestige than the WBO even though both sanctioning bodies are corrupt. Martinez-Williams is a good fight too but Paul will take it. War Punisher.
Finally pdub!!!!! 154 should be his to take over, but after this fight if it ever happens he should fight DSantos that will be a AWESOME fight :boxing:
Ok HBO! I will wait to cancel my subscription! Nice match-up! Angulo-Cintron on this undercard, why not a triple header. Put Kirkland(legal troubles noted) on that card too. The night of the JMWs!
This is a true fight for boxing fans, would love to see this, 154 is really starting to hot up. I really like Martinez but I see P.Dub winning this one quite handily.
OK, But it will have to be a small, bet now, if Williams fights Santos, then Ill bet you a lot.
Santos KOs Williams fo sure!!!!!!!!!.
No problem man. I have Williams beating both.
Great, Am glad Vernon forrest got stripped because he wasnt interested in fighting anyone who isnt de la hoya,Mayweather or Mosley.
I think they should do this fight now no need to wait for anything else, since both fighter are not sign to another fight.
That was like 100 years ago at 147.
You know that people can improve right?
Anyways, i didnt said that Martinez will beat him for sure, but he have the skills the speed, the size, the power and specially tge lateral movement to make Williams look like a fool. That doesnt mean he will do it tho!!!!!!!
Lets have a bet if this fight is announced.
That sounds great. This is what PWill shoud be doing.
He sould get that Sergei fight as soon as posible so that a fight with Martinez is a Unification fight!!!!!!!
Martinez can make Williams look like a fool in the ring, so lets see. That is a interesting fight!!!!!
\i dunno man Martinez doesn't like pressure and combination punchers. You do remember what Margarito did to him don't you.
That does make some sence, I always figured that HBO would want that fight since they seem to have a thing for both fighters. Would be an interesting fight though, I could see Martinez giving Williams a lot of trouble but then again I could also see Williams giving Martinez a lot of problems.
Good fight I hope it gets made at some point.
