Williams Pre-Fight Jitters Posing Many Questions

[Joartcc3]

Well its only normal to have nerves before your 1st title fight id be more worried if he wasnt!!! This should be good!!!

I agree.

Come fight night we will both see fine boxers in a possible war.

Boxing needs more fights like this.

awol for what exactly bro? if its training/sparring? we might have a problem but if its for press conferences then thats understandable IMO

You can say alot of things about Williams or alot of things about Margarito killing him but no one in this world is going to convince me that Paul Williams is some nervous wreck. One thing you can definatly tell about this guy is he is genuine. You can tell that this guy doesnt fear anyone out there. He's a street cat and he's good a hood mentality while also being a sumpremely confident guy. We must not forget that he's the one who called Margarito out when no one was mentioning his name and there was nothing fake about that. He's the one who sparred with Margarito and stilll wanted him. What could turn him into a nervous wreck all of assudden? That is not going to happened. He might win, he might when big, or he might get Cintroned but it aint going to have nothing to do with nerves. This cat not only believes that he's better then Margarito but he believes he's the best one out there between 147 & 154 and nothing will change that but a loss. Dont read too much into the other stuff. He may be having problems but nerves and confidence arent one of them

well personally i hope paul "PUNISHES" margarito so we can stop having naieve fans believing arum's publicity hype machine once and for all!

It's becoming more than apparent that Paul Williams is feeling the effects of this upcoming big title fight with Antonio Margarito and it seems that something is troubling "The Punisher". From his Open Media workouts that were canceled to a near hospital visit on the island for reasons still unknown, it seems all is not 100% in Camp Williams. Far be it from Pound4Pound to come to any unwarranted assumptions, but it will be interesting to see how Williams looks when the bell rings for the fight he has been shouting from the rooftops for.

Paul better be ready Saturday night. I hope he isn't ****in himself up. He better not disappoint against this average fighter. He called out for Margarito he needs to wipe this clown Margarito out of sight.

make no mistake about it ...............williams will crumble saturday ......he will receive an old school style beat down .....pressure......pressure until he can no longer with stand the PUNISHMENT......

sure whatever HATER KEEPING TALKING

i hope paul williams destroys margarito! i never bought into that hype at all. margarito looks like a dork too.

My problem with this claim is that everyone seems to look the other way when it comes to validating Paul Williams' credentials.

"But he's a 6'1" southpaw."

"He can hit you standing across the street."

"He looks like the real deal."

As we're going to find out this weekend, Kermit Cintron (who Tony beatdown, from pillar to post) is A LOT better than sorry ass Walter Matthysse (who gave Williams a fight for a minute). Yet the same people who claim Margarito is overhyped take no issue with Williams' regard as the future of the division being based SOLELY on hearsay and speculation.

that's right big boy i def. don't want to hear any excuses from williams, if he thinks he will have difficulties call the fight off....accidents happen that's why is called "accident" is unexpected...same thing that happened to clottey vs margarito, is not margarito's fault he hurt his left hand, just fight forward and im assuming that's what williams will do regardless the pain (well we still don't know what's wrong)

[Soldier01]

I just hope it's a good fight. Even though I think Margarito will expose some of Paul's flaws I'm gonna have to go with Williams.

Strange feeling....
