Paul Williams-Kermit Cintron Talks Begin

[-Antonio-]

????

what r u talkin about? he just fought in late JULY? he's only been off for 2 months...

Never mind I thought it was in June, and I meant by the time he fought in Feb. he'd be on an 7 month lay off. My bad. 6 isn't that bad, but I'd rather see a young champ fight every 3-4 months personally.

I think the reason Manny Steward wanted this fight for Cintron so badly is because how open Williams is for a straight right hand. If Marg. had any power in his right, that fight wouldve been a lot different.
Cintron throws his right a lot faster, straighter and harder than Marg. Williams' chin is going to be tested, I think hes going to have of the canvas if hes going to win the fight.

I think Cintron will KO him if he doesnt get gassed.

this would be a good fight.

Close fight. Cintron spars with Andy Lee, who gives him a good 6'2 southpaw look, so he will be prepared.

What the **** is HBO going to waste resources on Arreola for? Are they going to try to build that ****er up b/c he's Mexican-American? There are a dozen better HW prospects.

WOOP WOOP! This fight would be a tremendous one, and would definately put to rest the arguments of who's the next big thing in the Welterweight division. I say winner of this fight should probably fight Margarito again, or maybe the loser of Cotto-Mosley? Being that the winner will most likely fight Floyd, whoever wins this should fight the loser/Margarito and determine who gets the winner of Floyd-Cotto/Mosley.

I'd like to see Cintron TKO 11, but it'll be a task.

I agree that the winner of this fight should fight the loser of the cotto-mosley fight while the winner of cotto-mosley fight fights the hatton-mayweather winner. then the two should fight to determine the best.

Williams creates alot of spacing which is pretty hard for Cintron to put his powershots effectively

Arreola was pretty enjoyable in the fights ive seen him in. depending on who they get to go agains him it's not bad for an undercard, imo.
