    If Antionio Margarito truly wanted to fight Paul Williams, he could make it happen.

    This is a reality that fans need to realize.

    A fighter is not helpless at the hands of their promoters.
    Margarito has the ability to make a Williams fight happen, if he wants. He can go right up to Arum and demand it if he so chooses, and if Arum still denies him, he can break away from Arum in similar fashion to the way Floyd Mayweather did.

    No longer does the "Bob Arum" excuse work for why Marg does not want to fight Williams.

    He wants to fight De La Hoya and make a huge pay day. I think eventually he will fight Williams, but i don't think it will be any time soon. He will prabobly end up fighting Clottey to unify.
    People are over reacting at the whole Margarito vs. Williams 2 fight happening, before the Cotto fight no one gave a **** if they fought again. All the sudden Margarito beat the number 1 guy in the division and because Williams beat margarito a year a go (by a slim margin) that makes Williams the best in the division? WTF
    Margarito isn't afraid to fight anyone, his last seven opponents have included Kermit Cintron (twice), Clottey, Williams and Cotto.
    Margarito has been on top for less than a month and people are already hating on him, what most seem to forget is that he has already proved all the haters wrong.

      Tony wants DLH if he can get him, and Arum wants him to unify wit Clottey. Neither are bad options as long as Paul is first in line after he fights one of these guys or doesn't get either.

            Its called, "building up the fight".

            You know, the same phrase uttered when a Cotto or Margarito vs Mayweather matchup was contemplated.

            Except Floyd retired.

            Tony hasn't yet.

            And he already fought Paul, and lost.

            Paul declined an immediate rematch, and lost.


            "Build up".

              He truly doesn't so Williams needs to wait in line. What did someone see the future and Williams loses his spot because soon he'll lose?

                  He's gonna fight PW its just a matter of time...He's just trying to get paid before hand and I dont blame him...a fight w/Mosley and then Cotto again and who knows?? Maybe even DLH...

                  The more they build up to the showdown with a Margo/PW 2 the better it will be and the more lucrative...

                    I don't but if Williams is still there late 09 then make it happen. I don't care for Williams style. Tonight he did the same thing over and over too predictable.

                    Lets see if Williams can at least fight one of Margaritos left overs. Now that he's at 154 he can fight Rodney Jones or the other champion in Daniel Santos.
