Paul Williams is - WITHOUT QUESTION - the best at 147.

Showtime on a crap PPV that no one is going to see... at most 100K people will pay the 35.95. Odds are it is going to be one of worst PPVs given the poor planning by various promoters that have mediocre PPV's all around that only hurts boxing fans.

What part of "guarantee" is confusing you? Goossen is saying that he will incur the economic risk. Margo and Arum have nothing to worry about. If the PPV tanks, Joey takes the hit.

What more can they ask for?

Funny... I don't have a thread about me on the first page ripping me...

Um, because you are a non-entity?? We salute you .

You don't always take the first offer...

Did they counter-offer? negotiate?

Joey G even said that if Arum thought that was unfair, they'd flip the deal and he would take the other side.

But again...don't let the facts get in the way of your argument.

If Cotto is such a great inside fighter...if Cotto is so effective 'getting inside on a taller fighter', then why didn't he do that, errrr, IN HIS LAST ****ING FIGHT??

In fact, when is the last time that Cotto beat somebody 'inside'? I saw him moving away from Shane the last 4-5 rounds, and moving away from tony the WHOLE NIGHT.

What is this "inside fighter" myth with Miguelito?

he fights inside on guys he's naturally bigger and/or stronger than bcuz he can bully them.

Yeah. But that doesn't make you a good inside fighter. That is just physically dominating somebody.

Good inside fighters are guys like Toney or Floyd who can defend and create offense up close....against bigger guys.

I don't see MARGARITO losing to QUINTANA.

He lost to Williams though.

I agree, I wasn't saying that he's a good inside fighter, just that he does it when he can bully his opponent. I was seconding ur earlier statement

Cotto is a very good fighter. Just not a "great" fighter. There's nothing wrong with that. He has flaws that were exposed BEFORE this fight. I just wish that el puertorriquenos would maintain some perspective.

This **** is hilarious. It has NOTHING to do with Williams and EVERYTHING to do with Mayweather. The only reason Williams is being backed is because him and his fans have yet to speak on him as being a threat to Mayweather. He's also being backed because he beat the man who beat Margarito who him, his fans, and promoter trash Mayweather. You better believe if Williams starts calling out Mayweather they will turn their back on him. EVERYTHING a Mayweather nuthugger says on here goes back to Mayweather if you question why they decided to speak on a subject.

He holds a decisive win over the current champion. He avenged his only (decision) loss win via a stunning first-round knockout.

The Mexicants can use as many excuses as they want. We all know the deal: Toni knows that his belts are gone the next time he climbs in the ring with The Punisher.

Im pretty sure this is a joke thread.

but here goes..

Williams is not the best WW. Didnt any of the Williams wannabes see the Margarito/Williams fight? Not sure why he is the hero of so many but I think he is unproven and I think once he faces a fighter with heavy hands he would be in trouble. Cintron would KO him, Cotto would deystroy him.
