WBO Forcing Paul Williams To Vacate The Welterweight Title

[brownsugar7]

betcha Cotto doesn't take the eliminator,.. not saying he's a coward,.. but his management team likes to be in better control of when and where Cotto gets the tough fights.

And you think there was interest in kolle or interes in Phillips, come on now. Quintana would off made more sense financially for Williams. But he just dont want any part of Quintana, thats evident!!!!!!

Yea, Quintana looked deadly lying on the floor in the first round like that.

[Mr. Fantastic]

L0l at the Mexicans here and Margarito fans sticking their ass on Quintana..

Williams blown him up in 1 round?

How about Margarito? Did he already avenge an ass whooping Williams gave him?

I don't know what ass whooping you're talking about son. It was a close fight against PW. He beat him but it was far from an ass whooping, you should watch the fight and not make **** up.

Maybe you should go pray for December when the only great asian boxer is going to get handled.

LMAO!!!!!!

Cotto vs. Cintron

Cotto vs. Cintron is the fight that needs to happen. Both are champions who only have blemishes from the hands of Antonio Margarito. These guys, both proud fighters from PR will definitely put on the show that all fans deserve...and one of them will come out ready to take the next step!

Why Cotto should be fighting for a belt now?. He just got destroyed and quit like a coward. Williams earned his title by beating Margarito and avenging his loss to Carlos Q.

Someone Williams size looks like a bag of bones at welterweight. It's not a healthy or natural weight for a guy 4" taller than Tua and Tyson. Williams would have a reach advantage over Vitali Klitschko.

He should move up to cruiserweight, like Guillermo Jones did.

Williams is fighting for an Interim title @ 154. So who cares if he vacates @ 147. Now he is being criticized for fighting a 3-time Jr. Middle Champ over an unknown Euro fighter who has never held a belt. Don't think Michael Jennings is going to get approved for TV for Cotto to fight. If he was acceptable, I am sure Pwill would have fought him.

Who cares to see Quintana vs Pwill again? In the first fight, Quintana hit him with everything he had, and the kitchen sink, and he could not hurt him; some cuts but never buckled. The second fight, Pwill caught him with a few blows and Quintana was stretched in the 1st ROUND. Kolle was a stay busy fight on TV. He calls out Margs, Shane, Oscar, Cotto and Clottey, and there was only 1 taker. Clottey. And since that is not a PPV fight, there wasn't enough money available to make it.

I knew Arum would have to look for the Shane fight since Cotto didn't want the immediate rematch. Those are the only two that would bring Margs more money than PWill's 4 mill offer. And they are bigger name fights.

Pwill is fighting the best fighters he can get within his budget. He makes more than most of these fighters, and is on TV for every fight. But in order to blow up, he needs to KTFO Verno Phillips.

good

you dont go between weight classes, fight in your weight class or be stripped of your belt, i like it

Yeah tell that to Henry Armstrong.

[buckdacious]

well that sucks. maybe if Williams tried to fight Forrest for the WBC then he could have kep that WBO belt. I say Cotto fights Jennigs anyways because we need a undisputed champ in the best division.
