A'int It Funny How Rematches Work

[WaRCoTTo]

I agree to an extent..

I mean Quintana-Williams I..wasn't foreseen by many..People automatically counted Quintana out..and BAM!..he outboxes him for 12 rds...

Since Williams was "suppose" to win that match with ease..they gave him a 2nd chance to redeem himself..as they feel that Quintana can only accomplish B-level status in the WW division..and Williams is the rising star!

Also with Cotto-Margarito..If Cotto would have won..there wouldn't be a rematch..Cotto would be fighting DLH this Saturday..and possibly setting up a return for Money May..

But since Cotto the one who was expected to win..lost...the rematch is almost obligatory!...and they have to re-think their plan

It's the way of the boxing world..people try to predict too far ahead..and have to re-arrange their money tactics once reality sets in!..

It is a special case. Quintiana was dominated in the rematch. First round knockout.
Williams looked off in the first fight, and he proved that it was a fluke.

I'd actually argue the rematch as a fluke more than the first fight...

Quintana didn't just outbox him for 2 or 3 rounds..it was more like 7 or 8 rounds..or more!..

now in the rematch on the other hand..

Quintana came in confident as ****..stood in front of the punisher..and got smashed!!..but because he didn't do what he did the first time..

That is more of a "Fluke" than being out boxed for the majority of a match..

Co-sign those who say it ain't happenin if the fans don't demand it.

there's no need for a rematch if one guys KTFO the other guy

barrett is trash and can never beat Haye.

How is there no need for a rematch if Quintana straight out embarassed Williams the first time and Williams did the same the second time? That's 1 and 1.
I think Williams fans are afraid the second fight was a fluke and Williams would lose again.

[Jim Jeffries]

The second fight always seems to carry more weight, in a lot of cases even seems to erase, the first fight. I'd prefer to see Williams fight Cotto or Clottey, but I think Carlos has a very good chance of beating him if he sticks to the game plan he had in the first fight.

And ROFL at the second fight proving the first was a fluke. Seems a lot harder to outbox someone for 12 rounds than catch them early and get what looked like a quick stoppage to me.

we're scared he might knock him sooner and do serious damage to him, and if thats the main even that would be too short of a night of boxing, the fans deserve more.

ugh huh... the 3rd time around Quintana puts on another boxing clinic, that's why y'all so afraid of the fight.

Yeah because Paul has fought such stellar competition since Quintana that he's improved immensely since the first fight.

Williams appeared to come into the fight unfocused and lacking rhythm. The rematch he was focused, prepared and set the precident. He dominated Carlos and knocked him out in the first round. That sets the definition for inability to compete. Williams is on a different level.
