Anyways, I'd like to see Williams vs Margarito. Did that Puerto Rican guy say Margarito vs Pavlik?? Margarito couldn't handle 154 and dropped down for a reason. Now he's going to go up to 160 and challenge the champ?? Arum would never put that fight on. Williams vs Arum fighters at 147 and 160 needs to happen. As does Hopkins vs RJJ 2, Calzaghe vs Dawson, and Kessler vs Glen Johnson.

Originally posted by adrsan84 View PostPeople's judgement of Pacquiao's ability was clouded by the De La Hoya fight, if he were to fight Cotto I would bet the fight on Cotto. Cotto is strong ass hell, and he has some great ****ing skills. Margarito just matches up terrible for him, but I think he would do a number on Manny, but Manny shouldn't be expected to fight guys like him anyway.

I think Tony can beat Williams too, but that fight is 50/50, and if Williams can move and avoid engaging he can win it.
A fight with Cotto and Williams would be huge if Williams keeps winning, but unfortunately I don't think Cotto can hold his end of the bargain, I think Margarito has his number. But if Cotto loses again, maybe then Arum would be down to throw Cotto at Williams, who can use that to make his case.

I think guys like Margarito and Cotto should not have been paired together already, and should've cleaned out the Mosleys, Bertos, Quintanas etc. first. Then put the winner of Cotto vs Margarito against Williams to unify. One thing is for sure, if Arum doesn't put either guy in with Paul, it will be a two-man show at WW for a while.
