    Yeah but he actually got some fights at WW, before he moved up.... Williams has beaten Margario and Quinatana and nobody else will fight him... I think he should get a mandatory for a ww title, and make them come to him..

    I think he will move up EVENTUALLY regardless.... so IMO he should do whatever he can at welterweight... NOW.

      C'mon, going up means nothing. There is no such thing as a height class. What is impressive is taking out the best guys or at least fighting them at whatever weight when you are fighting their weight. Paul would I'm with ree*** and bat on this one. By your twisted ass logic, PWILL should beat up Vitali to get some props.

      Larryxxx is ******ed. He wants everyone but his gay idol to fight guys that are way bigger than them and talks **** about every other fighter.

          I guess I agree with you but I don't see the sense in whining about it. Not that you are, but I hear a lot of whining on here because Williams can't get fights. If people don't want to fight you, go find someone else. If welterweights don't want you, fight in higher divisions. Which is exactly what Williams has done, and I think it's the right thing. But some of his fans come on here and ***** constantly about Cotto. The man is busy. He fought Margarito last summer while Williams was busy avenging a loss. After losing, he fought a bounce back fight against Jennings and now he's in a unification bout with Clottey. Williams fans have never been able to answer "when should Cotto have fought Williams?" because there's not an answer.

            All he should do as far as I'm concerned is fight 154-168. Don't exagerate to make me look ******, please.

              I just don't understand why people say he shouldn't fight in a weight class that he can make. It makes no sense.

              He is finding fights now and could be headed for a unification with Sergiy Dz if they both win their next fights, but he fights effectively at 3 divisions. There is no need to say he should move up because other fighters have. Some fighters move up, some don't. There's a million reasons why.

                    He proves more by beating better opposition.
