    C'mon man, give it a rest. You're reaching just to argue. You're going to lose everytime.

    Cotto's had 4 PPVs with each doing anywhere from 400-500k give or take.

    You're telling me Williams does the same based on his name alone? Highly doubtful. Why don't you check the ratings of the Williams vs Winky fight. that'll give you more evidence that Williams isnt at that level yet.
    Stop it.

    Cotton's PPV numbers have all been dissapointing that's why Arum didn't release the figures.

          but like i said he's a good fighter,
          he jus needs to STFU and keep fighting and wait for his oppertunity,
          jus like many fighters befor him.[/QUOTE]

          Williams has been a world champion who deserves the right to call out whoever he wants. He's not some prospect fighting his way up. And in boxing you don't get things done by keeping your mouth closed. Your post makes no sense.

            thats because Barrera dont give a **** who he fights,
            and dont give a **** what he gets paid, the mans a G.

              He's a grown man..at least he's not being told what to say like Fanny Pac and Cotto.

                  [QUOTE=portuge puncher;5452714]i think he's a really good fighter who has real potential,

                  but im gettin a little sick of him sayin he's being ducked and knowone wants to fight em', and calling out everybody blah blah blah........

                  the reason guys like B-hop, mosley, cotto, and others dont want to fight em is not because he's a hard fight (tho he is) but becaz he isnt a big draw at all, he never has been, if the big names fought him they wouldent be makeing as much money as they usally do, so why should they.

                  and pavlik did agree to fight williams, but williams turned it down for whatever reason, you can hear it said by one of the commentators in the winky-willams fight.

                  I also heard that Pavlik turned down a fight with Winky Wright said by Wright himself. Hearsay amounts to what you want to believe.

                    Shane was 37 and didn't look like **** at 147 in YEARS.

                      the point of this thread is that williams isnt a big draw,
                      he needs to fight a few more times and wait till he actually
                      has a fanbase that will pay to see him.
