    The fact that Williams is willing to fight Mosley in Souther Cali, and Mosley isn't willing to step up to the plate is making Mosley look really bad in my view. FFS Mosley isn't landing a fight against Pac. Paul's fight with Winky was a financial bomb, but I don't think that would be the case with this fight if they threw it in Southern Cali. Hell, if they threw a fight between Arreola and Haye on the undercard, then that would be the best PPV of the year.

      Mosley is just flat out terrified of Williams...and rightfully so.

        I don't think Mosley would have turned this fight down in the younger portion of his career, even if he viewed it as dangerous. The guy fought Winky Wright and Vernon Forrest when every other fighter didn't want to. But now, Mosley realizes it's game over if he loses a fight at this point in his career, unless he really made it close like he did in the fight against Cotto.

        I don't think this is an automatic victory for Paul. But I would slightly favor Williams though. Williams may be dehydrated if this fight takes place at 147 too. And that's the only bad thing about this fight, being the fact that people might use that as an excuse if Mosley beats Williams. But I'm almost 100% sure if Williams fights Mosley for his WBA belt at 147 that Ring would use that fight to crown a champ, because they didn't recognize Margarito-Mosley for the Ring belt due to the factor of Paul Williams being forced out of the division.
