Pavlik-Williams Negotiations Begin

[BattlingNelson]

I thought Williams was negotiating Dzinziruk and Pavlik Sturm

Both of those fights makes more sporting sense.

Boxing is a business and if they havent signed anything with anyone they're free to explore other options...

If Pavlik is still hitting the sauce, he will lose. Pavlik better take his career seriously or he is going to end up getting hurt.
Say no to Jack Daniels son.

So it erases the Abraham duck? It should quiet down those duck claims, but that duck will always be there. I wouldn't say he's been ducking Williams yet, if you're referring to him though. Paul does want the fight and has made it known, but I remember the negotiations last September, and Haymon and Arum didn't have a big enough budget to work with.

Now they do. I've heard HBO is offering a lot of money for this fight. No excuse for it not to happen. If it gets messed up though, it probably isn't going to be Pavlik's fault. I know Arum is hard to deal with, but at the same time, it seems like Williams wants an unrealistic slice of the money when Pavlik has the title and is the bigger draw.

Anything that that doesn't involve Europeans is irrelevant in your book it seems like.

Yeah, Dan Rafael said it's a lot, but if Pavlik's camp found that $2 million for Sturm was lowballing and that's not even counting the German money that was to go with it.

If 50/50 was their opening offer, it means they'd be willing to accept less, 60/40 or 65/35 sounds good. Williams' team can't be ****** enough to think they deserve 50/50 because of a winning streak.

Split s are mostly determined by draw apability, wich WIlliams have non.

Giving Williams more than 30% of any split right now, is nonsense!!

Watch out! Its the DRAW Police!

Stop acting like a bitter bytch. U take ur sadness out on PW becuz he makes cotto look like a bytch for ducking him and claiming the belt just as soon as he vacated. We all forgot about that and u should too.

Give the man his ***ing props and stop demeaning a real p4p champ!

Team PW can demand 50/50 becuz kp is getting peanuts according to him for that meaningless bout with sturm. HBO is putting up a bit of change for this proposed bout so he can take it or go and fight on that Latin Fury card.

PW looks to be a staple on HBO now. And he has the option to fight Diznurik for a belt.

i hope they make these fight
