    ohhhhhhh.....

    thats a good point!!!!!
    but the thing is that the date is already set..... and its kind of hard to changes venues or dates like that....

    I think he should take the opportunity... if not.. expect to receive a lower offer...

      Uhhhh, from Williams' paycheck. Williams talks **** about being ducked, but in reality, no one wants to fight him because they'll make no money for a tough fight. Williams is the black skeletor.

        why dont paul just move the date back,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

        if you read clotteys trainer just left to africa, so now he would have to fly back and train.

        if clottey had 8 weeks to train, he would take the 650k.


        clottey needs time to come down in weight, incase you didnt know he is a heavy WW

          650k is a lot of money, but if Clottey was to beat Williams the money he could make in the future would be much more than that. Im not sure he could beat Williams anyway, but he wants to give himself the best chance possible by having a full training camp. In these days of one loss ruins a fighter, another loss on Clotteys record could lose him a lot of money. Some of you guys need to look past this one fight at a time **** this is his whole career on the line. of course he wants to be paid more if hes not going to have proper time to train for a fighter as tough as Williams.

            Paul went after easier opponents in order to get a fight and it back fired because he is offering ****ty money. The guy starts to get desperate and decides that his last option is Clottey. WHY? Paul is a ***** who is trying to get up upper hand on Clottey. Clottey is only going to train for 5 weeks and Paul has been training since the summer. Now that the fight probably won't go down, if Paul Williams has a pair he should really push back the date of Nov. and fight Clottey. If Paul cannot fight someone legit for the Nov. date and decides to push the date back and still avoid Clottey then just some cowardly ***** **** for Paul.

                Wouldnt it be easier for him to come down in weight? He was scheduled to fight Quintana that very day.
