Kinda weird that this isnt signed yet. This isnt a big fight by any stretch of the imagination.
Whats the word with Cintron? Is he having second thoughts on fighting Paul?

well it pretty much is a guaranteed lost for him. though if he really believes he has a shot at beating williams than he has got to take it, way to big of an opportunity to turn down. but i personally dont see a scenario in which he wins, unless williams completely takes the night off. -

Probably California or maybe Washington:
Atlantic City is out though.Middleweight contender Paul Williams, a former two-time welterweight titleholder who lives in Washington D.C., attended the Shane Mosley-Floyd Mayweather media tour stop there Wednesday and said he hopes Sergio Martinez defeats Kelly Pavlik for the middleweight title on April 17 because "I have a better chance of getting that fight with Martinez and I want those belts," said Williams, who outpointed Martinez in one of 2009's best and most competitive fights.
Williams, however, said he still wants to face Pavlik, who twice pulled out of their fight last year because of injuries.
Their deal called for a 60-40 split in Pavlik's favor. Pavlik promoter Bob Arum said he was willing to put it back together this year under the same deal. However, Dan Goossen, Williams' promoter, demanded a 50-50 split, which led the Pavlik camp to make the fight with Martinez instead. Williams, however, said he still wants Pavlik and is OK with taking the same deal.
"I just want what's fair. I'll take 60-40, it's no problem," he said. "I just want to get that fight and I just want those belts."
He
'll have to wait for the April 17 result as well as win his fight on May 8, which Williams said was likely to be against former welterweight titlist Kermit Cintron at junior middleweight. Williams said the fight could take place in Southern California; Atlantic City, N.J.; or Washington. Williams said he'd love to fight in Washington, where fans attending the Mosley-Mayweather event gave him a tremendous ovation after Golden Boy's Richard Schaefer spotted him sitting in the VIP section and introduced him to the crowd.
