    Why are the Williams fans desperately clinging onto this?

      straight up, all jokes aside

      this infamous quote that you swear by as if it was law, might possibly be an error due to translation

      again, ive heard peoples words misconstrued due to interpreters
      Could easily be a mistranslation. Martinez was very concious that he'd have to be more attacking and go for a KO against Pavlik. Having been jobbed on the cards a couple times, he may have been saying he needed to do more to get the decision

              This proves Paul Williams is the best Jr MW and MW in the world.
              What did Williams say after the Cintron fight, lol. Williams got worked over by Martinez and Cintron..and got a gift in both fights. Why did Williams turn down a rematch?

                I'm sorry, keep me on ignore, you clearly don't have the reading comprehension necessary for any sort of basic argument.

                  So if for whatever reason someone who clearly dominated a fight(not saying Sergio did against Paul) said they didn't think they won that means they didn't when most think they did?

                  I scored it for Sergio as many did, it was a close fight and Paul got the nod while it could have easily gone the other way. Regardless of what Sergio really thinks in his heart of hearts, he doesn't get to score his own fights.

                    Well the judges and Martinez himself scored it for Paul. Good enough for me.

                      Lets not act like there was a very decisive winner though, it was pretty evenly fought which is why ppl want to see it again.
