    Cotto had a belt, he already had a fight lined up with Cotto. He really didn't need to fight a prospect... There was no point for Margarito to fight an unknown but he did anyways... That is what fighters do....

    I don't know how many unknowns Main event Showtime and HBO.... But, Kirkland was a highly touted prospect not an unknown. It was bull**** for P-Will out of all people to use a name value as an excuse.... Just like it is bull**** for elite fighters to use name value as an excuse not to fight P-Will.

      Kirkland fought three highly entertaining fights on HBO, so it's not like he was an unknown.

        So Williams has to fight every prospect that calls his name?

        Williams was his mando. The public wanted that fight or a Cotto fight. No one gave a **** about Kirkland. I just bumped what Paul said about. Goosen said if he went out and got a big win hed fight him.

        In hindsight its good he didnt fight him. The win would mean **** right now. Kirklands not serious about his career and still wants to be Tupac. There is no telling how much he weighs. Hes an even bigger question mark now then he was before.

            Kirkland knocked out three guys in wars.

            You have to admit that's gotta rate, right?

              Plus, Kirkland is gonna have notoriety money can't buy with his gun case. Nothing more hardcore than an already hardcore dude coming out of the pen. On top of that, I love watching him hit the heavy bag attached to that beat up truck.

              ****s badass.

                  Well for his sake lets hope his next fight isnt at 168.

                    Ike Ibeabuchi getting locked up eventually didn't cause Tua to lose credit for beating him. What the fuck is the point you're trying to make?

                      Anne probably straps one on though.

                      That's the painful part of his training.

                      Ann slept under a tree, so you know she's a tough taskmaster.


                      I remember on ESPN she showed them the tree she slept under, and I kept thinking surely there is a stairwell or an abandoned building in that city.
