Comments Thread For: Paul Williams Targets Manny Pacquiao: Martinez Can Wait

[ericsantos]

Manny wouldnt fight foreman because of the size difference,what makes anyone think he would fight Williams which is a lot taller,faster and bigger? and what happened to Williams saying after his fight with cintron that if Martinez wanted a rematch all he had to do was call him out?He did that by saying he is ready to sign.Paul needs to step up first he didnt give quintana the rematch and now martinez

[Sugar Q]

Eh... I honesty feel at this stage Margarito is a tougher fight for Pac then Alexander and Berto. Shane? Mosley would probably tougher but it won't do anything for his legacy after Floyd whooped him and made him look old. I think a Cotto rematch at 154 would do more for Pac legacy than a Shane fight. Unless Shane looks rejuvanated against Mora...

And, again Shane is fighting Mora... So lets throw Shane option out the window. He is not an option...

I agree with P-Will, Bradley(140), and Floyd. But, not the other 3.

First of all Margarito doesn't have a license and should be banned for life and there's NO WAY that Manny (who is totally enamored with the commission and their rules) should even be remotely talking about defying the commission's ruling? So Margarito's name shouldn't be mentioned? What does Manny gain any way by fighting a guy Mosley wiped the floor up with? A Cotto rematch after just one fight back does absolutely nothing for Manny but keep him in hiding. Why not give Floyd his props and make that fight and cut the BS games or just fight Pwillz or Bradley.

this is the perfect opportunity for williams to erase any doubt about the the first martinez fight. would be a great fight,good money,and martinez is the champion. come on paul be a man and fight martinez.

If Pac Mayweather is not made, Pac possible fights maybe:

Pac - Margarito
Pac - Cotto
Pac - Berto
Pac - Marquez
Pac - Williams


In the above matchup, Williams seems to be the most dangerous fight!
Being a Pac fan, I'm nervous for Pac taking on Paul~~~
But then again, we know Pac loves challenge... You can look back the time before Pac-dela Hoya fight... majority of the fans didn't give PacMan a chance... And we know what happened there!

Unlike Mayweather who ducks very dangerous fighters in their prime and waits to fight them only when they're OLD!!!!!
Pac will fight anybody within his weight division!

If Goossen is really serious, all he has to do is pitch the Best Offer!


If Pac-dela Hoya was David vs Goliath...
Pac-Williams maybe David vs GIANT GOLIATH~~~~

Paul Williams and his Team are idiots. They know damn well they can't make 147 anymore. If they do, their draining him badly. He's getting older and has such a tall frame that at this point he won't be able to make 147 comfortably anymore. Pacquiao will knock his drained ass out. They need to focus on Martinez and other cats at 154-160, get over 147 already.

Even If Williams was healthy at 147 and fought Pacquiao, he'd still lose. Paul has a reach advantage he doesn't impose, just a work-rate that's suppose to frustrate you. He can be knocked out though, but I just don't see him beating Pacquiao - he has alll the advantages and won't use them.

williams targets pacquiao.. but does paquiao target williams? what has paquiao to prove with williams. i say no good match-up. williams is just up for the payday. better he fight pavlik or somebody else but the way he trains his sights on his choice opponents he might want to fight darchinyan. there's no harm in trying. go for it paul.

I hope this fight happens, if the mayweather fight fails to get signed.

This will be the real life Punch-Out family computer game.

There is no chance of these fights happening because Williams and Berto are not promoted by Bob Arum. They are also not coming off devastating losses, Meaning that it's extremely unlikely that Pacquiao will fight them.

He will fight Cotto or Margarito next.

[Sugar Q]

Probably not, but that is just an opinion... Cotto more than likely would of still been the main option.

But, it is a moot point anyways cuz P-Will doesn't have a belt...

Why ask a question and then answer it yourself?

No is not about the height. Check up my history on how I feel about the Pac-P-Will... Should I link you?

To say Pac is ducking Williams at 154 is just plain ridiculous. Pac has never fought at 154, is not campaigning at 154 and it is just plain ******. Is like saying Floyd ducked fighters at 154 cuz of his one and done fight against Oscar in that weight-class. Floyd was never campaigning at 154 is was just the Oscar fight and that was it. Same like Pac is not campaigning at 154. If he does fight in that weight-class I would assume is a one and done. So not fighting P-Will at 154 would be consider a duck. Don't be silly.

At 147 it can not be consider a duck either. Again lets not forget that P-Will has called out Floyd as well. Do you consider Floyd ducking him? I sure don't. As long as P-Will is fighting at 154 and 160 every WW has the right not to fight him. And, should not be considered a duck.

However, if P-Will has one fight at 147 and PROVE he can make 147. And, just fight anybody name, noname whatever but just PROVE he can make 147. Then you damn right every WW should be fighting him. But, until then if he doesn't. You can't consider any WW a duck for not fighting him.

Let's be real about this the difference in Pwillz fighting PBF or Manny is in their opponents purses. Manny brings a decent payday but Floyd brings a career defining payday. I know you guys wanna believe their on the same level but the facts show they aren't by a long shot. As far as Paul proving he can still make 47 that's done at the weigh in and by looking for an 8th title Manny put his ass out there now he has to account for it. Paul can even call for the fight@150 and be justified with Manny and his team on record calling for Cotto 2@151. There's no maneuvering around this PBF can sit back and watch because he is the far more lucrative fight while at the same time for Manny the jig is up. :-)
