    why did pwill ask for the 158 lbs catchweight?

    I honest think pwill was ****** for demanding a 158 lbs catchweight. martinez can still make 154 lbs. 158 lbs doesn't really benefit him or martinez. it's like asking that they both get water before the fight.

    there's only a couple reasons imho why pwill would ask for a catchweight:

    1) pwill or his team are trying to fool the public that he can still make 147 lbs

    2) pwill or his team think they are big shots and are trying to dictate terms

    3) pwill or his team are worried cause pwill got rocked last time at 160 lbs and think that 2 lbs is gonna weaken martinez

    what's your take?

      I think that they feel like if Williams keeps fighting at 160, that will give fighters like Pacquiao and Floyd to act like he doesn't even exist. But regardless the catch weight he demanded in this fight loses points in my book.

        I just wanna know what they still say he's 6'1..lol

        This guys gotta be like 6'3 or 6'4

        And as far as the catchweight..because he's puzzy..he doesn't want Martinez to have the full 160lb strength..I can't believe he even went as far as to ask for a catchweight yet brags about supposedly having 3 weight classes shook...pffft!!

        Paul Williams is a scam!

          none really make sense. its 2 pounds.... why not 1 pound off the division limit for extra comedy? or 159.5 catchweight

            Why did Pacman ask for catch weight against Cotto yet allowed bigger Clottey to weigh in at 147?

                  Margarito ducked a rematch with him. What are you gonna say? That he petitioned for a mandatory shot? Lol. Yeah a mandatory shot for his vacant belt like Cotto was waiting for. And I still respect Margarito more than a lot of other people do but I refuse up to this day to put the blame on Williams for that rematch not happening.
