Paul Williams Camp Turn Down Fight with Pawel Wolak

[jrosales13]

thats all fine and dandy but lets not act like p will hasnt come thru for hbo before. he has consistently fought quality opponents. more so or just as much than any fighter in the last 5 yrs. and besides, the refusal of wolak does not mean he wont be fighting a quality opponent. im more interested to kno wha weight he'll fight at.

And, that's all fine and dandy that he has done that for HBO. Doesn't mean he should have a tune up or a gimme fight on HBO. Now if he fights a quality opponent that's great. But, if he doesn't and wants a gimme fight that's fine too. But, it shouldn't be on HBO. He can take that to Versus, Fox Sports, Flix, or ESPN2.

Even you should admit that he's been on tba for way too long

I'm all for him taking at least one tuneup off hbo/tv.

i do think hes been on tba for too long. but i also give him the benefit of the doubt. he deserves it. i think he'll come thru. thats all im saying.

great match up. wolak need to let williams afew tune ups before fighting him. pre ko'ed williams would have ko'ed wolak imo.

Why's Steve hating on Paul Williams? This guy just got KTFO. Can't he have an easy fight before getting stuck in?

Cotto fought Michael Jennings after losing to Margarito for fs sake.

Steve Kim is starting to sound like loser.

Pwill can get his soft touch... but it better not be on HBO.

also Cotto can actually bring in ratings... pwill can't draw flies to dog *****

From Steve Kim's Twitter:

Told that Pawel Wolak was turned down by Paul Williams and crew. I guess the problem is Wolak had a pulse and would try real hard #boxing

Yeah,I read every single reply before I replied & quite frankly I'm surprised that no one checked this.Had a pulse & would try real hard huh.Well steve kim,does 40 year olds & other fighters who've been ko'd like the Punisher has,deserve to be fighting pfp kings on 5 year long winning streaks??On ppv to boot?? Oh yeah,that's what I thought.

I still don't know how Kim is hating on P-Will with what he said.

And, nobody is saying that P-Will doesn't deserve a tune-up. Of course he deserves a gimme fight. But, does he deserve it on HBO? Especially when you consider that Martinez can't get an HBO date in the summer.

Hes an HBO fighter his next fight will be on HBO. What are we going to kick him off to ESPN because hes not fighting a Top fighter? Heck I just saw Manny charge people 70 bucks to fight a dead man. Let Paul have his time on the network. Kid has earned his due.

Me personally, though I think a lot of people overrated Williams (Burner specifically), he has fought good competition up to this point.

Where IS Burner, anyway? I haven't seen him since Williams' loss. Did he change his name or something?
