[ELPERRO]

War Nobuhiro!!!!!!!!

I'm down for that ***in bandwagon.

fak it!!! room for one more?

[rasdun]

peterson is so full of it. They want Ishida b/c they want the easiest fight possible that they can still get HBO to pay them a Mil for. This is terrible ofr an HBO main event. If Williams wants an easy fight following the KO he took from Martinez, that's fine, but HBO shuold not be willing to pay top dollor for it - which you know they are, considering its a WCB main event, and it's a Haymon fighter.
I dont get how HBO plays hardball wit the man who beat Williams (forcing him to fight Dzinziruk) but not wit Williams himself - its such a f***** ridiculous double standard for Haymon fighters

lmfao.. you serious.. he's making a bum come down in weight to make the fight happen, wow...

[Perez37]

This is crazy, buy I actually think this is going to be a.hard fight for P.Will I think he loses by SD or gets knocked out.

155? I thought his promoters said he was going back to WelterWeight?
Even though Williaims is an exciting fighter to watch, he is one of the biggest frauds in boxing. Goosen tried to advertise him as the most dangerous man from WW to MW and the most avoided, but when it came time for him to face quality opponents he never stepped up to the plate or made money an issue.

While he was campaigning at 154 he could have fought Dzinzurik and taken his belt instead, and his 0. Could have fought Angulo, rematched Cintron and didn't. Joshua Clottey called him out for a fight and Goosen declined.

He could have waited out Pavlik, (the whole staff infection thing) but instead he was too proud, and on top of that demanded a 50% cut with Pavlik.

Heck he didn't even want to rematch Martinez and made him come in at a catchweight for that fight.

This guy is all hype, and the sad part is Goosen never hyped him up properly.

Last I heard they said Williams would NOT be campaigning at WW anymore, unless it was for a Pacquiao or Mayweather fight. But that was a while ago so I could be wrong...

Williams may want reconsider this.

What's fraudulent about Paul Williams? I don't understand how anyone can not respect him as a fighter. Paul Williams is good for boxing. The guy willingly fights from 147 to 160. He's fought Margarito, Quintana (twice), Phillips, Winky, Martinez (twice), and Cintron. He's an action fighter who throws tons of punches. He's fun to watch. If I were coaching, I wouldn't teach someone to box like him, but there's not a single fight for him from 147 to 160 that I would not want to watch. You all are crazy.

No doubt. He continues to take dangerous fighters. I hope he gets a 3rd fight with Martinez.

ishida has 8 kos thats why they pick him cuz they scared of pwill getting ktfo again...nothing wrong with that cuz he needs to get back in the ring....i think its a good fight as long as theres a cofeature....

[Marcov]

Interesting match. If Ishida scores a knockout the nsb will herald him as the next Julian Jackson.
