Id respect Paul Williams alot more if he admitted he thought he lost the fight

[Holmes]

Everyone knows that PAUL Knows he lost that fight. Be a man and say you thought you lost. BJ Penn did it. Man up

true story.............

Takes a big man to admit you lost a fight and to offer an immediate rematch. Think Martinez will accept the rubber match?

[BoxerDood]

Exactly. That really bugged me. I was ready to give him props, saying he fought his heart out and I'll really miss seeing him in the ring, but then he had the audacity to say he won...He and his trainer BOTH agreed that they needed a knock out going into the 12th round. They even told him that they heard that conversation and he still tried to say he won...Pathetic.

if he wants an easy match he will lol. but naw i dont think he will honestly. maybe he will fight lara because he really won that fight

[DoktorSleepless]

If he admitted that, all his (or whoever in his team) money for paying off the judges would have gone down the drain.

i was thinking thats the only reason he said that

[daggum]

this was reminiscent of the hopkins-calzaghe fight where calzaghe and his trainer knew he needed a knockout to win going into the last round and looked utterly defeated before the decision was announced but immediately changed their tune and pretended like they had won. maybe williams will even say he beat the crap out of lara in a weeks time like calzaghe said.

[terradome]

His face was battered he was slurring his speech and he still couldnt conceive he lost. I think he mumbled the fight was close or something.

I would lose respect for Sergio if he decided to fight him again. Theres no reason, he beat him once by decision and felted him in the second fight. I think Williams should fight a gimme fight and call it a day. Hes had a good run.

[Visceral]

Especially considering that Max Kellerman caught him red-handed by bringing up the exchange in the corner:
Peterson: "You need a knockout to win this fight" Paul: "I know"
Then there was the look of utter defeat after the bell.
Come on Man! Just admit that you lost.
