    Like say "catchweight" by any chance? Many here crying over spill milk that catchweight at 157 pounds is bs and that Williams is a p4ssy. Well is that mean there will be excuses if Williams clearly beat Martinez in the rematch? Listen i honestly don't like catchweights but since both Martinez and Williams are not really true middleweights and since both are clearly not going to be weight drain then why the complaining?

    Paul williams is a very polarizing figure, and Sergio Martinez is the new butt buddy for half the guys on ESB. Of course people will cry, whine, and make excuses.

    You should know by now that there will be excuses...It always happens.

    I can agree that the catchweight is bull****, but if the two fighters agree to it then these crybaby ass fans on this website should just go sit in a corner and shut the hell up...They're making more of a fuss than the actual fighters.

    Ray, you should know by now on ESB that some fickle fans on here will never admit that they're wrong and they will drop every excuse they could so they wont have to admit that they're wrong...happens all the time with some of these clowns on here.

    For starters...Just look some of the responses you're gonna get as this thread progresses.:-(

    In the press conference Martinez could easily say "Williams is trying to make me drain myself by moving down 2 more pounds." But no he didn't.

    He's not the kind of person that complains, that's why everyone likes him.

    Im not sure why the 157 catch weight, doesnt make sense , Martinez is the Middleweight champion of the world. Make it 160 and fight. I see Paul williams winning in more convincing fashion , martinez had his chance to knock him out but didnt.

    I like him as well. He has my big time respect. If Martinez beats Williams, i wouldn't complain and i wouldn't be surprise.

    I don't think Williams would be able to beat Martinez clearly, in my mind it was pretty clear that he lost the first fight, but too many judges/people place way too much emphasis on Workrate I guess , opposed to clean, effective punching... but if he does... sure he'll get credit. The catchweight thing is BS, these guys aren't even real MW's anyways.. the first fight I don't think either one weighed 160 or if they did they were barely above 160 on fight night.

    I like Williams, always liked his fighting style.. but I think he lost the first one and will lose the 2nd one.. he knows he lost the first fight too, you can see it in his face after the fight, he may have got the nod.. but Martinez beat him up.

    Knowing ESB, yes. The catchweight shouldn't realistically be a problem for either of them but it does seem pointless. I don't think the excuse that Martinez was drained will have any substance though.
