    Anybody got an inside scoop?
    You don't think they're looking at a Williams-Quintana III at 154 do you?

    I've been looking forward to Paul's return but haven't heard anything other than a brief interview he did saying he wasn't going down to 147.

    Personally, I see him fighting K9 in his next fight for the IBF Jr. Middle title

    Who would win Cintron-Williams II if that materialized?

    Cintron was doing very well in their first fight but if Williams style of fighting (throw 100 punches a round in the general direction of your opponent and hope something lands) is going to work against anyone, it should be Cintron. He hates being put under pressure and, if Williams puts enough on him, Cintron will look for a way out.

    Williams said he's looking for a tough fight not a tune-up, so I think K9 would be ideal. A very winnable fight and a title to boot.

    I think he could beat Canelo potentially but Canelo's people are too smart to make a fight like that happen at this point. There's very little reason for anyone to fight Williams at the moment because his name has been badly tarnished by losing to Martinez and he's still too dangerous to fight unless there's a real financial incentive.

    I'm actually surprised that we haven't been hearing Canelo's name thrown in more

    k9 vs. williams might be what transpires. I gotta think P willy would win that by UD or late stoppage.

    I hope it's Bundrage or Cintron. Meaningful fights, with Cintron II being one of the at least five most significant at 154, but what big ones loom for him? I consider Cintron one, but maybe Angulo maybe? I still don't see anybody other than Sergio and journeymen willing to fight him. No Alvarez, Cotto, Berto, Pac, Floyd. If I were P-Dub I'd shell out for the sanctioning fees and start swooping up the belts at 154. Bundrage and Trout would be the first two on my list. Then take the winner of Cotto and Alvarez (in a dream land no doubt) as this would be in close to a calendar year.

    He should take out Pirog or in any case this is the guy Pirog should be clamoring for or trying to fight to prove he is no one hit wonder, he needs to get some real credibility to justify the outlandish great white hype he is getting.

    After the fight with Maciel Pirog's team said they will try to make a fight with Paul. Hopefully it happens.
