    So you hate Mayweather for not taking Margarito's challenge but when Margarito ignores Williams it is ok?

    I'm starting to see a pattern here.

    I agree with most of what you say; however, I don't think of Paul Williams as a skilled boxer (he just a very tall high volume puncher). But, give the guy a break, he's just talking **** to try and get a good fight.

    Yeah he beat Margo (barely) but almost got ko'd! He never hurt Margo & he looks ugly when he fights! He has some talent & a good chin but he is not exciting to watch. He holds alot & jabs are 99% of his game. Margo starts faster & kayos him in the rematch & then Williams fades away!

    Williams, or most likely his management, is smart enough to understand that the only way he's going to get Floyd to come out of retirement and fight him, is to **** him off.

    Cotto's stock is heavier than Paul's, in my book at least. :good

    I give it to Paul he is trying to make the fights happen. However I think it's also because he knows his time at 147 won't last much longer and in about 1-2 years he's gonna be forced to fight at jr.middle. I think the Quintana fight the first time highlighted what is going on with Williams. He spent probably the whole training camp just looking to make weight. The rematch he did it all but how much longer can he mantain that form? It's not easy. Eventually it will take it's toll physically and psychologically.

    I mean lets be real about it. He's fought at middleweight before and is a young guy. 6'2 (or 6'3) and broad shoulders. By the time he hits 30 he won't be under the middleweight limit. He knows as much so he's pushing hard to get these fights where he will have a decisive advantage. Just like when DLH abused the lightweight division. No different really.

    Willaims can fight, and I like that he's willing to fight anyone. I give him his due, he's earned it. A buddy of mine compared him to De la Hoye style-wise, but I think he's got his own style.

    Quit the bitching. Your boy Margo is starving himself to say at WW but I haven't seen you post a damn thing. Paul williams is currently a WW all the talk about him leaving or being too big is just that, talk, lets deal with reality and what is going on now.
