    For Their To Be Any Clarity @ Welterweight
    This Fight Needs To Happen..

    it will bring margarito 1 step closer to unifying

    this is how i see it going down...

    margarito gets the winner of zab vs clottey
    pw fights winky....

    and what ever 2fighters comes out on top of these 3 fights

    will meet up in an summer matchup...

    thoughts?

    Paul would probably win again, Paul's style trumps Margarito's easily. Margo ain't bigger than Paul, and Paul has pretty good stamina, workrate, and can stick and move for 12, I dont know if its a smart fight for Margarito.

    It's a pick-em just like the first fight. Margo will start sooner and PW has learned from his loss to Quintana. PW needs to box more ala Hearns to avoid Margarito's improved pressure. That KO power he showed in Quintana II won't work.

    Even though it will be a big fight.....i hope they don't pull the ppv card.....not that i won't buy it but i just think it won't get good numbers with hardcore fans being the only ones that really want this one.

    I say f**k Williams. He didn't want to give AM an immediate rematch yet got one with Quintana. Williams should have done the honorable thing at that time. Now it is a little too late. Margarito should make him wait, and have PW either defeat Cintron or Cotto to get another crack at AM.

    it makes more sense now.. they both have belts..
    plus who else is left for marg to fight?

    shane-zab clottey?

    there all busy... and only 1 of them got a belt.

    pw or the winner of zab n clottey make the most sense...
    unless marg wanna take an easy fight to stay active

    Bring on Williams. There is nothing to fear guys. Margarito gets off a lot earlier this time around, trains 3X as hard for this fight and KO's William's late.

    I agree, this fight needs to happen.

    he does and its the next best fight out there.

    1. revenge factor
    2. to solidify his status as king at 147 if he wins
    3. its a unification fight

    After the tough fights with Cintron and Cotto ( I don't count Johnson as a tough fight), he deserves a gimme, don't ya think? I'm not saying he shouldn't fight Williams, but he should make him wait since PW didn't do the honorable thing and give him an immediate rematch. Besides, after seeing/feeling firsthand what Margarito brings to the table, I doubt he will make this an exciting fight. PW will probably run more than the last fight just to survive. Not a public pleasing fight in my eyes. One last note, Margarito deserves a big payday after having been ducked by the big names for so many years. So we shall see.

    nothings wrong with taking a fight light fight to just keep up activity....

    in my opinion atleast....


    maybe a matchup with quintana would be cool

    a fight margarito should win easily but relatively challenging...
    or could even go easier
