He was offered a fight last Feb., after Cintron pulled out. What are talking about? Cintron pulled out, decdided not to reschedule, called out every welter except Paul, and then got destroyed by Margo. What, are they then supposed to approach him about a fight? Lance, I'm talking about after Williams' fight with Margo, not Cotto's fight with Margo. Clearly he can't offer every last soul at Welter a fight. It's a clear cut hyperbole meant to get the point across that many fighters didn't want to fight Williams. Furthermore, Berto and Williams have the same manager. Goosen would never be able to get to the point of offering Berto a fight. Who did he make offers to? How come they turned down a counter offer from Winky? If Top Rank countered Team Williams and offered him say $1.5 mill and then Williams turned it down, what would you say? That's pretty much what happened with Top Rank's alleged "offer" to Winky Wright. He built Margo up with alleged offers to Floyd and Mosley.
Reg...I'm not gonna get into the whole" Arum made offers to ... and ...", it's waste of time at this point to relive it. Obviously Goosen is taking some liberties with his whole, "I offered Williams to everyone" spiel. But he's a promoter and doing what he's supposed to do. Can't fault him for that, but I can call his bull****. There are similarities between Williams situation, and Margarito's from years ago. Big difference it, Margarito beat top guys. Williams needs to do more of that as well. Margarito paid his dues. Williams is living off Margarito.
Lance, I'm talking about after Williams' fight with Margo, not Cotto's fight with Margo. Reg...nevermind...lol. Good post. This was one of the easiest answers to respond to, and he blew the response lol. He really thought you were talking about.........Hahahahahahahahahahha...let me stay out of it lol...
Margo spent over a year living off of Floyd. Margo never beat any top guys except Cotto. You can count Clottey if you want, but he didn't become one of the top fighters in the divsion until after Margo beat him.
You are one of the most passionate fanatics of a boxer that I have ever seen. Do you really think you can discredit Williams and his promotor, and get away with it with these infantile rantings? :nono
If it was so easy, why didn't you answer it? Are you gonna piggy back on everyone else's post? And for the record, Reg never said WHEN. atsch Hey reg...if you have something on your back weighting you down that smells like ****, it's nallege trying to buddy up with you. :good
I don't take what Goosen has to say seriously when regarding Williams to be honest,I remember a couple of months ago he claimed Kelly Pavlik wanted none of Williams,basically trying to imply Pav ducked Williams.
Mayweather helped make Margarito Reg. And please, never beat a top guy? ****....MOST FIGHTERS don't get to fight the ONE top guy Reg. You think Floyd beat the TOP GUY because Baldomir had a friggin belt? dude's a journeyman that would have lost to any # of WW's. You're too smart to say **** like that Reg.:deal
Tell me what top guys Margo beat besides Clottey and Cotto? You talk down about Baldo but he hadn't lost in 7 years and had jsut beat the undisputed champ. I'm not saying Margo has to beat THE top guy, but what top tier Welters has he beat besides Cotto and Clottey?
The length of Baldomir's win streak means nothing unless you look at who he fought Reg. Why do I even have to tell you that? Hell, Shotgun Gomez hadn't lost in the same time period, but I've seen you joke about him. The difference between Judah and Margarito, Margarito beat the guys he's supposed to beat. I guess it's convenient to leave out Cintron now. He was ranked by Ring in theior top ten. Top five in both fights I think. Kyvelos, Gomez, and Perez were all ring ranked. If you just want to dismiss them, that's fine. They were ranked, and Margarito beat them.
I would hope Paul can fight Clottey, that would put him on his way to becoming the publicly recognized man of the division.
Reg was making sense even before I found out you were an AM fanatic. You have so many arguments going around defending AM, that you are confusing your posts and answers lol. I now want Williams to now fight Jennings
