    Boo, next time copy the article on 1 sentence or more. Like this



    "Now it seems like a fight with Martinez might eventually get made, but I hear the money isn't enough that Martinez wants to risk his belt. So even if the fight happens, it could be a nontitle fight above 154 pounds." <<It didn't say it was "so small".

    Look i'm going to type in caps so boo can read correctly.



    WHEN PAVLIK TEAM WANTS A REMATCH CLAUSE VS WILLIAMS, IT WASN'T ON A SHORT NOTICE AT ALL. PAVLIK AND WILLIAMS WILL BOTH HAVE TIME TO TRAIN. GOOSEN DIDN'T WANT IT CAUSE HE FEELS IT SHOULDN'T BE CONSIDERING WILLIAMS WON'T BE A HUGE UNDERDOG. HELL WILLIAMS MIGHT BE THE FAVORITE. <<SO WHY SHOULD THERE BE A REMATCH CLAUSE??????? TOO ME A REMATCH CLAUSE IS FOR A FIGHTER THAT IS A HEAVY FAVORITE TO WIN BUT LOST.



    NOW GOOSEN WANTS A REMATCH CLAUSE ON WHOEVER WILLIAMS FACE ON DECEMBER 5TH AND IT MAKES SENSE CAUSE WILLIAMS WILL HAVE TO TRAIN FOR THAT FIGHTER IN A SHORT NOTICE IN WHICH IS 4 OR 3 WEEKS UNTIL FIGHT NIGHT.

    Clottey wants more money because he has to move up in weight for the fight.

    The fight wouldn't be at 147lbs!

    Clottey just wants to get one more big payday cause when he loses he knows no more big money fights are coming his way.

    Loses to Margo, Cotto and now PW should it happen cant be good for ones career.

    Clottey isn't a 3rd option short notice type of fighter, he is right for turning down this fight

    Clottey should have taken this fight. I don't know what he was thinking?

    I'm putting it out there right now, for $650,000 I will fight Williams. Hopkins, Cotto, or Floyd tomorrow................ for real. Thats a lot of money, give it to me.

    Exactly. Are we all just ignoring the fact that it's 154 & short notice and claiming Williams was 'avoided' again? :lol:

    Exactly! And you know how Arum is; I'm sure insulting Clottey with an initial offer of $250K did't help matters.
