    Williams easily. Kessler can't be avoided since he doesn't fight at all.

    Undoubtedly Williams. He is arguably the biggest head to head challenge at 147 and 154, and a challenge to anyone at 160, yet no one even talks about him nor demands any matchups. I am sure we will see some good matchups with him in the future, but right now no one appears to want anything to do with him.

    People have barely ever talked about matchups like Williams vs Cotto, because he is so heavily favoured but people disregard him as though his natural gift of freakish dimensions takes away any valid claim he has. He is in an unfortunate spot at the moment but with time should find his way into the centre of attention.

    Kessler's more or less semi-retired so he cannot be avoided, and Clottey just got matched with one of the biggest fan favourites in the sport.

    Antonio Margarito.

    Just kidding, obviously it's Paul Williams.

    Sakio Bika.

    I don't know how people can think it's Paul Williams. His last fight was for decent money against a big name fighter. Yes, a lot of the top guys don't want to face him, but a lot of top guys DO want to face him and he just doesn't want to fight them because they don't bring enough money to the table.

    Sakio Bika, Roman Karmazin, David Lopez, Ali Funeka, Celestino Caballero are all more avoided than Williams, at least.

    I mean as of now

    Who wants this guy?

    Very very difficult fight for next to no reward

    Cotto only took it cause Cotto is one of the few guys who'll fight absolutely ANYONE

    Sakio's right up there. Forgot to include him on the poll

    Would love to see him and Kessler get it on
