    What you smoking? :cannabis

    Margarito couldn't even beat an old Mosley. And you thought he would beat TBE?

    Margocheato as much as I don't like his antics, I think would have given mayweather his hardest fight, also Cotto after the Mosley fight too. But that's a time passed and we can't dwell on it no more I guess

    Punisher is his biggest duck
    To be fair everyone ducked Paul

    That man was just too big
    Too strong

    when im in shape sharp and crisp i give my mate plenty of trouble (he has years of experience on me and is naturally bigger and a better fighter) but as soon as he gets back into shape he runs through me... ask anyone they will tell you the same.. you should try boxing yourself instead of watching it mate you may just enjoy it

    People really like to make stuff up with Williams.

    Reality: Williams won the belt from Margarito for his 1st title shot. Williams then lost the 1st defense of his title by getting out-boxed by Carlos Quintana. Williams wins the rematch with Quintana. Williams never fights again at 147.

    How was he ducked again? He fought 3 championship fights, one of which was a rematch for a loss, and left the division. I swear, you guys pretend as if Williams was some established champion at 147... he wasn't. Williams fought Margarito and Quintana at the championship level before leaving the division for good.

    That isn't exactly the championship resume of somebody who was "ducked by everybody."

    In 2007, I thought Williams would be a nightmare style matchup for Floyd. Especially after the Margarito fight. Extremely busy southpaw, tall as hell, big WW, heart.

    But then I saw more of his fights and watched him more, and I think Floyd would've won an extremely boring fight. Williams's defense was just awful, his offense was his defense. He would get hit with the same shots over and over, it didn't seem like he made any effort to adapt and avoid the shots. If he did try to make adjustments to avoid those shots, it didn't work.

    I liked Williams though. Hopefully he recovers and can walk again.

    Well well Victor I thought no one believed a word Bob Arum said ? Or is it you believe what you want to believe ROFL
    Punk Mayweather knew Tony Margarito would spank his cowardly scrawny ass a la Cotto.

    Floyd is making millions and all these so called fighter that he apparently ducked are either not boxing anymore, got caught cheating, making no money, or may be bankrupt from tax evasion. And you still have the nerve to **** on Floyd for beating guys bigger than him when he can easily go back down to 140. Maybe you forgot, but boxers cut weight. Floyd walks around in the 140's so cutting down will not be that hard for him. He stays at 147, walks around at that weight. then comes in at about 151 the most, fighting guys who are weighing anywhere from 160 and up fight night and you have the nerve to say he's ducking guys. You are probably a racist who is having a hard time dealing with a black man making tons of money. Go watch Equestrian or under water basket weaving!

    It is safe to say that every fighter has ducked someone until the time was right.

    Pac ducks all the time. Go put pac in with Canelo, guerrero, garcia, khan, maidana, porter, matthyse and let's see what happens, even with Broner.
