    Exactly these Margo lovers are hilarious. Phillips is s title holder at 154 and a much better fight than Delvin Rodriguez. Nothing wrong with Williams fighting at 154 and trying to pick a belt while he waits for a big name at 147.

    I know you're trying but I just CAN'T meet you on this one man. It's ridiculous that they have a fighter with a win over the top welterweight in the world and you can't find him a fight.

    I haven't seen anything between Cotto and Cintron...and while I doubt Cintron would take the fight, it seems as though they didn't even try to get it done.

    Berto? Give him your best offer and try to get him to CHASE you to a fight.

    Mayorga at 147, Judah at 147, Collazo, Baldomir jesus christ get SOMEBODY in there but the best they can find is Delvin Rodriguez? **** off pal.

    It's sad because it feels like Williams is getting the shaft despite it being nothing of his own doing. He could take

    If he wants Paul to fight at a higher weight then PUT HIM in a higher weight class, don't tease with me potential big fights at 147 and then not be able to deliver. Put him at 154 and have him beat up on John Duddy and the rest of the potential cans at that weight.

    I like the idea of the spinks fight it can either play out like the first quintana fight or the second.

    WHY THE HELL IS EVERYONE SLEEPIN ON VERNO PHILLIPS~!?!?!

    If Cory Spinks was as good as he's suppose to be, Verno shouldn't have been in the fight... Cory to me has 1 legitimate win as a jr middleweight and that was RODNEY JONES~!!

    Verno Phillips, just when u think he should be on his way out of the game, he not only is lingering around, he happens to be one of the topguys at 154.... He's not Andy Kolle....

    There have been lots of articles and talks about Cotto possibly fighting Cintron next, you probably just missed them but they were around.

    He can't fight Berto even if they gave him a "best" offer, he has a mandatory to take care of in Collazo. Also there is no such thing as sending out major offers for nothing, this is a business as well, they're not stupid.

    Mayorga is coming off a brutal KO loss, Juda is coming off a loss against a fighter he is set to fight next year in Clottey, even as stay-active fights those won't generate enough interest.

    He's rumored to be fighting Phillips next, that's better than nothing at least considering the man can't get any reasonable fight lately even though he wants them.

    You are one of the worst posters with a totally worthless opinion on this matter. You shouldn't even be allowed to talk about Floyd, Williams, or any other WW for that matter.

    You are not even in the know of how boxing works. You hear guys talk, and think, oh, he is calling this fighter out, how come he isn't fighting this guy. You need boxing 101. You have to learn how boxing matches are made. This juvenile way of thinking won't win you any points here.

    You are a joke. They haven't stepped up. There is no oney in a Clottey-Williams fight, and Arum offered Williams peanuts to fight a MW. Arum is the scum of the earth, and so are your pathetic posts. You are about as fake and tranparent as it gets. You aren't even a boxing fan or a hater of Williams. You are just a dude who likes attention.

    There were tons of articles on Cotto fighting Collazo as well...not to mention the articles on Paul Williams against that UK Welter Jennings being almost signed. My point is just because they're talking doesn't mean they're fighting anytime soon.Look at Mosley/Margarito for a point of reference. Just because Cotto and Cintron are in talks doesn't mean Williams' people should just "aw shucks well that's dead."

    Verno Phillips is a good win for Williams if he wanted to compete at 154..but if we wants to be a welterweight, He should be fighting Welters. His team has done a **** poor job of finding him fights.

    Also Ike Quartey gave him a boxing lesson aside from that KD when he got careless and cocky classic Quartey there. Phillips cant hang with the top level fighters I know not a sole who thinks he won that fight with Spinks.
