    Has Bute agreed to make MW for the fight? If so I don't care what he says. I suppose it is a duck if Wald calls out Pavlik too? :-(

    everybody is ducking Williams, at least from these who have p4p status
    as e.g. PAC, Mosley or Mayweather ... I'm not talking about the cheaters
    and underachivers who does not duck Williams and school him from time to time
    ... so since Pavlik is mentioned as a possible p4p top 10 then why should he
    be different from other top p4p fighters?

    His hand was nasty with a staph infection. I don't think that anyone is ducking anyone.

    You haven't heard? Peterson said Pavlik FAKED it to get out of fighting his boy...... Damned those medical records and bills didn't fool him. Nope, he is too sharp for that. :rofl

    That pic I saw of his hand was nasty. I think this fight could go either way. I think Paul throws more punches but they both throw alot. Pavlik hits harder. So it's about a 50-50 for me. Both have been on the canvas. Both have lost one fight.

    It means that the whole "ducking Willimas" is like Williams' second name.

    Usually an averaged fighter is matched with about 10 other boxers before
    the deal is settled and boxer at that level is fighting no more than 2 times per year.
    The reason for the 9 boxers who are not finalizing the deal are very broad
    and nobody is talking about ducking anybody in their case.

    In Williams case anybody who is matched to him and is not finalizing
    the deal is ACCUSED of ducking him or being scared to death.
    But the truth is that he is getting as much fights as others.

    The deal would be you not knowing much. Why would he fight Williams unless he was 100 percent healed and in shape from the infection and layoff? You don't just jump in there with Williams after that kind of lay off. That's like asking "why did Manny Rameriez play in the minors for 2 weeks after sitting out 55 games?".
    None the less he didn't duck him and he took the fight 2 weeks later because if he didn't he would be stripped of his belts. So he took a guy he could beat and use as a tune up and keep his belts. Its the same for any sport in general.

    If he doesn't fight Sturm or Williams next I'll be a little disappointed

    [url]He said he’ll take at least three weeks off, then resume training, provided his promoters can make a fight with either Sturm or Williams.[/url]
