    Changing this thanks to Big Reg's posting. Goosen said they never signed the fight for December 5 so there was no fight to back out of haters! Just like you say about the first round of negotiations when Pdub backed out leading to the Bhop fight.

    Now we know why Arum said to just initial the contract. THEY never DID agree to the fight in the first place!

    Drink the William's Kool-Aid if you must. The FACTS don't support that. But why bother with facts if they stand in the way of what you want to believe? Right?:patsch

    Another attempt at misdirection because you KNOW! :deal

    He won't be able to afford that unless they take the Pavlik fight. I doubt his cut of the $500K after taxes was enough. Now the $2 mill cut for Pavlik just might put him over the top.

    Goosen sure had something to say;

    "I just finished reading the latest comments by Bob Arum from last nights "big" victory for Kelly Pavlik which I just wanted to cry after reading, oh sorry, that's what Bob wanted to do fighting in Ohio where his fighter couldn't draw two thousand paid attendance and made over $1.5 Million Dollars less than Paul Williams did in his fight against a World Champion two weeks ago, that also happens to be considered a Fight of the Year candidate,"

    "Kelly Pavlik beats Miguel Espino and they believe they have Superman. Pavlik made $1.5 million less and couldn't draw two thousand paid in his own hometown. The wheels of justice have finally prevailed in Paul Williams' favor."

    "Just a few factual comments starting with Paul Williams never pulled out of any fight with Kelly Pavlik as Kelly proclaimed in Mr. Vester's article prior to his loss to Bernard Hopkins. No contract was signed, hence the ability for them to fight Hopkins. As a matter of fact, despite what Bob said, there was no contract signed for December 5 either as discussions were ongoing. Bob can spin it anyway he wants to, but the bottom line is the only way this fights get done in the future is a simple 50/50 co-promotion. Period."

    "There isn't much more to say other than the fact that Paul Williams has demonstrated he will fight anyone at any weight between 147 and 160 pounds, including changing complete fighting styles weeks before a scheduled fight as he did with Martinez. Let me also remind everyone, it is Kelly Pavlik that has opted out of four different opportunities to get into the ring with Paul Williams for whatever reasons they want to use for the reasons: staph infections, money, making a fist, mandatories,"

    "We'll see just how bad they want to fight Paul Williams. They had their opportunity. We wanted it this year and they wanted it next year. If he doesn't want to do it, he can fight Bernard Hopkins again because it was brilliant the first time around."

    "As I said before, I do have too much respect for our sport to react to any of Bob's personal attacks and the distortion of the facts, especially when so much could be said in response about Bob with the numerous transgressions we've endured as a sport. As for the possibilities of a Williams-Pavlik bout in the future, as the recent events have shown, Paul is doing quite nicely with his career, and has shown his greatness and heart inside the ring and not with his words. Now it's up to Kelly Pavlik if he really wants to fight Paul Williams or find the many other reasons he can, I'm sure, not to fight The Punisher?"

    Nope. Pavlik asked for a two week extension. PW is the one that actually called the fight off instead of granting it. AFTER Williams said he wouldn't wait and canceled the fight with Kelly the ABC's, money hungry whores they are, told Kelly he would be stripped if he didn't defend by the end of the year. Arum hastily threw something together and put it on a Latin Fury card.

    And are you seriously going to say having an injury or illness is "backing down"? REALLY? SERIOUSLY?

    2,000?

    Suddenly that 3K those two "nobodies" pulled last week on short notice doesn't look so bad.

    I would'nt have anything to say after a "champion" has just beat a D-Level boxer and 3 of his last 4 fights were against Low Level competition!

    Team Williams are looking for A-Level competition to gain the respect from the boxing community rather than waisting time talking about Pavliks "Huge" win over the #50th ranked MW!!

    Fake injury is backing down.

    Pavlik asked for two weeks extention after 2 months extention just earlier. If this is not ducking, you are not Pavlik nuthugger.

    ABC has nothing to do with that. If he really needed to defend the title, he would match with WBC interim champ which he did not.

    Damned. That means everybody saying Kelly ducked Williams because he pulled out of the fight is just plain WRONG because Pdub NEVER signed the contract!!!!!!!!!! Nice find. Thanks Big Reg?:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup
