    Paul Williams even mentioning this as a possibility shows that he's a true fighter. In a day and age where the top fighters won't leave their own backyard, Paul's willingness to fight abroad is commendable. I wouldn't count on it happening but who knows if the money is right.

    San, you're better than this. Are you saying you won't call your man on this when Floyd did the same thing and was called a coward?

    I believe it's true . . . for a reason. Margo is seeking the biggest money fight he can get into. :yep

    It is a low ball offer. I mean it's Arum lol... We don't disagree with you. We are wondering why AM turned down 4 mil to fight Williams. He apparently thought he could make more or the same fighting Shane, and then rematching Cotto for even more money.

    That $4M offer has alot to do with the reception on this $2M offer, I'm sure. The circumstances of the Williams fight have been popularly authored by Bob Arum. He "doesn't like Haymon," if you recall.

    The fans like to keep up with this ****, but they seem to selectively remember it..

    And I for one dont have a problem with that...I would like to see Margo make 10 million in his next fight...I stand by what I believe no matter what fighter it is..If Margo can get a bigger payday then so be it, he should take that fight..Problem is he doesnt have one, the 4 that was offered from the Williams fight and the two from the Shane fight is more then he made fighting Cotto, and is likely about what he would make in a rematch with Cotto...Only a fight with Oscar or Floyd would bring him bigger paydays...

    AND he called Shane out, and said that Shane was pissing his pants at the thought of fight him...SO that kinda makes it hard for him to turn down this fight and save face:yep

    yeah it maybe a little low but he is this big beast of a fighter that will not lose to anyone including the guy who already beat him then why not take the fight. it would be easy money in the bank. but for him at this point 2 mil doesnt make business sense(wish i could say that) so he says no just like anyone else with half a brain but anyone else who did that would be ripped on these boards by posters.

    Paul Williams has La Tonya Margarita fearing for her life. Margarita is about to go cop an order of protection.

    I have a question for Williams and his fans. If you want Margorito to fight you again so badly, why did you not rematch him immediately after the first fight, when Margo was asking for a rematch? Hmm? It looks like Williams needs Margo now, more than Margo needs him. Margorito is hoping to fight Mayweather or De La Hoya and make history by tearing those guys ears off. But, if its Williams who wants his ear taken off, I'm sure Margorito will be ready to lace it up sometime next year and oblige. Also, why doesn't Williams fight Cotto? I'd love to see that skinny body go throw the torture of 12 rounds with Cotto!
