    Santos vs. Williams is fight I would like to see, at this stage I say Santos wins possibly by late stoppage though I would'nt bet on it.

    He's got a better chance at 154 then facing Pavlik at 160. I think what it really comes down to is that Williams doesn't feel comfortable fighting at 147 anymore. Who knows? He's a really big wleterweight. Perhaps he really can't do it anymore.

    I not buying in to this. PTP can make more money fighting any of the big name welters than he can fighting at JMW. When ever Margo's ready PTP will come back down.

    First, I have a lot respect for Williams. But, if this is true, no wonder all the excessive talking by Williams concerning Margo. How does Dan Rafael know all of this? Williams has never ducked anyone so far, and it will take some serious ducking first for me to call him a ducker.

    And he'll get his ass kicked due to severe dehydration.

    Fact is he isn't a welter. He's a middleweight posing as a welter. I said it before once you go past that cusp of 28-30 your body puts on weight you can't get rid of. He'll have to kill himself in the gym to make 147.

    they already did challenge margo again and wills camp was turned down instead hes fighting clottey. i heard they were offering margo's biggest payday. i mean margo's badass but its obvious hes ducking williams, if he realy wanted to avenge that loss he would have done it already, hes not even mentioning the name williams

    the guy is huge for welterweight, its bound to happen even if he could still make 147 right now he would still move up in the near future

    What did anyone expect? Paul must do a lot of sacrifices in order to fight at 147 lbs with that height of his... Dan Rafael thinks well, PW gets comfortable at 154 and the only way is up and not back again to the 147-pound limit. He would lose the weight to fight Margarito and try to prove something in that Division... But let's face it, he may come across another slickster like CQ again and he may well feel more at ease with the additional weight rather than find himself with exceptional skills and advantages but no real substance at WW.
