    Well WTF that would be a damn good fight I'm sure it would be entertaining as hell, I don't agree with HBO, maybe Paul will get Cotto ?

    Williams should stick to 154 and 160 at this point, unless he's going to comeback down and fight Mosley, that is the only fight there for him.

    I want to see this fight sadly HBO doesn't want it because it would make problems for their house fighters, Cotto and Berto, and Showtime can't or doesn't want to put enough money up for it.

    If this is true, i'm really starting to hate HBO. They also said they weren't interested in Froch/Taylor. What kind of fu*ken bullsh*t is that? I mean do they only want freak shows in Pacman/DLH mand Calzaghe/RJJ? I mean they ONLY care about money. Nothing more. They are a disgrace to this sport.

    Clottey should just look for a fight with Ishe Smith. They both love to talk but can't get a fight for ****.

    As another poster mentioned, he should stay at 154 and/or 160. I don't see him coming down two weight classes after a fight with Winky. He would be too weak.

    Don King was right when he said promoters don't know how to promote anymore. All these so called promoters do is look for HBO, Showtime, or PPV money and open dates. They don't try to put together a card and sell it to a network or to the public. This **** is pathetic. HBO shouldn't be in control of WW unification.

    Why should he stay at 154 or 160, so he can't whoop Cotto's ass? Yep that sounds about right. If he can make 147 he should fight at 147.

    Did you fall and hit head and then write your post? We are talking about Clottey and Williams not Cotto. Why, because I have two Puerto Ricans fighting in my avatar, you automatically jump on trying to bother me with Cotto? Don't confused me with some of these other posters, I am a fight fan not a fan of a certain fighter. Coming down two weight classes like RJJ is going to affect him. You should know this by now. RJJ, Tarver, and Oscar went through this. The question is, can he make 147 after the Winky fight?
