    These kids are fools. To be honest, Willaims would prob be more of a threat to beat Kelly then WW would. But either way, Pavliks destroys both of them.

    He complained that the hbo commentators are always lookn for the next great white hype and said that they dont give black boxers credit. Crybaby *****. I wish that ***** would face Clottey.

    If Williams is getting popular, how come his last fight was relagated to Showtime? His last few fights before that were on HBO.

    I fail to see how that makes him racist.

    Pure nonsense. Those hbo commentaters were on Taylors nuts hard as hell. Winky needs to realize he is not a draw and no one wants to see him fight. I mean **** Bhop and Winky only drew 10000 fans.

    Pavlik's fight against Taylor, which was in Vegas, drew less than 10,000 fans.

    Vernon Forrest was the main event and that big arena was packed. There have been and will always be great fights on showtim. Castill vs Corales, Casa, vs Corales, Tyson vs Holyfield.

    Pavlik was a new face and people did not know him. Thats pretty good numbers for an unknown.

    Complaining about "racism" in boxing in a day and age when minority boxers command the lion's share of earnings, respect, and recognition, as they have for decades, is stupid and counterintuitive and thusly wide open to questions of alterior motive on Winky's part.

    It smacks of racist jealousy at a time when coinidentally some white fighters are on the rise in the upper weight ranks.

    Isn't HBO the bigger network, with more subscribers, and an overall better roster of fighters? If Williams is getting more popular, wouldn't the bigger network(HBO) look to keep Williams fighting on their network instead of passing on his fight?

    Where does the racism come in? I've seen Klit fans on this site claim that people don't like him becasue he's white(this despite the fact that most posters on this site are white). Are these Klit fans who make this charge racist as well?

    But you said no one wants to see Winky fight. According to the numbers, more people want to see him fight than Kelly.
