    First of all, congradulations to Paul Williams for his tremendous performance over a opponent many considered he would again lose to:happy:happy



    But, is a rubber match beetween the two fighter necessary?

    Most of you will probably say no but don't forgetWilliams got schooled in the first fight and maybe Quintana just got caught cold.

    Plus, I don't think theres anything avaible for Williams anyway. He aint big enough name for De La Hoya and Cotto and Margarito will probably take a few months off so this should happen IMHO.

    Yes, I wouldn't mind it

    You could easily make the case Quintana relaxed and was caught cold, considering we were told Williams had an off night and Quintana fluked it the first time

    I don't think so. Q will get beat badly in a rematch. He'll probably last longer but not this Williams.

    A reserved Williams who sticks behind the jab is a hard opponent to beat at 147. He did everything right. He made Q pay everytime he lunged in.

    The size difference became a HUGE factor tonight because Williams fought the right fight. He fought the wrong fight the last time. It isn't hard to fathom which Paul Williams will show up in a rematch.

    No I would like to see Williams face Cotto or Margo in a rematch. Williams TKoed him in the first round he's mentally ****ed after that.

    actually fighters can get KO'd in round 1 or 2 and still be very successful after
