    Williams/Cintron won't draw like a fight with Pavlik or Martinez would.

    A fight with Cintron won't do the TV ratings a fight with Pavlik or Martinez would.

    A Cintron fight won't pay as much as a Pavlik or Martinez fight.

    Cintron does not present the challenge Pavlik or Martinez would.

    Willimas took the least challenging, lowest paying, least popular fight.

    Can we officially dump the "most feared fighter" bull**** now?

    Williams needs to seek professional assistance in dealing with his anorexia, he's a bad role model for children.

    I presented you with a series of facts. I know you find those facts troubling, but I did not create them.

    Williams needs to be reasonable about negotiations and fight Kelly Pavlik. He's getting a chance to fight for the middleweight title without truly campaigning at middleweight. A win over Pavlik puts him in the elite class and he can begin to carve out a legacy.

    I think Pavlik pumps him on his rump - but that's just me.

    Anyone who picked for williams fighting Cintron over fighting the MW champ of the world, who is supposedly an easy opponent according to PW's handlers... is a moron.

    PW's handlers want no part of Pavlik, this is obvious , the contract is there... it's his biggest pay day and a chance at the historical MW championship... but instead he fights Kermit "the *****" Cintron at 154 for barely any $$ ? PLEASE , PW Nuthuggers/PAvlik Haters, tell me how this makes sense to you?

    I tried to explain that to NBA. Kelly is champ, offering Williams a career high pay day and the chance to be King of the MW division and they get all bent out of shape over the percentage. It really doesn't matter what Kelly makes for the fight.

    If Kelly beats Martinez convincingly, look for Arum to pull the offer. He doesn't need Williams anymore. The fighter A beats fighter B and therefore would beat fighter C works just fine for the general paying public.

    If Williams doesn't beat Cintron convincingly, look for Arum to pull his offer because Williams would be damaged goods. If Cintron actually beats Williams, Paul will be looking at FNFs and he will have lost the $1.2 mill + gate and endorsements splits.

    Of course I still think Williams did the right thing. I've said all along I thought he was too small for Pavlik and Kelly could put a career ending hurt on the boy.

    Fight Pavlik = 48.48%

    Rematch Martinez at 154 = 38.38%

    Fight Cintron = 13.13%

    Williams is currently negotiating a fight with Cintron in May. I'll ask one more time: Can we officially dump the "most feared fighter" bull**** now?

    He should give Martinez a rematch at 154.

    He lost to Martinez in a very close fight the first time so I think Martinez and the world deserve to see the rematch.
