    Hatton/Pac? What you thinking Rummy? He's got trouble getting WW's to fight him let-a-lone jrWW's..lol.. I like Shane too so I am hesitant to see Paul and Shane fight although it would be a great fight.

    Would be fun to see how Floyd would deal with him... but Kirkland/Williams would make for a great fight.

    I don't like watching Paul Williams fight. It reminds me so much of the Olympics. I wish he had given us a Ko. If you are gonna win, try your best to give us a good ol fashion KO. But, I was afraid once the fight started looking the way it did early, it would be a boring tap tap performance. And I was right. And the reason I know it is tap tap, is because of the high volume of punches he throws, he doesn't put a lot into his punches.

    I really don't know who he should fight next (lack of interest), but whoever it is , most likely there will be no knock down or ko by Paul.

    I am certain the Hatton and Pac fight will give us a Ko, and that is what makes it so intriguing.

    Kirkland's got to build himself up a little more. Maybe one of the other 154 title holders though.

    I say bring on The Ghost. Good match-up IMO and fan friendly fight.

    The sickest thing is, Mosley will probably jump at the opportunity to fight Williams!

    :lol:

    He's a sick ****ing ******* who ALWAYS wants to fight the best, even when it seems ill-advised.

    I would not be the least bit surprised if Williams-Mosley happens this year, but I really hope it doesn't come to that.

    Too much risk for Mosley at this time.

    Paul just had 3 straight KO's in 3 different divisions before this fight. Winky's one of the few fighters that are almost impossible to KO! Did Winky's face look like it got tap-tapped?:-(

    I voted Calzaghe, kind of as a joke (although I would want to see it), but Pavlik-Williams makes the most sense to me.

    I think Shane wants Hatton/Pac winner and he's earned that kind of payday so more power to him. I know he really wants Floyd though! I'd like to see that one. It is too much risk for Shane to fight Paul with the huge paydays in the above mentioned fights.

    I agree. Mosley should actively target Pac/Hatton and Floyd, with Mayweathe being top priority.

    Shane SHOULD avoid Williams, but Mosley is ****ing crazy, so I wouldn't be surprised if Mosley started calling him out.

    So did I. I doubt Calzaghe would ever come back but I think Paul could actually beat him despite the size difference and I have a pretty high opinion of Joe's ability. Honestly, I've wanted Williams/Pavlik rather than Pavlik/Abraham for awhile. Abraham/Sturm should fight but Abraham's promoter apparently wants the Pavlik fight more, or so it seems at the moment. The winners of each fight could face off for MW supremacy. Paul seems better suited at 154 right now but he may just have all the skills to make up for size until he makes a permanent move into 160 and above.

    Felix Sturm, because the two other champs Pav and AA should fight against each other first. Sturm really should stop to duck the good fighters. Even with the excellent performance Williams showed against Wright I believe he is only the No. 4 in the division. He's definitely no hype job though and would've his chances against the top 3.
