    I don't understand that reasoning. Williams already fought him, and fought him close (win or lose). How will he get exposed?

    I know it's true, but if I point it out, eveyone accuses me of being a hater. All I'm doing is pointing out the fact the it's not all on Paul. Both parties balked on making a Williams/Martinez rematch.

    There was no "robbery" in the first Williams/Martinez fight. PDub won it by a round or two. Now diBella and Martinez want to milk that middleweight crown for all it's worth, and that means avoiding Williams.

    Let's face it: if Hopkins, Taylor, or Pavlik had called out the current version of Shane Mosely, this place would have exploded with hate threads. Martinez gets a pass.

    Williams needs to do whatever he can, DUMP Goosen and Hayman, and start fighting. Don't know what kind of **** advice Hayman is giving WIlliams, and Berto for that matter.

    Why would Sergio avoid a rematch with Williams? The first fight was highly competitive, and many (not all being idiots, incidentally) thought Sergio edged PWill out.

    Am I now a Pavlik hater as well, despite the fact that I was rooting like hell for Kelly to defeat Martinez last April??

    I keep seeing you post this, but no one ever agrees. I'll support you by pretending that Hopkins, Taylor, and Pavlik didn't fight any former welterweights or junior middleweights during their title reign. :good

    Do you read the news? Lou diBella did everything he possibly could to keep from making a Williams rematch. That's not my opinion. It is a thoroughly documented fact.
