Respected columnist Dan Rafael has the latest details on ESPN today. Going to the Home Depot Center. The doubters about this fight occurring really need to sit down now. Props to Williams for taking another difficult fight. Paul Williams isn't out trying to line up fights with Sergio Mora and Miguel Espino, that's for sure. Once he polishes off Cintron he'll either get a rematch against could be MW champ Sergio Martinez or he'll sign to fight Pavlik, only to watch it get postponed another time or two.
Should be great. Will be interesting to see if Williams can avoid Cintron's power for the whole fight.
Yeah my father told me yesterday he heard it was gonna be in Cali... But I didn't say anything because I thought it was going to be on the East Coast, and I thought the old man might have been mistaken... Guess the old man ain't no fool.
I know you're gonna think I'm bullshittin but I like Cintron. he's actually my favorite active Rican fighter. I think his reputation is a little undeserved....
Good news! I favor Paul to grind out a TKO, but he can't afford to eat too much leather from Cintron even in victory. It'll be a good gauge to see how his defense is coming along.
Can PW take Cintrons power? Yea i think so if not then he is screwed. PW is almost like Margarito. Uses volume for defense so he is there to be hit. I honestly dont think Cintron hits as hard as people say but its a fact that he will land a right hand on PW and Martinez was able to shake up PW with flush shots.
When Paul disposes of the cry baby he'll have his sights set on Pavlic. Only Pavlic will break out with a couple of yeast infections only to have them mysteriously cure right after Paul signs to fight someone else.
Tough fight for Paul. I'm giving him the edge 60/40. What weight? He giving gum service to 147 or is he fighting there? Williams will never get in the ring with Pavlik. After Williams, Goosen knows what he has.
