Originally posted by Woosha View PostWas just checking out ring.tv & come across an article regarding the possible return date for Williams, Goossen is lookin at April 30 & against a 'significant' HBO level opponent & not a soft touch. Fight will probably take place at 147.
Interesting to see Williams & his trainer are going with the lucky punch theory aswell...

If P-Will can get on a winning streak, I wouldn't be surpried if HBO forced a Berto-Williams fight. They're both backed heavily by HBO and I can see P-Will trying to go after Berto's belt.

Originally posted by Rocky Rode View PostI thought the same thing, but then I realized there is literally nothing for P-Will at 154.Money wise there isn't any big name fight at 154. Angulo might never fight again. Cintron quit against him. Cotto is already tied up with Mayorga/Margarito. Who else is there in that division for P-Will? Atleast if he goes to 147 he has a (small) chance for a big money fight.
at 154 lbs, he can do what hopkins did and rule the division with an iron fist, all the while perfecting his craft and skills. when 147 lbers outgrow their division, he can get fights with them. then he can move up to 160 lbs or higher cause he'll actually have skills to fall back on.

even though his problems are this
Originally posted by Pullcounter View Postyep. even his trainer refuses to acknowledge that pwill is seriously lacking in boxing skill... instead of imrpoving pwill, his team is intent on running back to 147 lbs to hide the fact that pwill is an unskilled brawler with no power, no chin, and no defense. it's pretty pathetic.

Originally posted by Walt Liquor View Postmajor flaw in your logic is that pwill was fighting 2 weight classes up from where he really campaigned. he just went up in weight for fights. he's never proven he couldn't make weight. its not like he fought most of his career at mw, the VAST MAJOIRTY of his career has been at ww.
besides, the fool that wrote the post I was originally answering said that once you get tapped like that, your career is over- which is not true, many atg's and hof fighters have cmoe back from one punch ko's.
so there was no flaw in my logic if you look at the post I was answering.
For example, Marg let the world know how to beat Cotto, Pac followed that blueprint. The difference is that Cotto is actually going out of his way to work with guys that can help him improve his game.
Quintana(who is, if i'm not mistaken 5`10 not 8 and a half) showed the world how to beat Williams and Martinez perfected it. Sadly, instead of trying to better himself as a boxer he'd rather drop back down to a weight where, to be 100% honest, his physical attributes, not skill are what make him a threat.
