Re: Why doesn't Paul Williams go after Cintron?

I think this would be a good step up for him, a step up he might need before he is ready for Tony or Cotto. At the end of the day, he hasn't really beaten anyone, and he could use a name like Cintron on his resume.
Anyone know of a reason why this couldn't happen? Has this been discussed at all?
I haven't seen it discussed but I was thinking about it not too long ago and I think it's a perfect match. Both big WWs with something to prove. Cintron needs a good confidence win and what better than to beat the guy that the guy who beat you is supposedly running from. Good luck trying to understand that.
