Have alot of respect for Santos,but I think Williams at Jr.Middle is a beast.May be way to sharp for him at this point.Quote:

Williams is drifting to where the money is at.....and it is not here with Santos Imo.I think Williams takes Santos out,just too fresh and sharp.He really has the best of both worlds but I wonder if that weight roller-coaster will take a toll ?Quote:

To be honest Daniel Santos didn't beat Antonio Margarito and got a gift decision IMO, as for Paul Williams its funny because he is now in the same position Antonio Margarito was, i think he should stay between 154-160, Welterweight drains him too much. I would love to see Forrest vs Williams i don't think Forrest is the kind of guy to duck anyone.Quote:

Then I think Margarito needs to fight Daniel Santos or Paul Williams again to prove that he was really "robbed" in those defeats...Quote:

Well i think Paul Williams beat Antonio Margarito clearly, so Antonio Margarito needs to fight him again for certain, thats the only legit loss on Margarito's resume IMO, because the other losses were when he was a teenager except Santos, Williams, but i thought he beat Santos no question.Quote:

I think Margarito proved in the rematch he was the better man, and i haven't seen anyone who thinks Santos deserved to win there fight.
He wasn't robbed in the WIlliams fight. Williams is a good fighter and Margarito just started too slow. Nothing wrong with that fight, win or lose. Margarito showed himself pretty well in that fight. Even though I lost quite a bit of money on that fight last summer (well I guess 2 summers ago now).
Margarito could fight him again and win. This would be a good fight, but as I have expressed in another thread, I want Margarito to fight a gimmie mandatory before another crazy ass fight. He won't be around long with his style, and no need to rush it.
Margarito has no need to fight Santos again. It isn't his weight division, he could fight him again and win, but it is really a silly point to make. Santos isn't where the money is (as said above). I would rather Margarito stay active against mandatories then jack with Santos.
What amazes me is how many sports writers and boxing websites had Margarito winning, now im a fan of Margarito but no way did he win that fight, Williams dominated the first 6 rounds, then Margarito did make a good comeback but i thought when Williams clearly won the 12th round, that sealed the deal. I believe i had Williams ahead by 3 rounds.Quote:

Or go after any of the 154 champs (Philips, Forrest, Dzinziruk)...
.
I did not think the fight was a robbery at all it was close and ended early still find it a lose for Margrito i thought Santos was rocking him doing well. I think at that weight it takes away to many things that make Margirto a elite his size advantage plays heavy on his sucess i say stay at WW.
Williams will get his shot when Williams deserves one.....He needs to be a consistant champion...Fight opp in the top ten and stop insisting he should only fight the Cottos and the such....
Williams could be a huge star in this sport but his attitude is all wrong to become one....I dont understand why guys think that one or two wins over top guys means they are the sports biggest things going
