Re: Paul Williams vs Kermit Cintron
It was a really slow fight and yeah Cintron had edged 2 of the first 3 rounds (it's ridiculous to score the 4th California), but NO WAY he should have won that fight. Sorry but the convulsions on the ground was to much, if Williams, Cotto or anyone else had fallen out of the ring they would have NEVER let the fight finish like that. Look at Yuri Foreman hobbling around on one leg and then compare that to Cintron hyperventilating on the ring apron floor and compare those two pictures. Ridiculous, how can a guy who let the fight be stopped when it shouldn't have be completely robbed? California's rule is dumb anyways it should have been a no contest and NO winner.
Also if you discount the Margarito losses you still have the travesty that was the Martinez fight. Honestly how could Cintron be robbed though? If that was Williams' second loss that would have been TERRIBLE, because no fighter really won that fight not even close but one probably did come close to just giving up.
Re: Paul Williams vs Kermit Cintron
I had Cintron up 3-0. He was landing the cleaner punches and Williams couldn't get anything going. It was like he didn't warm up before getting out there.
Round 4 looked like the fight was going to get really interesting. Williams started to press Cintron but even then, Cintron landed the bigger shots.

I didn't. I had Cintron winning or it was very close.
Now that it has come out that Margarito is a cheat, and Cintron's only losses came against him, isn't it fair to say that maybe we should rethink that Cintron lacks courage?
No see the Sergio Martinez fight.
He was outboxed. Outclassed. But, did he lack courage?
Yes for claiming he was headbutted when he was KO'ed.
Re: Paul Williams vs Kermit Cintron
Cintron dove out, he didnt even try and grab the ropes, just dove out. I wouldnt doubt it if he thought he was ahead and was going for the easy win. He even said he wasnt hurt afterwards, but was on the ground a mighty long time. I dont even think it will be close if they rematch Williams will break him down for sure. He literally dove through the ropes....if it was legit, the guy has horrible balance.

Guy facing similar adversity should have just gotten back up.
Cintron is a joke. He'll never be a world champ again.
