Goossen: Paul Williams Wants Mayweather/Mosley at 147 - Boxing News
Printable View
A better post would have been labeled "Mosley/Mayweather want no part of Paul Williams." And you could list a couple more top welterweights.
You need to read the article again:Quote:

pw is willing to go back to 147 if it's mosley or floyd but won't do it if it's for clottey.
Mosley already stated that he wants none of Williams.
If Mosley doesn't want it with Williams, what makes Williams think Floyd will ? ;D
Williams should forget 147, He won't get any fights there. He is too damn big.
He can be dominant at 154 and 160.
Mosley and Mayweather does not want to fight Paul for it's a high risk low reward fight for them. They might as well fight the cash cow and smaller fighter in PAC.
I dont remember caring what you think about a better post....hop offQuote:

floyd/mosley avoiding williams and williams avoiding clottey.
Since when are either Floyd or Mosley avoiding either of those guys? Didn't Floyd retire the same summer Williams KO'd Quintana? And then when he came back it's just been Marquez, whom he fought while Williams had another fight lined up right? Didn't Williams camp make an offer to Clottey for a fight? I believe they did but it was dismissed as a 'low-ball' offer and Williams signed to fight Martinez. Clottey was set to go with Quintana but that fight was scrapped when Williams' fight with Pavlik went out.Quote:

If Berto beats Shane be prepared for "Floyd is ducking Berto" threads :pQuote:

Shane is ducking Paul Williams but Shane always ducks people he intends to fight, remember a few years ago when he said he wanted none of Margarito because he wasn't ready. Years later he fought and beat him. But Shane doesn't have the years to do that again
clottey turned down a fight with williams since williams wanted it at 154. williams will only go down to 147 for a mosley or floyd fight but not for clottey.Quote:

williams called out mosley and floyd but never heard from both.
I read that the other day & Goosen makes some good points about all the crap about Mayweather ducking people. I also think a Mayweather-Williams fight is more likely than the others because they're both affiliated with Al Haymon.
Although I really do doubt Williams can make 147 any more seeing as he wouldn't come down to fight Martinez at 154.

I read the article and that is a quote from someone other than PBF. You can write your own article, say the same thing, quote yourself, and it still doesn't mean PBF would fight Paul Williams. Thats not what PBF is saying or even indicating. Paul has been calling out all of the named welterweights from Cotto to Mosley to Mayweather and now Pac. I'm not trying to put the boycott of Paul Williams all on PBF, because everybody always says PBF ducks everyone. I do think PBF is the only who can beat Paul Williams. But as far as fighting Paul Williams, none of them want that problem.
