Maybe it's just my opinion but Williams - Margarito is a hell of a lot better then Margarito - Cotto.

I think Margarito would be stuttering the same way confronted by Paul Williams as PBF was when faced with Margarito.
It does not just make more money,who does he get more recognition for? Who is almost or is P4P? Cotto or Williams? Face the guy who has been calling him out the longest?! You're joking right?

If Margarito had not fought Clottey,he would have been ducking him.Had he not fought Cintron,he would have been ducking him. Now he is facing Cotto,he#s ducking Williams even though Cotto is a better fighter?

He's ducking Williams even though he wants to keep his WBO title and face Williams at a later date?He's ducking Williams to get a shot at the BIG FIGHT he's been waiting for his whole life? Williams' isnt going anywhere.

You say if Margarito hadn't fought Clottey or Cintron, he'd have been ducking them... Well no, just then he wouldn't have a single fighter worth a damn on his record, and weouldn't even deserve to be in the mix. THey are talking about Cotto in June, a fight with Williams would probably be within 30 days... Let the winner of that fight face Cotto... Besides then it would be a unification match.. It's not a done deal that he's fighting Cotto either, Cotto still has a mandatory, and unlike Margarito, look's like he plans to actually take the fight first. I think your kind of discrediting WIlliams or making it out to be that he's not as big a name or he vs Cotto wouldn't be a big fight... Look at it this way, if Margarito vs Williams happens, whoever wins that one will make for a bigger fight with Cotto then would be the case if Tony were to just vacate his title and fight some bum waiting around for his "big shot" as usual. IMO, both Williams and Cotto would beat Margarito, so I can understand why he's trying to make the biggest payday... Kind of sad that he'd give up his title to do so though.
