Avoid Paul at all cost is the cry in 08. Floyd,Citron,Cotto are all scared to death. THE BOOGIE MAN COMETH.
Why would a fan of Cotta be afraid of him facing Williams? If you are a fan of a fighter, you should want fights like that. I am a fan of Cotto and would love to see that fight. If he wins, great, if he loses, better luck next time. Same goes for Williams. I would rather see my favorite fighters fight the best and get their asses handed to them, than to see them fighting unworthy opponents and wasting their talent.

I also guarantee that Cotto or even most fighters worth their weight are not afraid of fighting anyone else, you can blame that on the promoter's etc.
