BIG Fights coming up at Welterweight Division !!

[ClubberLang]

Aside the the already signed Hoya vs. PAC fight, the following welterweight fights are under negotiations right now:

Paul Williams vs. Joshua Clottey WBO and IBF unification fight...

Where have you heard about this being negotiated? Last I heard, Dan Rafael said this wasn't happening because of bad blood between Al Haymon and Bob Arum plus there wasn't enough money to satisfy both sides for the Nov. 29 BAD date. I think the Williams fight has already been offered to Delvin Rodriguez, per Rafael's notebook. I will be happy if something has changed though. An unification fight makes a lot of sense for these guys.

I think Clottey can beat Williams

Anyone else?

Clottey and Williams are my favorite boxers at welter... I don't care much on who wins this match-up....

I think the winner here will become the man at welter...

Excerpt from the article:

"What happens to Clottey and Cotto?
Arum said that plans are underway to negotiate a match between IBF titleholder Clottey and another feared boxer, WBO titleholder Paul Williams, in a unification contest.

The winner between Mosley and Margarito will probably face Cotto in June, said Arum."

Interesting, thanks. My guess is they will try to do this early next year and not on Nov. 29. I'm pretty certain they've already given that fight to Rodriguez. But glad Arum says it is being negotiated.

Berto/ Collazo is a great match-up!

Margarito/ Mosley will be interesting for me. I don't see Margarito stopping Shane. I may be in the minority here but I think Sugar Shane pulls of the upset in a tough as nails fight!

Williams/ Clottey is also another big match-up. I think Williams would take a decision.

The match-up I want to see is Margarito/ Williams 2!!!

Margarito vs Williams would be exciting. The winner of that will be the man at the welter.

Regarding Margarito vs Mosley, I agree with you that Mosley would be a tough fight for Margo.

Berto Collazo is interesting, but Berto should be fighting the real elite now he holds the WBC belt

It will be interesting to see how well he does compared to Mosley against Collazo, I think after that fight should he win, Cintron, Cotto or Quintana should happen.
