    I remember at some point a few months ago there were rumors of williams-cintron. That'd be a good one too.

    Yeah I think style wise it may be an interesting fight. I'm hoping Cintron/Cotto goes through though that would be a great fight as well.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    On a somewhat related note, if Pacquiao goes up to 154 and wins a title by beating Foreman, would Mayweather feel compelled to do the same?

    He may fight someone of a higher caliber hopefully, such as Williams or Martinez.

    I mean let's be honest Yuri Foreman IS the Paulie Malignaggi of the light middleweight division (style, skill and power wise) Which means he has a very low danger factor against someone with superior hand and footspeed (e.g. Pacquiao)

    On a related note I would love to see them both move up and both lose.

    DIVA SMACK............

    Yeah, I would like to see that. But it would probably have to be at 154. I too think PWill's body has grown out of reaching down to 147. He has been in the higher weights for too lond and if he did make 147 I think it would be a mistake. Mosley/Williams at 154 is the fight. Unless PBF was willing to go 154. And Pac/Foreman is a farce. Roach is looking for the path of least resistance to history. Paper accomplishments. David Diaz at 135, war ridden and drained Cotto at 145 for his title, You'reWho Foreman I mean Yuri Foreman at 154... Give us respectable fights Pac if this is to be your last year.

    when i was watching funeka-guzman, i was thinking its a poor man's version of mayweather-williams. if this happened though, i think mayweather will win a clear but tough fight.

    I agree David Diaz was the easy choice at 135 and that Foreman would be the easy choice at 154 although because of the size disparity, it will be a more difficult fight than many may think. Cotto was not the path of least resistance. No way. That isn't giving Cotto the credit he deserves. Cotto was a legitimate welterweight, a top three welterweight. In regards to the weight, Cotto weighed 145 for his last fight and had no problems making the weight in the actual fight. Also, in terms of a career, Pacquiao has definitely NOT taken the path of least resistance.

    To see a good example of a path of least resistance, just go check Mayweather's resume over the last four or five years.

    Williams is the wrong fight for Shane. Shane had trouble with Vernon and the same would happen with Williams. He knows that and won't get in the ring with Williams. A Cotto rematch would be a good fight for Shane assuming he gets by Berto. PBF won't fight him or any other legitimate welterweight.

    Doubt it would happen but very interesting bout....

    I would like to see how Floyd handles a guy that tall and rangy with the work rate Williams has.....

    I would also like to see if Williams can manage to fight tall and not get in close giving Floyd a chance to counter......

    If not for the height I go with Floyd but again if Williams gives the height away then that takes away any advantage he has technically
