Williams is a freak of nature. Welterweights wont fight him, I doubt any ww champs have the balls to fight him. I think he could make ww still, but that window is closing, some douche will probably call him out at ww, once he shows trouble making it. I think PW is the most underrated boxer right now, people actually think Kermit Cintron was gonna beat him if that fight went on, thats the kind of credit he gets. If he never lost that Quintana fight I wonder what people would be saying?

Telling ya,weights are incidental for this one. Its unfortunately becoming more common with catch weight crap'olla. Sacrafice enough greenbacks and they will both wink and nod. I expect Williams to come in the ring well north of agreed number 'unofficially'. Martinez won't melt away and it'll still come off. More and more I think Martinez wins this via bloody and standing TKO on Williams in the late rounds. Great rematch and should see many fireworks before its all said and done.

Why is that the case if Williams is already at 162?

Can someone explain to me (because I don't know) is dropping 19 pounds in a month before a fight easy to do? Is it done regularly?

I just think any fight entered into these days as a catchweight is open to tweeking. Wouldn't shock me if they switch up official weights last minute, whatever penalties it may mean and no doubt both fatten up after weigh in just a bit. The coming off was refering to fight actually happening regardless.
