    Would be nice to see Ishida drop the Punisher. Williams got way too comfortable being able to diet to fight smaller guys with his bigger frame. I never bought that most feared fighter business... he had power and was busy, but was fighting the wrong fight for a while now and won on punch output. I think he needed a better trainer when he looked gassed edging out Margacheato... and still does.
    The first Martinez fight, a lot of people thought he lost. He was getting bested before Cintron jumped out of the ring... and then he got blasted out by Martinez. I want to see Williams in with hungry fighters that pose a threat. I want to seem him a fight for his life, not a return back to square one, where hes outsizing and out swinging opponents... and people are running for their life.
    I don't think Martinez owes him anything at this point. If he beat Martinez convincingly or stopped him in the first fight. Yeah sure, its one a piece and we need to know who's better. Martinez knocking Paul down in the first fight opened a lot of peoples eyes. The second fight did even more. Martinez going up in weight and beating a guy in Pavlik, that Williams couldn't eventually come to terms with... said even more. It all made Martinez look like a guy with desire that needed a stage... and Williams, a guy who was given a stage regardless of his desire.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    I'm just suprised at how the general feel is this is just a formality in Williams reclaiming status. We're not talking a close hard fought loss....we're talking a definitive flat ou face first detonation of a fighter, kod in as dramatic a fashion as you'll see. Really off that I don't think ge needs to be on the air at first at all. Williams is not a newby but being thrust back into spotlight can do a number mentally. You don't get a chance to comeback from these often. Dude don't need to be babied but bring him back on some undercard, feed him a gloved steak of an opponent and work off the kinks. Bouncing back right at top billing not only is undeserved but more importantly imo is unwise.
