Pac vs Bradley shouldn't do anything close to 1.5 million buys since no one really knows who bradley is, probably do 1.1 or something like that, so it really shouldn't be compared to floyd's cotto fight (but it will).
Thank you for pointing that out.......

I wonder who will remember that on this board before they point out how disappointing Pac's numbers are when he fights....

And after being KO'ed by Martinez and so-called beat by Lara. You still don't hear no one calling out Paul Williams, why because fighter are still scared to death of fighting Paul Williams. No one other then Chavez Jr is ducking Martinez and that's a fact.
Yo bigface the reason no one is calling Williams out is because he aint the business anymore and it wouldnt do much for them. Dude took a huge step back over the last year or two. No one wants to fight Martinez including Manny, my boy Floyd, Chavez or honestly anyone. He is the toughest fight out there in my book. Now u know if I feel that Floyd doesnt want to fight him then it must mean sumthin because that is hard for me to say haha. Got Em!!

paul Williams turned down a rematch with Lara which hbo was going to pay good money for and fought ishida on showtime for less money instead. he also turned down molina so yeah, not even close to being the most feared.

and what do you mean to imply by "so-called beat by lara"? He CLEARLY was beat by lara, so bad was the decision to this day all three judges are still suspended indefinitely. Clear as day robbery.
Agreed again. Thats twice 2-0 lol. Got Em!!

Golden Boy is conisidering Paul Williams for Canelo in Sept. Well Well if this fight goes down we will see just how good Canelo is..
Paul Williams is a G, he gets KO'ed by Martinez, then in his next he doesn't fight a bum or a soft touch he fights a tuff Lara, then goes on to fight the guy that KO's Kirkland in one round in Ishida. And you so called fans of boxing want to disrespect a True Warrior that never ducked anyone his whole career. And most of the same guys want to call Margarito cheating ass and Rios I can't make weight ass warriors.. WOW.. Put Cotto, Kirkland, or Molina in the ring with Paul Williams and bet he beats 2 out of the three or he beats all 3. This is coming from a guy that thinks Paul Williams is past his prime too.
I aint disrespecting Paul at all and I still think he can get back in this race but I dont think he wants none of Canelo and in fact he would probably get knocked out by Canelo and it would probably end his career. I think after Martinez KO'd him he wears that fear on his sleeves more than most and he just doesnt look the same. I would love to see that fight but I think Canelo would smash! Got Em!!

Never knew the criteria to being a boxing fan was considering Paul Williams the most feared man in boxing. No one said Williams can't handle himself in the ring anymore, just that feared label is a thing of the past. If he does fight Canelo that's exactly the point, whether he wins or loses, there's no way they'd risk Canelo's undefeated record and star power to the "most feared man in boxing".

If Canelo beats Paul Williams he will be ready for Mayweather or any other top 154lber. Not once did I say you are not a boxing fan if you don't root for P-Dub. I'm just saying that Paul William don't duck anyone and he doesn't fight bums, so boxing fans should respect him a TRUE WARRIOR.. And if or when Canelo vs Williams happens I think Paul will beat Canelo..

Canelo aint taking that fight. Paul Williams poises problems for him that he doesn't usually have to deal with. I would pick Williams if that fight were to happen even though hes obviously not feared any more.

Paul Williams vs Canelo is a good, good fight.

I guess Kirkland won't be ready till October from his injury so that's why he's not available.

Beating Williams is a good win for Canelo but let me tell you something - it does nothing to help him be ready for Mayweather. What Canelo needs to do is get some experience against a counter puncher. Lara for example is a great fight (although he'd probably lose). Canelo has really never fought any good counter punchers in his entire career and he has no real amateur experience either. What is he going to do when he gets in the ring with a guy like floyd and he's never even faced a counter puncher before? Most everyone canelo has ever fought comes forward and that's about it.

What do u mean if he beats Williams he would be ready fro Mayweather? Do u think he would beat Mayweather if he beats Williams? Not sure what being ready means? Whether he beats Williams or not he wouldnt beat Mayweather regardless in my book so Im not sure he will ever be ready for Mayweather. To me Mayweather wont lose a fight unless he stays in to long and lets father time hit him in the ring. Thats the tough thing about boxing and sports in general. Not sure when to hang it up or when that day will come that u decline right on the spot. Got Em!!

I probably wouldnt take that fight either right now but pretty much at this time he has to fight good fighters to continue to make his name and come up so Williams is about right though. I mean I would fight Williams before I would fight Cotto if I was Canelo. Got Em!!

why do people hate/doubt canelo so damn much, cat seems humble and very respectful. Give canelo his props, he seems to be willing to fight anyone they throw at him, good thing for him he has good promoters so they tone him down a bit. Besides who the fuck was manny "peds" pacquiao and floyd "gets off on beating women" mayweather fighting at the age of 21?? should we go back and discredit all those fights

pretty sure pac won a major title at 21.

anyways canelo is dope.

what people are saying are just a couple things. one is he's not ready for mayweather. that's not a diss just the honest truth.

the other isn't really Canelos fault, but the wbc has obviously done a lot of things to give him easy fights and of course he won the belt fighting a terrible opponent who wasn't even in the weight class in Matthew Hatton. so some people are annoyed by that while the rest of the 154 pound division are beating eachother up. people don't like when guys get special treatment, especially if they really haven't accomplished much.

but like I said canelo is dope, he can be a huge star. fighting Williams is definitely the right path to become a credible champion.

I know Mayweather won a major title at 21 also so I dont know what dude is talking about. I also like Canelo and think he is dope so maybe he is referring to other folks. Got Em!!
