[nflman2033]

Bute dropped Andrade with a straight left and then a body shot put him down in the 4th .yawn....

Paul Williams vs. Sergio Martinez on HBO Saturday night.....shoul dbe a great great fight.....

yeah the undercard was better Ali Funeka is freaking sick, 6'1" and can make 135

I am pumped up for Saturday love watching Paul Williams and curious to see how Arreola bounces back from the loss to Vitali

I hear that Paul Williams is the most avoided boxer in the sport, so I'm interested in watching him. Is dude really that much of a problem for guys like PBF, Cotto, and Pacquiao?

quick description of Paul williams for ya.... 6 foot 2 inches averages around 80 to 90 punches a round doesnt dance around and is always coming forward likes to mix it up.... has power in both hands and a solid chin... beat Margarito when he was fighting with loaded gloves stood there toe to toe with him for 12 rounds and won..... and has opened challenged anyone from 147 to 168... i would simply say he is a problem for anyone especially at 147 or 154.... none of them want him at that weight.... PERIOD

Paul Williams reach is pretty ridiculous.

Imagine if Kevin Durant was a boxer, that's how long his arms are lol...

Don recall him calling anyone out at 168. He would be biting off far to much if he fought any elite 168 lber. He doesnt have enough pop to get anyones attention at 168.

ill see if i can find the article....... but thats what he claimed not really sure he could climb that far either.... at least not yet.... as he gets older he could finish at 168 possibly 175 if he fights to 35 or older.....

Paul Williams/Martinez fight was a damn good one...Martinez kept catching Williams like crazy and the final scorecard by one judge was TOTAL BULLSHIT. I'm looking for JR...I know he was watching...

[nflman2033]

yeah, I had it 114-114, and thought that if there was a winner it should have been Martinez, 119-110 is the worst scorecard i have seen yet, and there has been some horrible ones this year, that is the worst, look at Paul Williams face at the end of the fight, did it look like a guy who won every round but one, hell even Paul Williams said he knew he needed to win the last couple rounds, and a fighter always thinks he wins every round. That guy needs to be forced to watch the fight again and explain to someone exactly how they figured he won every round and give reasons to why he felt that it went that way, and any stupid answers he gets electric shock, plus they need to video it and let us all see

[davie]

Someone scored Calzaghe - Hopkins 116-111. Just pointing out that some judges are favourable, some judges are plain retarded.

[JrRawlins]

Great fight.... While i was happy Williams got teh decision.. 119-110 is fucking stupid and puts a damper on a great fight.... Martinex had a great gameplan even though i thought he held alittle too much.... Paul Williams needs a better corner.... they dont adjust to shit, they just let him fight the same style.... he is so atheltic that it usually doesnt matter... but the better figther he faces the more the atheltic gap will close.. i thought Martinez's power really began to show in the late rounds.... Williams needs better defense asap..... i still think he would destroy Pavlik.. i think Martinez would also, consideirng Pavlik struggles with fighters that move.... i want to watch the fight one more time before i start saying scores and stuff... but my initial thought was a draw or Martinez won....
