if no one is willing to fight him except for a margo rematch?
i thought cintron was going to fight him?
if he cant get big fights he should wipe out guys like clottey, urkal, collazo until someone gives him another shot.

Williams is only irrelevent because everybodys avoiding him.Can't blame them, he's a big risk, low reward.If anything , Margarito may get a rematch, but I'm not so sure Williams wants that, for the same reason Cintron, Cotto, Mosley, and Mayweather don't want Paul.Sometimes the ducker becomes the duckee and visa versa.

What has Williams done - other than beat an over hyped Margarito.
His name doesn't put asses in seats - that's what gets you a shot at the big names. All he has to do is keep winning and he'll get his shot.
Exactly he just needs to fight the top ranked available guys and win...and eventually you get a chance for big money fights.

He shouldn't just expect a big showdown. Beat some ranked contenders to improve his rankings with the ABCs until he becomes a mandatory or just until he is such a name that people want him for the bucks. Beating Margarito doesnt entitle you to fight the big names.

The division should clearup once the Hatton vs Mayweather fight is over. He should be getting one of the better fighters and a belt very soon.

Winner of (2)Cotto - (3)Mosley meets winner of (1)Mayweather - (4)Hatton
then Cintron vs. Williams. Winner of that gets winner of the "final four" above.
one champion in 147What are you doing up so early?

Williams is irrelevant at this point.
Why? Because he would lace Floyd? :lol:

He's making the same mistake that Margarito made for so many years. Holding on to a WBO belt that don't mean shit. all that belt is doing is keeping the other originizatons from ranking him. He should dump the belt and the originizations with better known fighters as their champions will inevitably rank him as a mandatory eventually.

Unfortunately for Williams, he's stuck on the outside looking in.
He should take the Margo rematch.
Unless he wants to move up in weight?
But I think he should stay put, fight Margarito, and weight for the smoke to clear. He'll get his chance....he's too damned good not to. It just may take longer than he'd like to hit the bigtime spotlight.

Im not sure Margarito want one at this point ether , since it has been rumored that he may get to face the winner of the shane or cotto .

I think a Margo rematch is a good fight for Williams, if he can wipe the floor with Margo then he will definately get some HBO props

i think he should fight alfonso gomez, easy fight, doubt gomez is stupid enough to not take the fight, and i think it would capture the public's attention enough to help put p-will name out there

He can't the only person that will fight Williams is Margo because he wants revenge. Willaims will be ducked by everyone else at 147. He'll have to move up to 154 to get big fights.

That or maybe because he was about to be stripped by the WBO if he didn't face Williams.

bob arum wanted that, arum wanted margo to drop the wbo and have a mega fight with cotto, team margo refused so arum to them to court.

How the fuck is he getting avoided when the top guys are fighting each other? Or do you want them to schedule a fight now, before they fought each other?
This shit is ridiculous

4 of the top guys are fighting each other, they have plans to fight each other after that,
there is cintron, judah, collazo, clottey and a few others who aren't fighting anyone.
