    So much for Williams-Margarito II next year.

    Given that Margarito and Arum showed no real interest in the rematch it's probably true that Williams didn't have that many good options at 147. Berto's another Haymon fighter, Cotto and Clottey are Arum fighters, Cintron was probably doubtful.

    At least Williams is one of those fighters that can probably move between divisions without too much difficulty.

    Oh please, what a load of crap. Michaelczewski/Montiel/Gonzalez have fought for world titles (WBO and others) a weight class above and remained WBO champion in their original weight class.

    ..and somebdoy ask him whether he´ll fight the real WBO chmapion and most feared man at 154 Sergei Dzinziruk. That´s the fight I wanna see.
