Williams v. Cintron? who are you picking?

Paul Williams should win by decision- Kermit Cintron strikes me as a punk and I've never liked him as a person or as a fighter, especially after he cried when Antonio Margarito originally knocked him out and then he talked all this smack prior to the rematch and taunted Margarito at the press conference and then in the rematch, he got beaten just as bad as he did in the first fight and quit on his knees while taking the full count. And then complaining about how he was "robbed" after he got his a$$ kicked against Sergio Martinez and Martinez on the other hand who just gave Cintron a beat-down didn't cry robbery at all even though he, along with everyone who saw the fight knew that he had just gotten robbed of a victory.

However, Cintron does have a chance to win this fight due to his great power and underrated boxing ability that he showed us in his win over Alfredo Angulo, but I just don't think that he's good enough in either of those categories to top Williams. I think Williams is has far too much heart & determination (which Cintron has none of) and is just too big, too tall, too fast, and too much of a volume puncher for Cintron to handle and Williams should win a decision, although it very well could be close but I think it will be unanimous with Williams outworking Cintron who will try to hold on and make the fight ugly. Part of my answer is based on their performances against their common opponents:

~ Antonio Margarito- Cintron quit in both fights in the mid-rounds after Margarito administered a beating on him whereas Williams defeated him in a close but clear unanimous decision and took all of his best punches without ever going down or even flinching, which is something that Cintron obviously wasn't able to do. And I don't think that Margarito cheated against Cintron, especially in the first fight because the first fight was before his loss to Williams and many people speculate that the Williams loss is what made Margarito start cheating in the first place.

~ Sergio Martinez- Cintron lost this fight twice; first he was knocked out but was still allowed to continue and then he got outboxed for the rest of the fight only to receive a gift draw in a crappy fight that was made crappy by him- he fought like a punk in that fight and held Martinez every single time he would throw a combination because he knew he couldn't match his handspeed, so his only shot was to catch Martinez with big shots and hope that they were enough to win the fight. Williams on the other hand fought Martinez like a warrior and had one of the best fights of the year against him- both were dropped in the first round and they went after each other for the rest of the fight with Martinez winning the early rounds, Williams winning the middle rounds, and the late rounds going back and forth and being very hard to score. Williams ended up winning a majority decision but the fight was close enough to go either way and the one judge who only gave Martinez 1 round must have smoked some good stuff before the fight to allow him to go into la-la land while watching the fight.

EDIT: Williams won a 4 round technical split decision- it was a crappy ending to a crappy fight although it was starting to heat up with Williams starting to get into his rhythm before Cintron acted like a punk once again. He falls out of the ring and lays on the ground for like 5 minutes and then as soon as they start to put his neck in a brace, THEN he starts saying that he can still fight- well, if he wanted to keep fighting, he had all the opportunity in the world to get up during those multiple minutes that he was on the ground but he didn't and stayed on the ground until the officials were FORCED to end the fight. Personally I thought that up to that point, the fight could have went either way but Cintron has no one to blame but himself for losing that fight and from what I saw, it looked like he was going to lose the fight anyway but you never truly know. California has a dumb rule because that fight should have been a "No Contest" or technical draw in my eyes since 4 rounds hadn't been completed but going by the rules (which is what you have to do), then Williams won fair and square because according to California rules, if the fight has even made it to the 4th round, then you go to the scorecards and Williams was ahead on 2 judges scorecards, so he won.

I say Williams. Cintron has proven nothing to me.
