JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) -- Former first-round draft pick Troy Williamson never really got along with coach Brad Childress in Minnesota.

His feelings haven't changed since leaving there, either.

Williamson, now in Jacksonville, said Wednesday he lost respect for his former coach last year and would like to "duke it out" with him when the Jaguars host the Vikings on Sunday.

"We can meet on the 50-yard line and we can go at it," Williamson said.

The 6-foot-1, 200-pound receiver said he liked his chances against Childress, too, especially with a few inches and at least 10 pounds on the coach. Williamson even said he would fight with both hands tied behind his back.

Childress countered by saying, "He must not be aware there's a buffer zone between the opponents."

Childress initially said he wasn't "biting" on Williamson's comments, but when pressed about his height and weight on a conference call, he responded: "Do you need my reach? I'm not like a woman; I'll give you my weight. It's 190 pounds of twisted steel and rompin', stompin' dynamite. Is that enough humor for you?"

Perfect, coach.

Now back to the fight. Williamson didn't say whether he wanted a boxing match, a WWE-style showdown or maybe something edgier, like a mixed martial arts cage match.

Either way, Vikings defensive end Jared Allen knows who he would bet on if there was a River City Rumble.

"Coach Childress is a tough-minded guy," Allen said. "And he has a bad ... mustache."

Please do, then we can get a new coach for that pathetic guy

I am looking at that, and I am guessing you are a Packers fan and will say Erin Rodgers

BTW, the draft that year was horrible, 1-10:

Alex Smith

Ronnie Brown

Braylon Edwards

Cedric Benson

Cadillac Williams

PacMan Jones

Troy Williamson

Antrel Rolle

Carlos Rogers

Mike Williams

I think Edwards is the only one that has gone to the Pro Bowl, maybe I am wrong, but I think so, and this year he has dropped a ton of passes. Jones has the ability, but needs to keep his nose clean, and I kinda doubt that will ever happen.
