"If I can't walk, then, oh well. 'Hakuna Matata,' [No Worries]. I'll be on a boat fishing," Williams said.
I mean... wow.

Bad news to hear. Hope he recovers well and obviously this goes without saying that any type of serious motorcycle accident can cripple absolutely anybody from lanky to body builder but do you think the fact that he is lanky and doesnt have as much muscle support all around impacted or added to the severity of the injury? Perhaps when he recovers and starts rehab if he is able to walk again he should put on muscle mass. All the best to him.Last edited by {Pito}; 05-30-2012, 08:38 AM.

Here's hoping for a miracle.
But if i can take one thing out of this article its that he seems at peace with himself and happy;and therefore Im happy for him! Screw his boxing career, the man is obviously even just as talented outside of the ring as he was in it. I hope he does get to sit on a boat everyday the rest of his life, fish and drink many beers... I hope your surgery goes well today champ, WAR PWILL!!
