I know my opinion may not be worth anything but besides his freakish attributes I don't see this guy as anything special. Yes and I know he throws a lot of punches but it just looks like flayling to me with no sit down power. I don't know it may just be me. He's just nothing special besides what I just mentioned. Don't flamed me just an opinion!
Williams has plenty of pop
The only thing keeping that win from being a stoppage victory was Wright's defense. The fact that he did what he did to Wright's face despite the turtle D says a lot. Paul has been punching with much more authority since that fluke loss to Quintana. There's no doubt in my mind he'll end up at the top of MW if he stays there.
im impressed with his workrate and stamina but not his punching power. his defense was ok but he's open for counter punches all night. id say guys like mosley and abraham would ko paul.
Yeah he has flaws, but his stamina and just pure punch output impress me. He's still there to be hit, but in this fight he had even better upperbody movement than before. Plus his weird angles he can come with on his punches has to trouble his opponents. He's not a perfect fighter, but so far it's worked for him.
i'm not impressed. after 2 years w/o fighting and winky last the 12 rds
at 160 p-will have nothing against the big boys
So Williams can stay at 147-154 but I don't know who will fight him.
If he just decided to go to 160 (and not go back down), he could allow his body to fill out.
I'm impressed with ANYONE that whips Winky Wright the way Paul Williams is....

I'm impressed with his workrate and the fact that he throws a good assortment of punches. But if he was in there with a strong Middleweight like Pavlik, he wont be winning.
My point exactly!!! He's good but not special, he will meet another Quintana!!!

Just imagine if somebody could train him to meet his full potential as a boxer. Sharpen him up, and that would be crazy.
Right now it is still interesting to watch Williams because of his flaws.
But I can agree; he can be sloppy and should sharpen up.
