What did this guy used to say? "I'm a warrior, I'll fight anybody from Welterweight to Middleweight at any time, Mayweather picks his fights. He will never fight me. It doesn't matter who I fight, I'll fight anybody"
He then goes and demands a catchweight against Martinez. Who is the world champion. Paul isnt the world champion. To me that is a b*tch move that he has copied from the catchweight king Pacquiao. And I don't buy the idea that Pacquiao is allowed to do it because he is "smaller" than his opponents. Floyd Mayweather Jr was naturally smaller than Genaro Hernandez, Jose Luis Castillo, Arturo Gatti, Carlos Baldomir, Oscar De La Hoya and Shane Mosley but he didnt ever demand catchweights. He just beat them. Fair and square.
What gives Williams the right to demand that? I never understood all the hype about him. Basically he has 2 good wins. Against Martinez which was extremely close and against Winky Wright. Who was coming off a 2 year layoff. He also beat Quintana but he lost to Quintana in the first fight.
How this makes him p4p #3 I do not know. Top 3 P4P fighters don't lose to guys like Carlos Quintana. It's just hype from the American media. This guy isnt the best fighter at 154 or 160lbs. I'm sorry but he isnt. And he isnt a big enough draw to ever get a fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr. Which is abit of a shame because I would love to see Floyd expose him. Although Pacquiao might fight him at a catchweight if Martinez knocks him out. But I doubt that will happen. Sergio doesnt punch hard enough to KO a Middleweight.
But I do think he will beat Williams if he fights smart.
Which is why no one should hate on him.
I feel you there, but then you should say the same about Pac, he is fighting a fight that a lot of ppl including myself, think is nothing more than TR in house money fight, but at the same time he is giving the fans more than one fight a year right...
I think Martinez does punch hard enough. If you noticed in the last fight Williams was on the canvas then hurt a few more times and held on for dear life..I think the key is landing a good sharp combination which will be lights out..
lol yea he did but it was because he was asking how can P will be p4p number 3 and he will most likely never fight the p4p number 1 or 2 guys. I do think P will is a bit of a hype job, but at the same time he is willing to fight. Now that being said not fight at the full limit for a title is BULLSH*T!!!!

He gets in the ring and fights.. to me that is a warrior.. Is he a hypejob? Most likely.. but what facinates me is that you still managed to bring Pac and Floyd into your argument.... :nonono:

Seriously,how can any fan of Floyd really create a tread about the Punisher at catchweight,then name so many fights that Floyd didn't ask for catchweights at,but then conveniently just leave out the Marquez catchweight fight in which Floyd didn't even bother making weight for??
paul williams is a beast?......lmao, some fans are hillarious they really are. paul williams is a fraudulent beast i,d say. that beast thing has me rolling on the ground laughing haaaaaahaaaaaaahaaaaaahaaaahaaaaaa, sorry folks.
Why is this? He's better than Fake Money Mayweather, I met him in 2005 and his trainer very nice guy.

1. What's so special about that? It's called boxing not fighting. Any idiot can hit someone, boxing is about hitting and not getting hit. I'm guessing you are one of those "boxing fans" that just loves pure violence rather than actual skills being displayed in the ring.
2. The post relates to Williams catchweight demands. When your mentioning catchweights in boxing you have to mention Pacquiao. I mentioned Floyd because posters on here call him a "coward" yet he never in his 41 fight career demanded a catchweight. He just beat everyone under any circumstances. He fought De La Hoya at Oscar's weight class, with handpicked gloves and in Oscar's backyard and still beat him.
1) Doesn't matter about not being a PURE boxer.. If you have guts to get in the ring and Fight, box, and get beat up or beat other for fan's entertainment that makes you a warrior... please come back with something better than just nuthugging...
2)Im pretty sure he asked for a catchweight with JMM.. and still came in overweight.. so that is not a valid statement.. sorry..
Maybe some people call him a coward because he wont step up to fight Pac and dissapears on vacation.. then when pac has a new fight lined up he steps back up and wants to fight Pac... Or maybe its because he hits women and threatens his children.. Allegedly... just a though...
If Paul knew how much we the hardcore boxing fans disliked catchweights...I'm certain he wouldn't have demanded it. Also, Margarito was a good win too.
You really are a moron sometimes.
:loser:

Deifinitely one of the biggest internet hypejobs Ive seen in a long time. People actually said he'd be unbeatable from 147-160...lol I mean seriously wtf? The guy was getting tagged clean and hard by the likes of Walter Mathysse and Sharmba Mitchell.
Im kinda worried that people are now underestimating him though. I think Martinez beat him but Williams still made it relatively close. His workrate is problematic for anyone.
I'll make it very simple so that you understand.
1. Paul Williams beat Sergio Martinez in their first fight.
.
he didn't beat sh*t,he received a gift decision
He can't possibly be worse than Pacquiao.
i think floyd is worse, fighting JMM at a catch weight and comes overweight during the weigh-in, didnt even bother to make the weight and just paid JMM some money

jk1700 absolutely right, williams is a fraud. i mean hbo forced the big dude to fight martinez this time round. he,s 39.1 by using high volume slaps and he punches from the elbow. cintron exposed him for 4 rounds until he fell from the ring and floyd would surely do another mosley on williams. i cant wait to see this guy knocked the freak out.
He is a bit of a hypocrite. I liked Paul Williams i think he's a brilliant fighter but recently i've been dissapointed. He has a chance at the 160 linear title against a guy he knows he can already beat, yet despite not being the champion he is demanding a catchweight. I don't like that and i find myself losing respect for him even more as the weeks pass.
Why can't boxers just get in the ring and fight like they used to just for the prestige and the recognition from the fans and critics. That's more powerful than a paper title or more money.
