    Paul Williams

    Am I the only one not impressed with him? He doesn't seem to be that special to me. He's just BIG, thats what I can see. He doesn't slip punches, use his jab enough, or maintain an appropriate distance for a man his size. When you have a big guy like him who doesn't have a real amateur background, what you get is Michael Grant. I'm not saying that he's another Michael Grant, because to be real Grant was a special case of a man just so destroyed mentally and internally that he walks among the dead now as a fighter. But Williams doesn't seem to have the extra umph to justify the hoopla, IMO.

    His size is absolutely special for his weight class, I know people would like to look past that but how can you?

    His chin also appears to be superb, he ate some serious leather form Slugger Walter Mattyhsse and he never really blinked.

    Jury is still out for sure but Im a bit more impressed then you are Asian.

      Im not OVERLY impressed with him but i rate him. Cotto Breaks his ribs, Floyd dances to an easy UD but he still beats sum top guys for me, good chin, throws a ton of punches and yeah Mainly the height!

        He's just so fun to watch.

        Unparalelled height at that weight, great reach, and throws punches in bunches. He really has the ability to unload on some people...

          If he's getting with bull**** punches from Walter Matthysse, what happens when he fights guys like Cotto and Margarito?

            Sure Walter's shots look Amatuerish but I think he is much heavier handed then you are giving him credit for.

            Were going to find out what happens, I would be very surpised if either man stopped Paul.

              I'm sorry but Mayweather doesn't dance to an easy UD with somebody who's 6'2 with a reach like Williams.

                  I honestly don't know. She added me on *******, I think she might be a drone account. Even with that, I still added her becuz I was unable to resist her force. I think her name is Tara, which would make sense to me.

                    Nah probably not cum to think of it, but he definatley beats his ass! Remember Chico? I know he was weight drained but still it was a performance and a half!
