    I thought Paul Williams was one of the most underrated people in the welterweight division, but after watching what Cintron did to Matthysse, that **** was impressive.

    The crazy thing is, people are now trying to make Matthysse out to be some sort of ****ing assured victory for Cintron now that it is over. That dude fought well against Williams, he is definately not a bum. Probably something close to DeMarcus Corley, a good fighter who just can't quite beat the best, and Cintron did something pretty damn good by destroying him.

        There is something wrong with those number, Paul Williams has by far the longest arms and reach at 147. Those numbers are not the end all and be all of measurement. They are not done by some super precise scientist. There are wild variations between fights, and some obvious attempts to make fighters seem closer in physicality than they really are.

        I have see Mayweather listed from as tall as 5'10 to as short as 5'7. I have also seen Paul Williams reach listed as 84 inches.

        Paul Williams also has obscenely long forearms in comparison to the rest of his arm.

                    HBO measures a different way. I think from the elbow down.

                    Williams has a lot of length from his shoulder to his elbow. That's the reason for the measurements. He has a lot longer of a reach than anybody.

                      Wingspan, not arms. 82" is 3 less than the alltime record, 85" by Primo Carnera. It's not unthinkable that Paul has ridiculous wide shoulders.

                      No, they do armpit to the end of the first, I can hear Lampley saying it in my head.

                      Also, think about how ****ing long these dudes arms would be if from the elbow down, Floyd's elbow down would be 2 feet and 2 inches. Don't think so.
