Damn you're a fkn whiney *****.

Tell me something I dont know

Im a Paul Williams hater. This guy is listed as being 6'1. After looking at many of his stare downs with opponents, let me tell you there is no ****ing way in hell he is 6'1. Hes more like 6'3. My friend is 6'1 and im 5'10. When me and my friend stand next to each other, we have far less height difference than when PW stands next to Marg. And Marg is taller than me. His frame looks horrible in the ring when he fights, he looks like a starved bum that would starve and only eat oatmeal to save enough money so he could look like all his color matching rapper idols. Then he talks about people at welterweight fearing him when he fears moving up where he belongs. At 6'3 he would still be taller than most middle, super middle, light heavy, cruiser, and even heavyweights, imagine that. Oh wait whats that? He was talking about fighting Pavlik? Get back to me when he actually does. Paul Williams is the definition of ****.

people look different heighthwise in person than they do in a photo or video.

What a ****** remark, first of all even at a higher weight he's still going to look skinny as evident by his long limbs. Paul is just a freak of nature, if you were a real boxing fan and seen some of his early fights at 160 u would see that he looked exactly the same. Tall and lanky. Look at Kelly Pavlik, his frame is similar to Williams and as a light heavy he may not have all the advantages he has now. He wants to be like his Rap Idols, you idiot he just wants to fight!!

The 5'11" Celestino Caballero fights at superbantam...go figure.

It's not all surprising to be honest, my brother is 6ft 3 and he naturally weighs about the same as me ( I'm 5ft9) which is about 154lbs.

It all depends on his bone density and metabolism. Though in all honesty the guy looks like he should move up some weight classes.

The "bone density" argument is a myth. variations in "bone size' or "bone density" or being 'big boned" are negligible with respect to weight differences.

This may sound ****** but why wasn't a height to weight standard or limits established in boxing? Anyone?
