        LOL....

        everyone has an advantage... if your the shorter guy, stay low and out of reach... get on the inside and work the body...

        if your the taller guy.. stay tall, use your height.. and keep the guy at a distance with your jab...

        height is no excuse for winning or losing a fight, its who puts there gameplan more effectively on their opponent

          So was Thomas " Hitman" Hearns a freak show?
          Was Chico a freak show?

              at the end of the day, you both weigh 147 pounds... your frame is just different...

              and if in fact wiliams has to starve to get down to that weight... it should make him a weaker opponent shouldnt it?
              Bingo. Instead, he is doing the exact opposite. Paul just goes out and throws punches non stop lol.

                Hearns was skinny as hell at welterweight, so was Corrales, Corrales was a bit of a freakshow to though at featherweight , I'll admit.

                    Williams should move up to middleweight and pick on someone his own size

                    Williams 6'3 vs Pavlik 6'2 - Pavlik would knock Williams out cold

                    He will get embarrased when/if he moves up

                      I don't understand why people make these kind of statements, PWill & Marg are big WW's, but they work their asses off to be at this weight. If Cotto was to work his ass off like both of these guys, he would have big advantages at JWW. Both PWill & Marg are known for their superb conditioning, it's not a coincedence that they have advantages over most other opponents. I give props to both for their true dedication, to coming in at their absolute best.
