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 ****.
    LOL

    But I do kinda agree with you still. It seems ****** that he is a good 4 or 5 inches taller than most other guys in his division, but I guess if he can make the weight then it's not a problem. It does give him a huge reach advantage but his punches would be a lot more powerful if he was fighting at supermiddle, I mean, most heavyweights are around that height. Tyson was 5"10, 215 lbs. It's odd.

      Ok Sir Gee-k. I'll change my Avatar after muppet face gets revenge over the 2 other guys who knocked his block off. I like Wlad though. It's just that fans like you that have no intelligence who feel compelled to utter ******ity and nonsense. I'll give you an example.

C'mon guys, tell me that Corrales and Williams dont look out of place when they are in the ring, they looked like scrawny freaks that knew their only way of winning was to used their figure advantage and even then, they would both end up getting beat. Yes Margo has the frame to fight at jr/middleweight but does he look weird at welterweight? No, he looks tremendous and has a great body<<< to anyone thats going to bash that, let me ruin the fun for you, ewww im a ***, im a ****, i like guys.
        Again your point is moot my friend...I've asked this question all day to those who feel like Williams is to tall for 147...

        -WHEN HAS BOXING EVER DIVIDED THE DIVISION BY HEIGHT?

        I understand were you're trying to say it doesnt look right... but hey..having height over you opponent doesnt always assure you a victory!

          Never, its never been divided by weight. But my point is that it just does not look right. What if a guy that was 6'8 wanted to fight at welterweight and he made 147. Do you have any idea how he would look? And I was also trying to attack his and his fans arguments about how people fear him, well he himself is staying at welter for a reason. Paul doesent bring any casual fans to boxing because looks matter. What if a fat turd in the upper weights had a weigh in and they promoted the pictures from it? Would it get people interested? Plain and simple he looks like trash, like he doesent have enough money to feed himself when Marg looks great at the weigh ins. PW wouldnt attract the casual fans for a mega fight if they didnt know him and saw a picture of how he looks, they would just think he is a crackhead.

              I'm glad you posted that pic...It further validates the point I'm stressing! You're saying it doesnt look right but were is this huge height advatage that you claim? Dont get me wrong Williams does stand a little taller than Quintana but that doenst mean anything...Did Williams height help him win the first or second fight?? You sound bitter towards Williams and you got the right to have you opinion (which I respect) but I disagree wholeheartly!

                To the guys who are bitching about Williams being tall:

                Here is a (partial) list of the last few P4P guys:

                Floyd Mayweather, Jr
                Manny Pacquiao
                Roy Jones, Jr
                Shane Mosley
                Felix Trinidad
                Pernell Whitaker
                Julio Cesar Chavez
                Mike Tyson
                Oscar Delahoya


                Which of these fighters was considered particularly tall for their weight class?

                    Oh, so now it's how a fighter LOOKS that sells fights, and determines the winner? Gotcha. Jeff Lacy should be the freaking all time pound for pound champ then.
                    Oh, and Quintana must feel like hot trash by getting TKO'ed in the first round by that "crack head" then...

                      The recurring theme, however, is speed.
