Couple of things:
Kolle is a middleweight who wasn't stopped until like round 6 against Andre Ward. Ward fights at Super Middle now. Also Ward had made him quit. Not viciously KO him like Williams did.
Andy Kolle might be a lesser fighter than Alfonso Gomez in a p4p sense, but Williams looked good in doing so. He had good head movement and seemed to have the same speed he had at welterweight. He had popped and landed some very nice counters.
Cotto toyed with Gomez in a fight that everyone thought that Cotto was going dispatch him sooner or in more impressive fashion. Williams was supposed to win, but just most likely in a points victory and get him some rounds to stay active.
Three things here:
1. If he couldn't hang at Middleweight then why was he undefeated? Williams could make 147 and that's why he moved down. Like I said in my other thread, if it's controlled like the second quintana fight (in which he only rehydrated to 156) then he can make it fine.
2. He'd be kissing the canvas? Isn't that funny when you have Mosley in your avatar? According to your awesome logic, Mosley ran from JLC and then went to DLH. This means he should have gotten crushed. Granted I don't think he can beat Pavlik, but if Mosley could have a chance then why couldn't Williams.
3. He'd be kissing the canvas based on what? His incredibly weak chin he showed against Margarito? Question:
If Williams is killing himself to make 147 and should be fighting at 160 then shouldn't he be rocked by a lot of welterweight shots and be chinny like Cotto was at 140? Also how come Williams is so drained he can throw like 100 punches a round?
If Cotto can become stronger at a bigger weight class then why can't Williams? Same with Mosley for that matter. **** half your fighters in your sig can be better at different weight classes.
Cotto at 147, Corrales at 135 was still strong, Mosley at 147 and, Guzman at 130.
He "ran" from that weight so bad he tried to make a fight with Winky Wright (in which was cancelled because HBO had no more money for that type of fight) and also Kelly Pavlik remember?
It shows he might be able to compete with middleweights and remember all those fights he could fight at welterweight? Incufan is dead on the money with this, if you can make weight YOU MAKE IT.
My only concern is Williams' health in draining, but last time he only rehydrated to 156 so he obviously prepared himself a lot better.

Also you make Andy Kolle's resume sound like ****, and it is, but you under play it. Kolle was coming off wins of Johnathan Reid and Matt Vanda. He was increasing his comp generally.
williams.. He Couldn't Hang With People His Own Size So He Had To Move Wayy Down.
I'd Like To See Him In Against Someone His Own Size (pavlik)
He'd Be Kissing Canvas And Showing Everyone Why It Is He Ran From That Weight.

paul williams started at middleweight, so that means nothing?

LOL @ you people.
