Who Has Paul Williams Beat Considered So Highly?

[TheManchine]

Firstly Paul seems like a nice guy and willing to take challenges but i think some people are grossly overrating him


Who has he beat for people to think he can beat anyone from 147-160?

some people even think he could be successful at 168


lets take a look

Santos Pakau

blown up lightweight lost last 5 fights, 4 by stoppage


Sharmba Mitchell

140 pounder, used to be good fighter, old, shot when Williams fought him


Margarito

great win, pulls it out in close fight, both fighters have probably improved since

Quintana

gets schooled by the underdog in the first fight, wins the second by ko in 1



not hating on the guy but i dont see how people can say he can beat everyone from 147-168


based on what?

again i like Paul but i think people are completely overrating him

[TheManchine]

i ****ed up the title

it should be

"Who Has Paul Williams Beat to be Considered So Highly?"

[Crazylegs77]

He is still unproven, his best opponents by far were Margarito and Quintana.
Before he faced them his average opponent has 13 wins 9 losses. Not impressive.

He's big and black.

What isnt there to like?

i think thats why alot of people have jumped on the bandwagon,

alot of Floyd fans are now big Williams fans

[Derranged]

You are incorrect. Paul Williams didnt beat Margarito, Margarito just ran out of rounds.

[krispy kreme]

The fact that he has a win over Margarito is why people hold him so high. He still needs to fight more quality guys.

Exactly.

I don't like him myself.

Paul Williams is nowhere near as popular as Floyd and will never be. He is getting fans because of his wins, not his race. And is considered highly because of his talent and potential, not the hard to figure out.

I like Williams but the fact that he had no answers for 12 rounds against a 'B' level fighter leaves me wondering about him. Unfortunately he's only fought a couple rounds since so it's hard to judge if he's actually made improvement.
