    Why do people question Williams’s ability to make 147???

So I have to put on weight. Like this fight right here, I have to put on weight to get up to the weight. So making '47 is no problem."
    This man is a beast. I swear he could make 140 if he really wanted to

    J.S: What's your walking around weight?

    P.W: Oh, I walk around at about 155, 156, something like that.

    J.S: So welterweight is your natural weight class and next year you figure you'll be welterweight champion if you're given the shot?

    P.W: Oh, sir, I'm staying at welterweight until my manager, Mr. Peterson tells me to move up, after targeting some of them belts and stuff. After that we may move up, it just depends on how I feel.

                I'll believe him back at WW when I actually see it. He's been fightin above 147 for a few fights now. I don't see him makin it comfortably.

                  Are you fucking ******. Williams walks around 155. That is just 8 pounds above WW. How could he NOT make it. What was his fight night weight against Winky. 165 I think. He was 164 fight night at WW. Of course he can make weight.

                    Like somebody else mentioned above most posters here have a favorite fighter in the Welterweight Division who wants no piece of Williams.

                    Therefore they want Williams to move up so they don't have to constantly defend their favorite fighters for dodging him.

                    The better question is why would anyone want Williams to fight in any division besides Welterweight... there are dream fights with big name opponents just waiting to happen... the 154 is pathetic and AA and Pavlik are the only names worth Williams time at 160.
