    Why do people think Paul Williams is too big for welterweight when....

    Paul Williams 155-158
    Shane Mosley 160-165
    Miguel Cotto 165-170
    Joshua Clottey 175+
    Floyd Mayweather Jr. 155-160
    Ricky Hatton 170-180
    Andre Berto 160-165
    Antonio Margarito 170

    Those are the top guys at 147. All of them walk around weighing more than Paul, yet Paul is too big for 147 and not a true Welterweight. Every time a potential fight for Paul at 147 gets brought up people say Paul has no business there and is picking on smaller guys...some one explain the logic behind that?

      That is just an excuse people make, the real reason is low money and high risk in fighting Paul Williams. And how come Hatton is on the list? He looks less than impressive at 147, I would rate Pacquiao higher even though he fought only once at 147.

        If Pwill can still make 147 comfortably, gr8. I think he beats everybody there. But at this point I doubt he could do 147 and be strong. Dude needs to take over at 154 imo.

          If P Dub can make 147 he's a welterweight, no such thing as too big.

                  i agree he should be fighting up there since noone wants to fight him at welter. i mean the guy can't fill 10000 seats who blames them
