    Team Paul Williams: "We'll Fight Hopkins at 165-Pounds"

    If Bernard Hopkins is serious about a fight with Paul Williams, he will have to move down to 165-pounds to do it. George Peterson, trainer and manager of Williams, says the fight can happen at 165 but has no shot of taking place at Hopkins' requested weight of 170-pounds. Peterson says Williams' walking weight, right now, is around 150-pounds. [details]

      I'm a big fan of Paul Williams, but the most feared man tag he has is exaggerated I'll have to admit. That award would have to go to Glen Johnson. HBO had to pull Dawson's fingernails out with pliers for him to take that rematch. James Kirkland, Chad Dawson, Bernard Hopkins, Allan Green, Sergei Dzinziruk, and Clottey have all expressed interest in fighting Paul Williams. Even though Clottey's call outs hold no weight because of Arum not putting up any money for the fight, I still have to give Clottey credit for mentioning Paul's name.

          Pwill don't need to go no higher than MW. And Bhop needs to go after the Chad-Glen winner, or somebody else wit a belt to close his career.

                I'm having a hard time believing that paul really walks around at 150.

                Dude's like 6'1 or 6'2.

                How is that even possible???

                I'm 6'1 and I walk around between 185-200.

                I can't imagine being 150.

                  I doubt Bernard is willing to drop down to 165...I think B-Hop will wait on the winner of Dawson-Johnson

                    I don't like this counter offer by Paul Williams. Just say you don't want the fight period if you're not willing to fight Hopkins at 170. Bernard is going on 45 years old. Beat him at his best so you'll get credit for it. Hell, I'm getting ready to do something I don't want to do now. And that's give Pavlik a little bit of credit for fighting B-Hop at 170. I hate it when one fighter tries to tip the playing field so much in their advantage. This is the reason that Pacquiao gets bashed. And Williams is going to follow suit? I thought he was better than that.
