    Paul Williams in Today's 147 and 154 Division.

    Outside of Hearns, I think Paul Williams was the biggest freak of nature in Welterweight History. Great Jab, Fast hands, great inside fighter to be so tall, top 5 volume puncher, and a very underrated boxing IQ. The only knock against him is that he never used his length quite well. He could've been Thomas Hears 2.0 IMO. I personally think he loses to Spence, Ennis, Crawford, and Thurman. But I think he stops Lubin, Jermelle, Ortiz Jr, Castono, and Mungia. Thoughts?

      So he loses to all the black guys, and beats all the latinos lol.

      For the record, it was a Latino that gave him the knock out of his life. Took the soul out of this fool.

          - - U drinkin' aint thinkin', it's drunkin' whilst stinkin'.

          Most would avoid Paul and Marg like they did in their day, or do like Lady Lara to flee for their miserable flea-bitten lives in the ring.

          Spence is the most intelligent welt today would have a decent change to formulate a plan. Prob being there's never been a 6-4 welter as good as Williams, so sparring for that style becomes a useless endeavor save getting into boxing shape...you're welcome

                Paul Williams faked an injury so he can duck a 24yr old Canelo!

                He’s overrated asf got schooled by Erislandy Lara.
