Goossen: Paul Williams Wants Mayweather/Mosley at 147

[Syf]

Yeah, and Hearns really didn't belong at 147 either. Get a grip. If you can make the weight, you can "belong" in any weight class.

He really didn't..

Thats why he went up as far as Light Heavyweight...

[Doctor_Tenma]

It really is a shame he's not more of a draw. What if he beat both Mosley and Pavlik next year? That would surely get himself some much needed exposure.

Agree man, too bad Pavlik bitched out. Went on to face another opponent during the same time Pavlik vs. Paul could have happened.

BoxingScene.com spoke to Dan Goossen about the upcoming Paul Williams versus Sergio Martinez fight, scheduled for December 5 at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. See what Goossen had to say about this matchup, the possibility of fighting Pavlik down the road and who they really want Pavlik to fight after this fight in this BoxingScene.com exclusive interview.

Paul needs to have a fight at 147 and prove he can still make the weight comfortably and perform. This guy likes to claim he can still be very effective at the weight but we haven't seen him there in a long while.

Floyd see PWill in his nightmares. NO WAY would floyd fight paul williams

[bojangles1987]

Paul Williams needs to accept that his chances are slim to none of getting big fights at 147. The guy is campaigning at middleweight, he's not going to get welterweights in the ring.

[-Boxzilla-]

i have a hard time believing he can still get down to 147 without it affecting him ... let him make the trilogy with quintana or fight another ww so he can prove he can still get down to 47 ...

then i'd love to see him fight mosley berto winner or pbf after he fight pac ...

[Doctor_Tenma]

He really didn't..

Thats why he went up as far as Light Heavyweight...

You can't say Paul doesn't belong at WW because of his reach and height. Also, people should stop complaining about a fighter who doesn't use his reach/ height. He goes in and attacks.

[Syf]

Bull****. If you can make the weight, you can fight there. Being taller just means you've less muscle elsewhere.

It's called weight divisions.

Have you guys ever boxed before?


Taller fighters with miles of reach have a distinct, almost unfair advantage..

Plus, P dub puts on like 20lbs from weigh in to fight night,

I'll say it again..he doesn't belong at WW... he should Clean out his current division.or even go up in weight, like hearns did.

[Joe2608]

Nobody will fight Paul at 147 because they know they're getting beat. If you can make the weight then you can go wherever you please there are no height or reach restrictions in boxing.

mosley already said he wouldnt fight him and if pbf beats manny then p will will be the fight for him if he wants a great legacy,i know he probly wont fight but if they ever do i think pbf beats him in a close fight
