    I'd love to see a Paul Williams Vs. Shane Mosley match up.

    All this about nobody wants to fight him at 147 is BS. All these fighters want too much money.

      Boxing goes by weight divisions not height or reach or any other dumb **** your pea sized brain tells you.


      Tall fighters also have a disadvantage with their long arms.

      They're terrible inside fighters for the most part and are highly susceptible to body shots.


      You should really just keep quiet on **** you know nothing about.
      I bet this got you all excited to type with your little colors and fonts.

      You'll find however, that your insults have no affect on me. Try harder, maybe.

      You can find several examples throughout history, but I think height and reach disparities, are almost as bad as weight disparities. Like I hear all this crying about Floyd going 146 to JMM's 142..and fightnight, he probably added about 10. so.. 156 to I believe JMM was 146. A 10 lb disparity that people cried to the heavens about. But... 6 inches taller and a foot more reach is just about as bad, people. Then factor in that Pdub adds 15-20 lbs from weigh in to fight night.

      P dub fights pretty ok on the inside. He can use his rangey arms to throw in angles that are unheard of from any normal fighter. Besides his range coupled with his work rate rarely allows that to happen anways.

        I dont agree with that, if P.Will had been fighting before day after weigh ins, he would have never fought at 147 or it would have been to his demise.

          A superior reach thrown from height can disrupt speed, frustrate movement, diffuse power, and deteriorate a chin

            Thats just it,

            you really shouldn't.

            You've shown an inability to do so with reason.




            But keep keeping on with your height and reach divisions.

            Its you looking silly,

            not me.

              Yeah he would.

              Media Question to Pac: Would you fight Williams?

              Pac: Well you have to talk to my promoter

              Behind the scenes with Roach:

              Roach: Manny...would you want to fight Williams?

              Pac: Ahhh...OK...let's fight.


              It's the same thing with Manny towards Floyd. In front of the camera Manny will say what is told to him to stick with which is to give the stage back to Arum to discuss future fights.

              Behind the scenes, Manny will fight whoever you ask him about.
              Freddie said before the Hatton fight that Manny came to him and said he wished he could fight Floyd instead because Floyd already KO'd Hatton.
              Manny's about fighting the best because he wants to fight the best no matter how much he says in front of the cameras he is just a ordinary fighter or whatever that was about. He's humble, no question, but he continues to challenge himself. Look where he is today: He is Champion and at an elite level. Now compare that to where he was before he left for L.A.
              It's that type of person who gets the top. Falls, gets up. Falls, gets up and is determined to get better. That's the big thing with Manny that I like.
              Floyd may beat him, but he is not better in my eyes overall if you know what I mean.

                So why is Williams not undefeated?

                Why is Hearns not undefeated?

                Why did Valuev just get beat?

                I can go on and on and on and on.

                I don't think I really have to, but knowing who I'm trying to reason with,

                I just might have to.

                  **** that....154 is live right now!!.....Paul should forget about WW and set up shop at 154.....if he scared of guys his size then just come out and say it!!!.....his height more than his skill makes it very hard for a WW to beat him!!

                      You were playing pitty pats with another man halfway dressed.

                      Did you have a point of some kind,

                      or do you think you're the only person here who boxes or trains?
