    Paul Williams has went from overrated to underrated.

    Pavlik and Pacquiao have went from overrated to more overrated. Where are all these threads coming from saying that Williams can't beat these guys? Now when people said that Williams could be competitive with the super six and beat guys like Bute and Ward that is overrating him. I also don't think that Williams can beat Hopkins anymore, and Hopkins will get bashed from me if he takes that fight. But I think that Paul would still beat the **** out of Pavlik and he gives anybody hell from 147-160 still like he did last night.

    Williams has a ton of trouble with southpaws. That's an absolute fact now.

      Is Pavlik a southpaw though? Somebody fill me in if that's changed and he's adopted a new style.

        The people who all of a sudden think Paul easily loses to all these fighters are definitely underrating him.

          Paul better stay the hell away from 168 if he knows what`s good for him.He`d get murdered twice over if he even step one foot in that division.

          I think ist a fight Hops would take cause he loves fighting fighters that move up in weight.

          For anybody that thought Williams could beat Hopkins need their head checked.Williams has always had poor defense and only look good against fighters that come towards him,even then he still struggled.And most of his fights have been against fighters who are substantially smaller then him.Against Hops there would`nt be that much of a gap in Height.

            It seems to me he still overrated. I told you all he can't beat fighter that moves around and give him angles but NO! He is big bad Paul Williams! He throws 100 punches a round and he is the most ducked fighter in history! Bunch of garbage. Paul Williams is an extremely flawed boxer that would get beat by most of the top fighters in this divisions he fight in. His size and workrate would make him a hard fight for some rounds but his skills are not elite, his defence is garbage and his punching power is not enough. One thing that saves him from not getting KTFO is that he is so much taller than his opponents and we saw how both Quintana and Martinez tired late in the fight because you have to use so much energy to hit him.

              Pavlik didn't go to more overrated. There were posters here claiming that Mosley would beat him. Some people were saying that PWill will KO him. That's not overrated.

              As for Williams, after people were going on about how he could even enter the super-middle tourney, he is finally put back in the place he belonged. Just a good fighter.

                  How was Pavlik overrated when most people picked Williams to beat him? Last night showed how porous Williams defense is and how less than granite his chin is. I didn't think Kelly had much of a chance against Paul until now, but KP still loses to at least a half dozen guys at 68.

                    People keep saying that Pavlik would KO a world class fighter when he has only fought against a bum one time since last October against Hopkins. That is why Pavlik is more overrated than he used to be after last night's fight.
