Dan Goosen wants Bernard Hopkins for Paul Williams next.

[King Jaffe Joffer]

hopkins is also two devisions bigger than paul...he would rough williams up and counter him all day and likely knock him out..he looked close to being knocked out by martinez who is a natural 154 pounder..whats a world class 175 pounder going to do to him?

Whens the last time old ass Hopkins KO anyone? Oscar 6 years ago? Please
Martinez probably hits harder than Hops at this point. He couldnt even stop a tomato can his last fight where he looked slow and sluggest. Williams will out work him

This thread is about what Dan Goosen (Paul Williams promoter) wants, not hopkins, genius.

I see you beat me to it.

This is a fight that i thinks Hopkins might like, and look for. Williams would pressure Hopkins,and try to keep the fight at a high pace. However Hopkins loves fighters that comes to him, so he can counter his opponents punches. And based on the last couple of fights Williams doesnt look to hard to hit either. And lets not forget that Williams last fight last week, was a really war. You cant keep fighting for to long fights like that.

Hopkins would try to work the first couple of rounds against Williams body, to slow him down a bit and then start to connect more and more as the fight progress, both against the body and the head. And use his size and strenght to wear Williams down a bit. I dont think Williams perhaps understand that Hopkins can, when he sits down on his punches throw some hard shots.

Hopkins may not have scores so many knockouts lately, but he has been fighting more on defense then offense. But i think against Williams that Hopkins would try to fight more on the offense then in the last couple of years. Simply because i dont think he fearS Williams punching power and because Williams is not to hard to hit.

If the fight should happen next year, i take Hopkins on late round KO, or perhaps on points, in a fight where Williams would get really dominanted down the stretch.

This fight is not a bravery move on Paul's part in my view. It's a ****** move. Just like JMM fighting Floyd and fucking up his legacy because he didn't have the motivation to keep taking on all comers in his own division and because he got money hungry.

I definetly fancy Paul Williams in this fight.

Williams speed, work rate and punch output would get a decision IMO. Hopkins couldn't knock out a natural MIDDLEWEIGHT BUM last week so he aint knocking out Williams. Hopkins achilees heel is fast guys. (i.e Taylor,Calzaghe)
