    Paul Williams @ 147?

    All these posts about Paul Williams and PBF/PAC.

    Youg uys actually think he can make 147 at this point? I could see him with Floyd at a higher weight if Floyd ever grows a pair but I don't really think he would be able to make 147. If he does and stayshealthy, shieeet I dunno. That guy was eating some punches last night and walking right through them. Like a hybrid between a slick black fighter and an amigo getting his Messican on. Would be a very hard fight for Manny Pacs. Probably never happen though.


    What says you, NSB?

    he is still young so he could do it but all these shifts in weight are going to end up hurting him.

      No doubt. But the guy he would be coming down for at 147 isn't no scrub himself. Might as well stay at 154-160 and try to lure Mayweather if he gets past Pacquaio cause you know he needs the money.

          at 147 pac-williams is a realistic fight that either man could win williams has a problem with southpaws and contrary to popular belief is not invincible as shown in the 1st quintana fight where his eye was cut open and he lost a dec by a much lesser fighter then pac in quintana and then again last night against a fast southpaw who probably should have won i would love to see how pac would react to the pressure of a tall fighter who doesnt back down like williams and how pacs power and speed would affect williams and his very poor defense . i also think mayweather vs williams would be a great toss up fight that would either have mayweather outclassing williams and landing clean punches and moving in and out or williams constant pressure and workrate gettin the better of mayweathers defensive style and getting williams the dec. i dont think williams is a good as he is made out to be by his supporters but he still is atough out for anyone from 147-160 and anyone who gets in the ring with him will have to be prepared for a 12 round war

            Honestly just from his pure size and range Mayweather and Pacquiao would have major problems plus by pure size he has to much of an advantage,i think Williams should clean out 154 and move to 160 his legacy will not be at ww.

              i agree they would have problems with williams size but i also think williams would have problems with their skill quintana isnt exactly a huge ww and he is less skilled then both pac and mayweather and he got the job done against williams in their first fight at ww. im not saying that these two fights are an easy fight either way but they arent as ridiculous as some posters would have you believe
