Comments Thread For: Paul Williams Welterweight Return May Happen on May 8

[check hook]

Right for the Dec fight... But, I was taking about when both were fighting at WW... And, also after Williams fought Kolle... Clottey wanted to make that fight at 147...

PW and Clottey fight will hapeen at 147 in the next year or so.......

"Paul Williams is a weak welterweight" - Josh Clottey


If PW is not weight drained and weak he should beat clottey comfortably.

If Goosen and Pwill crying bout how no one wants to fight him then why the **** go down to WW.Might as well stay at jr middle or middle weight were a rematch with Martinez will be another great fight or with Kirkland when he gets out.Also with Pavlik or Foreman he has a chance to actually step in the ring with some one !

Clottey turned down 600K to face Paul, something of that sort.

Not that again! See here.

[Calilloyd]

No, at 154, dummy!

I guess you never read that Williams was Dzinziruk's mandatory.

You racist bastard.

How ironic. A guy who contributes to white supremacist web sites calling somebody a "racist"

[Calilloyd]

Not that again! See here.

What does that tell us? That Clottey turned down his biggest payday to date? He turned the fight down. What you said in that link doesnt' change that. And the fight was going to be at 154. All you hear about is Clottey being this huge welterweight and 154 was too much for him? Please.

[Dorian]

I don't know if this is such a smart move for Williams, he shouldn't go below 154 in my opinion but I mean, he knows best right?

Let's hope so..

I dont care who Paul fights, any Punisher fight is good news for me and i dont think there is many fighters who can beat him.

Cintron is Latino so he can whoop that long legged ass. Paul can't handle Latino fighters with skills.

what happened to cintron last time he was at welter?
tell me, come on tell me
Margarito was latino right?
what happened to him?
Paul called out Cotto and Mosley
but they were too scare to face him
but they faced each other once Paul Move up.
yeah, I'm latino
but race doesn't make you stronger you idiot

[OnlyHuman]

I'm gonna start this off by saying Williams is a good fighter, an exciting one and I'm a fan

but this whole thing he and his team have of marketing him as the most feared WW is BS. You have to remember that this guy is anywherre between 6"1 and 6"3, challenging natural welters is easy to do at that size.

Mosley is 5"9, Floyd 5"8 and Pac 5"6 <------ There is nothing brave about challenging guys that you have such a big physical advantage over, if you add in the fact that he throws thousands of punches relentlessly you realsie that he would be favorite against all teh best welters

When I look at him i see a JMW or MW who can make welter, not a natural welter. I would like to see him at 154 or 160. Thats where the most interesting fights are for him. That Pavlik fight would have been interesting plus there's a little bit of unifished business with Martinez, he can fight the winner

In summary,he is a 6"3 welter, there's nothing brave about him challenging these 5"8 guys. I know its a weigh class not a height class bla bla bla but there is still nothing brave about that. Its no reason to applaud him. With that said challenging the cash cows make financial sense so fair enough. You wont ever hear me accuse any of the top welters of ducking him, fighting him makes no sense, or dollars.

another idiot -_-"
size means ****
Oscar vs Pacman
what happened?
size means ****
Paul got over confident against Martinez and you see what happened
he almost lost the fight, if it wants because he pressed the fight he would had lost
he got punched cleanly, I hope he knows what he has to do now to get his skills up
the truth is, that ppl will find any excuse to cover up their fear.

When you show up for a Middleweight fight weighing 156 without draining any weight, I think it's safe to say Paul Williams can easily make 147. People don't realize the guy is just built to fight at lower weights. His height is irrelevant. His body type right now is 147 or 154. Maybe in 5 years he can fight at 168, but not now.
