    Paul Williams = ???weight

    Can someone illuminate me on what weight class (es) we should expect to see Williams in in the near future?

    Pretty soon he won't have made 47 in two years, so we can probably drop the talks of fights against Mayweather, Pacquiao, Mosley... (Although maybe Roach would be more than happy to get Pac a fight with another dehydrated fighter)

    What's next? 54? 60? 68?

    Against who?

    The Cintron fight is scheduled at 54, right? (I am not sure) But what's next?

    Personally I would like to see him against Martinez or Pavlik at 160. I am sure that's how most people feel too. But what would be his best weight right now?

    he says he can still make ww but no-one will fight the guy. if i was him i would look to unify the 154 division. that will put him in a much better position to get the superfights that he craves at ww. right now he is just too awkward a fighter for the top ww guys to risk fighting. it's bull**** but it's true...

      pwill should go back down to 154. cotto is moving up and margo is fighting there. martinez will likely return to 154 as well.

        “I’ll fight at whatever weight. It don’t matter, As soon as I go to any weight class they all get scared anyway, That’s not arrogance speaking, that’s the new more vocal string bean assassin who’s fought from 147 to 160. He’s even willing to fight at 175." - Paul Williams

        The guy just wants to fight, lol. I think he will become a natural middleweight soon enough though. There's no names at 154 and nobody will fight him at 147 so I think 60 is the best division for him. Hopefully Martinez decides to stay at Middleweight (maybe after he fights Margarito again) and then him and P-Will can have another fight for the titles.

        I think he could dominate 160

            I don't think he'd be healthy at welter anymore. 154lbs is probably his optimum weight right now, but the better fights (the two you mentioned - Martinez II and Pavlik) are at 160lbs.

              154/160 is best for Williams.

                Hes at 154 Pounds. I dont think he'll be at 160 anymore until like next year.

                Pavlik-Martinez are tied up for a rematch.
