    My issue with Paul Williams is, he's made a living of poaching on tremendously smaller fighters. There's no reason a 6'3 fighter should be challenging fighters who are 5'7, it's a complete and utter mismatch. Thus, he shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath as fighters like Chad Dawson, who's actually fighting fighters his size.

    In my opinion, Williams shouldn't be fighting under 160. With his size, if he's as good as some people believe, he should be able to compete at 168. Though in my opinion, he'd be easily knocked out by the elite fighters.
    I understand your POV, and it's one that has become increasingly common.

    I still believe that if you can make the weight, you can fight at the weight. It's taking advantage of the system a bit, but it is a bit of a risk that the fighter is taking, as cutting a lot of weight could back fire.

      Burner, stop with this "you only watch Floyd nonsense". You're an infamous fanboy/idiot, quit with the charades.

      Neither of which are 6'3. Try and answer the questions presented son.

      I'll show you.

      There are no height limits in boxing, but there is something stunningly pathetic about a 6'3 fighter preying on tremendously smaller fighters.
      How tall is was the guy Williams lost too?

      Do you even watch Williams? He RARELY uses his height?

      Again what are the height limits on boxing. You still havent told me.

        5'10, but I'm confused about what exactly William's mediocre boxing skills has to do with him taking advantage of smaller fighters?

        It's becoming increasingly difficult, but yes, I watch Williams.

        I answered your question a page back genius.
