    This.

    At 160 he'll be able to compete but i can't see him being top guy even at MW. SMW he'd have his career ended after about 2 fights.

      I can't imagine Paul Williams holding up against those guys unless he moves up in weight naturally.

        I know that of course, But there's always rumors. I've been hearing Radiohead might headline since they might release the continuation of In Rainbows CD. The Strokes might headline etc. etc.



        It'll be my first time, Do you really recommend camping or getting a hotel?

          will never happen anyway, 160 is likely the highest he will go just because he is tall does not mean he can carry that kinda of extra weight

              He IS tall, true, but he has a very small frame. Much like Caballero in the smaller weights. Maybe as he gets older, talking in his 30s, he might be able to even go to 175 and up. But his body is what has killed his career

                Oh well yeah, those two. Personally my vote goes for radiohead and the strokes (even though I already saw them but festival atmosphere is way better) and I'm hearing Daft Punk is a heavy contender.

                Definitely camping. You get there a day early but you won't have to deal with traffic on the way into the festival ground and out at night especially when you're WORN OUT. you just go back and sleep for the next day. The only thing that kind of bugged me was getting a shower. But it's not too bad

                  I swear man, people need to get their eyes checked. He's NOT that big, MY GOD. He's tall and lanky, doesn't have much muscle. He has the frame to fill into the much higher divisions but that stuff takes alot of time.

                    He probably only walks around at around 170 give or take based on his recent FN weights, he would be at a huge strength and size disadvantage and is only a slightly harder than average puncher at SWW as is.

                    Combine that with his aggressive style and he is a highlight reel ko loss against any decent SMW with a half decent punch.
