    That's what Paul Williams gets for fighting like an amateur.

    My boy Sergio Martinez won, just like I said he would but I didn't expect him to KO him in the 2nd round. I was in total awe. Looking at the replays i'm wondering why Paul threw a punch with one hand, and left the other hand below his waist instead of protecting his jaw. That's why he got caught flush and that's why he got caught flush in the first fight and in the Cintron fight.

    Williams' defense is really really ****ty for a 'professional' boxer I must say. You're not supposed to block with your jaw.

    Martinez is just a class above Paul. I think it had to happen for the sake of Paul (not that I wanted it to) but his defense severely lacks in key areas. Martinez literally knew what he was going to land tonight, and it did (Martinez wasn't kidding us)..

      it's worked for him on several occasions,

      he was taking it to Martinez too... the fight was still 50 // 50 until that knock out

        Well one of the trickiest things in boxing is going from outside to the inside, it is a natural opening but Williams having long arms hurts him because it takes his punches longer to come around so he can punch again.

        He always get caught in that situation but this is the first time he got hit perfectly.

          Williams does that regularly. So does Manny Pacquaio. If you don't believe that, go back and look at the Margarito fight. That is why I have said that Pac woudl not stand a chance against Mayweather. He leaves himself exposed too much. He has gotten away with it because he has been fighting bums who are past their prime.

            Yeah I watched the Pac-Marg fight today and whenever Manny would throw a left cross, his right hand would be at his waist instead of protecting his chin. Mayweather wouldn't allow that to happen.

            I never understood why fighters fight like that. It's so risky. Just do it the right way and you won't end up on the canvas like Williams, or Roy Jones vs. Glen Johnson, or even Naseem Hamed vs. Kevin Kelley.

              I thought Sergio would win by decision but once he started connecting on Paul's chin in the 2nd half of the first round, I knew Paul was getting KOd. Those punches were thudding off his chin, and it was only a matter of time, especially considering his chin has shown signs of deterioration in the last couple of fights.

              If he and Sergio fight again, he will get KTFO again.

                  Yeah his defense is his downfall.. He leaves his chin right out there and unprotected. He got hit multiple times with that shot in the first fight too. This one was just right on the button and perfect.

                    Yeah it was the picture perfect shot, I hope Paul Willaims is able to recover from that. That punch is something that can ruin a boxer.
