He deserves every single bit of praise he's receiving.

    PS: Cool guys don't look at explosions.


    Cool guys don't look at their knocked out opponents hit the floor.

    if you don't like martinez, you must kick puppies off bridges.

      If anyone has something bad to say about him, I'd love to hear it. I hope he rules MW until he retires (unless he fights Floyd).

        don't think so.
        one of the goodfellows of boxing.

        but i tell you. he wasn't even looking
        where he was throwing that ko punch.
        paul walked right into it.
        He knew what he was doing... its how he throws most his punches.
        it was actually intended as a counter over pauls jab, as paul feinted sergio
        steps aside, pivoted slightly and went to counter. Watch the vid.

        Just so happens, the feint ended up making paul open.

          Nah, Sergio walked him into it and knew where Paul's head was going to be. He hit him with a similar punch in the first round of the first fight and other times in the first fight too. He did catch him a couple times in the rematch too, but not as clean and not while Williams was throwing.

              That's a scary ass picture. I'd hate to be one of Williams' family members having to see him on the canvas like that. He seriously looks dead, I hope he didn't receive any permanent damage.

                    He doesn't have to look. All he had to do is estimate and make sure he put all his weight into the punch. Smart move.
