    It's VERY possible that Paul Williams fought the best fighter in the world to a stanstill and won a close decision in their first fight and then got blasted out in the second fight after looking good.

    That's no reason to shi t on him and act like he can barely hand a Joel Julio.

    We'll see how he comes back from the ko, but you can't deny paul's resume.

    He has a legit win over a prime Sergio Martinez, how many on your list could retire with that?
    close fight but i have it 115-113 being as generous as possible for Paul in martinez I. Margarito and the controversial Sergio win are his only significant wins. I don't rate the verno or winky wins as anything to brag about. Sharmba was towards the end of his career and small and Matthysse after Wiliams has lost 4 of 5 with 3 losses by KO. solid but again nothing to brag as being elite
    i think his resume is exaggerated too.

    we really see the cintron fight differently and discussion what could have happened and imaginary things that didn't happen have no validity. I could just as easily say that Cintron would have continued to sucessfully counter him and end up knocking him out.

    like i said to no ceilings julio is a pretty decent boxer but would not be able to handle williams pressure same as the Angulo fight but that's only if he could take Julio's power which is solid 154 Lb punching power and i honestly dont know if he can. like with most of the guys i mentioned.

    you're baseing his chin on his 147 career. i'm questioning it at 154 where in his two fights with solid punchers he has shown to be stunned or hurt by them with Cintron and Martinez.

      how did you think cintron fared against sergio vs paul.

      the fact that you're downplaying paul's win (either way it was a 1 point win for whoever) show's me you're hating. it was a great performance by both guys that should not be discounted.

      cintron is not known for coming on in fights. pwill is as evidenced by the MANY examples I gave you that you are treating as me trying to get credit for paul's wins. i was using tose as examples to show that paul is a rhythm fighter who frequently fights better as he gets his rhythm
