Comments Thread For: Goossen: "Paul Williams May Return To 147-Pounds"

Too be expected. He should rematch Cintron at 154 first. Cintron was winning that fight.

I say Williams is a 154-160 pounder with a 81 inch reach he doesn't use. He needs a new trainer not division. Dude fought a ****** fight and no matter where he fights it will catch up to him sooner or later.

The whole argument of his size is just so much of a mismatch and unfair is such bull. If we truly think this then, perhaps lets petition to get Lebron out of the NBA. I mean its not fair that he has size, speed, and athletic ablility like no one else, and no one can guard him. Its just not fair.....Or is this completely different?

why would you petition a guy who hasnt won a ring? if Lebron has been winning championship every year for the past 3 or 4 years yeah maybe your logic would be relevant. Lebron is good but no heart.

As long as the rematch is on ESPN it's cool with me.

That's a shame. Paul Williams is big enough to stay in the higher
weights and make a big impact if he changes his style up and tighten
up his defense. Going down to WW is only going to have him not
being active because even after the KO, the guys there most likely
still won't fight Williams because of his size. I think 154 would be
good for him if he thinks he is not good enough to compete at the
higher weights.

you completely missed the point....its not about his accomplishments or his short comings (which will be plenty )

can't compare boxing to team sports. it's not the same. even if lebron's athleticism is too much for anyone else in that position, you can always switch up your defense to counter what he's doing.

you can't do that in boxing.

I agree. going back down to 147 lbs is a cop out.

if pwill is willing to learn the boxing craft and learn some defense, he can become a great MW champ. but going back down to 147 lbs means he would rather beat up on midgets than improve his boxing skills. shameful.

yep. pwill is a big dude and he has the ability to beat anyone at 154-160, but he needs to capitalize on his natural attributes as well as develop his boxing skills.

if pwill becomes a real student of the the sport and improves his defense, it's possible he could hang with 168 lbers.

and knowing that a 6'3" boxer wanting to go back to welterweight after havent fought in that division in years makes me laugh...its kinda like me wanting to fight guys closer to 5ft that weights only 150...im not that low

honestly, it's pretty shameful.

pwill needs to improve his boxing skills by getting a new trainer, not improve his diet by getting a new nutritionist.
