I see him being overrated. I mean, he's a good fighter and is tough but he lacks fundamental boxing skills and he isn't really the superstar they the have started selling.
He beat Pavlik yes, a very slow fighter and obviously not in the better shape of his career both mentally and physically and yes he knocked Williams out cool but I'm very surprised we waited for so long to see someone doing that to him, the guy is only "height and reach" end of the line.
Williams used to dominate smaller and slower boxers with his height, reach and volume punching and in the process looked superman, but all was smoke and mirrors + HBO.
Ironically exact at the same moment that Martinez knocked out Williams he was wide open also for a counter meaning a faster and more accurate fighter could caused the same result against him. He drop his hands way too much and his defense is bad at best. How many of you guys remember in the way he was knocked out by Margarito? I strongly believe that the result would be the same in a rematch any day with the same Margarito that fought Manny Pacquiao.
