Less than 2 years ago P. Williams was gonna beat everybody..

[| THE KING |]

this^^^^^^^^^^

at no point did I ever think Williams would/could beat Pacquiao or Floyd.

I've always said that with the way Williams drops his hands and leans forward when coming in (said this prior to the Martinez fights) that Manny would probably TKO/KO him.

It's easy to see that now.....but I saw that **** even back then (post Cotto and Clottey fights).

^^^^ Yup .. Paul is fun to watch.. but

I agree that his losses have shown everybody how to beat him, but if he had fought the other elite back when he was the next big thing, he still would have ended up like he did against Martinez, another true elite fighter.

Didn't come out right I think. I meant he would have ended up outboxed or ko'd against guys like Pac and Floyd.

How were you wrong? Because he had his prime removed from him in 2 Martinez fights? I liked a 147 Pound prime Paul against any WW. He wouldve been a tough match for both which is why they both never entertained the thought.

I hate how people are laughing it up at Pauls expense its crap considering Paul gave EVERYTHING he had to the sport we love.

Because, turns out, Paul simply wasn't as good as people thought he was.

His size and output would have been an issue but looking back it wouldn't have been anything the couldn't handle. They didn't want to fight him, no one did. Not his fault.

I'm not laughing at Paul Williams' expense. Like I said, I like Paul Williams, he's a throwback fighter.

He just wasn't as good as everyone once thought.
