    It looks like the source is the website of a local CBS tv station. If someone were to break it, it would be a local station. Seems legit. The story is only 40 minutes old so I doubt the boxing media has had time to report it, let alone even hear about it.

      American mass media doesn't care about boxing. Plus today is a Holiday, not a lot of people working out there.

      What possible incentive could anyone have to invent a story such as this? If they were gonna make up a hoax it would be Alex Rodriguez, not Paul Williams.

        Damn horrible news if true. Corrales died like this and Anthony Dirrell broke his legs. People need to get off the bike unless they got enough experience.

        Now on the boxing front, who is Golden Boy gonna find to replace Punisher?

          everyone I know who drives motorcyles exclusively has gotten into at least one accident. Every single one.

                Someone said it is an ABC affiliate? Disney owns ABC and ESPN...they would have this story before someone on boxing scene would just through fact checking and whatnot.

                    Wow that's really ****ing B.S. I was so looking forward to his fight with canelo.
                    But this is even worse! Paralyzed man. How do you even freeking live. I was hoping that Medical Technology would have already solved this problem. All the billions spent on drugs should go toward curing these problems. Dam man. By the time 2020 comes around there better be a mainstream cure to being paralyzed - or else our race is screwed!

                      Hope he recovers and has some form of a good life. I hope his recovery goes well.
