Wishing him the best and for a happy life. One hell of an entertaining, gutsy fighter.

I just found out about this. This is crazy. I know we here in boxingscene love to joke around but this will be one of the few times I have to be serious. I feel bad for P-Will. I was just thinking about the September bout with Canelo.

Dam, I'm still trippin off of this. Get well P-Will.

Wish the best for Paul W. My advice for everyone is : don't drive motorcycles, the risk is too high. You could be driving injury -free for years until...baam!! Better to have a compact car, use public transportation, or even a bicycle.

Really hurt my heart to read this when I read the subject. Prayers and strength for Paul and his family....

Wow. Wishing Paul a speedy recovery and great health. He's alive is what counts, thanks to the helmet. But so sad. Now someone needs to invent a contraption to prevent bike riders from suffering spinal cord injuries in tragic accidents.

Wishful thinking. I know.

Actually I think if motor-bicycle riders wors aback plate from helmet to saddle costructed somewhat like the helmet is this would afford good protection.

There are points about this tragedy which compare with what happened to Diego Corrales. Both coming from a party at an early orning hour, It hasn't yet been released whether Williams was up all night partying or had normal sleep time as befitted a man in training.

One thing....he was in the OUTSIDE lane. Why should this have been, unless he was either going at the speed limit, or overtaking. Being on a motor-bike it would be more prudent to be in the INSIDE, slower lane. And when he saw the driver was "drifting', why didn't he slow down and get behind the guy.

From the restricted dimensions of a road lane, the inside car must have veered outward pretty quickly, rather than drifted slowly, for him to need to re-act in a split second, with only one choice. Tragic.

I just added boxing updates to my phone when I upgraded last week. Tapia's death and PWill's paralysis are the two of the 1st updates I got. Really terrible on both ends.

They said Bruce Lee would never walk again. They said Pazienza would neither. He came back and won a title. Fight on Punisher.

God Has His Best In Place For Paul Williams

Bruce Lee and Vinny Pazienza never had this sort of injury. More importantly, God has gone before us, putting His best plans in place for each of us who believe and place our faith in Him. It doesn't have to make sense for what we are asked to endure, but we have to remain faithful and trusting in Him. His plans for us, may never be revealed, until we're given NEW glorified bodies in Heaven one day. But it's quite obvious that when God chose not to take Paul Williams home, and keep him with us, God has a very good reason why. Paul Williams will make a real impact on the second half of his life. Galatians 2:20.
