Now this thread is not to kick a guy while he is down because I hope he makes a full recovery regardless if he is able to fight again. But, I am just so angry at him for putting himself at such risk. In one of his first interviews after the wreck he said he can't wait to get back on his bike! He almost kills himself, which the pd state that the accident was his fault, and he wants to get back on his bike. what is it with Paul Williams who refuses to admit mistakes and therefore learn from them. That is how life works. No ones perfect and when we screw up we admit it and try not to make the same mistake again. But what does Paul say, he says "its how the cookie crumbles". I'm just angry that he ruined his career and most importantly his life. Right now people are their for him, fans, media, but a year down the road or 5 yrs, it will be much different, just ask Gerald Mcclellan. He says if he does not walk again oh well he will be fishing. Does he fathom how difficult it is to be paralyzed for life? Constant danger of blood clots, you have to wear diapers, you can never have sex again, its no joke.
The same thing in his boxing career. He would never admit he needed to change or even slightly adjust his style, even when it was obvious he needed a change. I'm just pissed off, just as I was pissed off with Diego Corrales for throwing his life away on that bike. Young men and motorcylces do not go well together. No matter how good of a rider you are, its not good enough, because you are putting your life in the hands of every driver on the road and that is not a chance anyone should take. I love bikes, but again your life is not in your hands its in the hands of a bunch of idiot strangers. I do hope that boxing managers and promoters are finally putting their foot down with their young fighters who want to ride bikes. They need to put it in their contracts that their fighters are not allowed to ride bikes at all!
