    Clinical execution.

    I was hoping for more from Williams.

    To be fair it was a really bad first round and with how shot Liam looked in there they probably knew to stop it early as they knew he couldn't withstand much more.

    Lockett clearly knew Liam was a boxing cadaver...

    Sheeraz will do **** all against Ammo Williams. Who I think sucks. Nothing more than Liam Williams being shot to absolute ****, combined with Lockett being a gunshy puss.

    Williams is shot to pieces. It was evident in the Eubank fight. Being rocked by jabs is a sure sign you've had it.

    it wasn't just his chin William reflex is gone too. The jabs were splitting his guard over and over. He knew it was coming but just could not react

    I dont think it was unwarranted to be honest. Liam is shot to **** and has no upper body or head movement at all anymore. He was going to get hurt regardless, no need to prolong it. Let him retire uninjured

    Yeah, but have you ever seen a towel thrown in round one without a brutal knockdown? Gotta be a first...

    Crazy that Williams punch resistance is that far gone at 31, but it happens sometimes.

    Hands down the worst performance of the year so far there from Williams who has always been a complete myth on this forum.

    Williams' punch resistance is shot beyond belief. He must hold a record for the amount of times he's been dropped from jabs in his last few fights. Big Frank was banking on Williams being shot and he got it right again. Sheeraz is a good fighter but that was just sad to watch.

    I wonder if Lockett saw in training that Williams punch resistance is toast and decided to stop it?

    Liam looked that shitty early against Eubank and Andrade too. Lockett lost it and overreacted.
