Why Do Some Of You Place So Much Worth In The Quintana Fight?

bla bla bla..cause quintana kicked his ass

 

losses and hard fights are a good indicator of what a fighter does wrong and what his flaws are. When those flaws can be exploited by a guy on the level of Carlos Quintana to the point of losing 8 rounds then its normal to factor them in. I believe that Quintana fghts very well off the backfoot and is a good mover and that footwork threw PW off.

However i think that today PW has improved his headmovement and CQ would have a hard time connecting on him as much as he did a year ago and would eat some leather for it.

 

Are you serious?

If so, did you watch the fight, that was a close fight. Not an ass kicking by any means.

 

better question ..why do williams fans act like it never happened

 

Walkwith yer a good dude, you're a solid cat and as a poster you're pretty fair but...relax.

I mean this Paul Williams thing is bordering upon creepy now.

 

Because Quintana gasses out quickly and lacks a great defense. . But he was able to outbox Paul Williams over the course of 12 rounds.

& IMO a more aggressive fighter would've taken Paul out of there.

With that said, The Williams which fought Quintana is no where near the same caliber as the Williams that fought Wright. Non-Stop punches, True definition of punches in bunches, and Beautiful angles.

 

Because Quintana kicked his ass...his expression in the later rounds said it all!!!!

 

Williams has improved...but the same problems remain for the most part.

His head movement has improved, he still brings his hands back too slowly, he still is over aggressive at times and he still takes poor angles on punches.

The thing is much like another flawed fighter (Manny Pac), he's so aggressive and relentless that unless you're a finicky fighter with outstanding counter punch and workrate abilities, you're going to get eaten alive.

Guys like Calzaghe are all wrong for him though as is Dzinziruk.

 

Simply put, Quintana isn't that good of a fighter and the loss is fairly recent. Although Williams is improving rapidly, it doesn't mean the loss never occurred, nor does it mean nothing can be taken from the fight in terms of technical analysis.

 

Manny was a weight drained teenager collecting cigarettes and living in a cardboard box. Mitchell was Hopkins first damned pro fight.

Does it really make sense to compare Freddie Norwood to Carlos Quintana?

 

It's brought up because alot of people belive the key to beating Williams is thru using a Speed/Boxing counter style. But it is defo alot easier said than done.

 

Just out of curiosity...how many topics are you gonna create about Paul Williams? Is this something that can be expected from you every time he fights? Being a fan is one thing, but you sir are borderline obsessive.
