    He has an ok chin. Was rocked by MArgarito and quintana. Does throw from amazing angles, but also doenst use his size and reach to his advantage thus allowing smaller armed fighters to land clean blows against him. While he does have power it is far from frightening. Mosley for instance broke down Margarito far better then Williams did despite landing less punches.

    He certainly has weaknesses that can be exploited.

    Very good point. I could see Martinez beating Paul Williams.

    no he wasnt... quintana NEVER dazed him even... margarito shocked his body with a punch to the stomach but never to the head


    paul williams has openly stated that the closest he has been to hurt was when he fought walter mattysshe

    Paul Williams laughs at you. He was never even close to touching the canvas.

    He sometimes uses his reach to take a break but I'm glad he doesn't because when HE COMES TO THE INSIDE TO EXCHANGE HARD BLOWS WITH HIS OPPONENT it makes for a great fight. He has exceptional inside game for someone so tall.

    Williams played the perfect gameplan against Margarito during his plaster wrecking prime. Outbox, don't outpunch. That was the only conceivable way to beat Margarito at that point during his plaster prime.

    Williams is boardering on greatness. I can sense it.

    Not horribly hurt but he he buckled and had to wrap up.

    Against MArgarito he was also hurt in the 11th. Although that might be a plus about his jaw since he took about 30 flush shots in that round and didnt go down.

    Not to mention the plaster would have began to fully harden around round 10.

    Might make for an exciting fight but it also is why he has an L to a B level fighter to his resume already.

    Fo the first 8 rounds he had a great gameplan, however his defensive liabilities were apparent when he gassed a little bit. Watch the 11th round. there is no reason to be hit that flush so many times by a less then stellar boxer in Margarito. He should have a plan B. You cant make it just throwin 1,000 punches a fight.

    Could very well be. But he still needs to improve.

    Williams has improved vastly since his fights with Margarito and Quintana.

    We dont know that yet. He hasnt been tested. Its not his fault nobody wants to fight him, but I'd like to see how he'd handle Mosleys power and speed and Cottos boxing ability. Remember, Mosley isnt afraid to stand and trade. And if williams get in a scuffle with Mosley that could be dangerous.

    Why list Angulo but leave off Kirkland?

    I pick Floyd and Cotto to beat him as I think they're the two fighters who could get past PW's insane reach advantage and outbox him ala Quintana. And possibly Pac as the guy seems to be capable of anything at this stage.
