    Yeah, he's definately taller than 6'1". I've always thought either 6'2" or 6'2 1/2.

    6'3" minimum. Like Hearns he was listed shorter than his actual height because management thought nobody would want to fight such an awkward opponent.

    With this in mind, I think its fair to say Paul can no longer make 147lbs & will not box at that weight again!

    How the fcuk he made Welter one never knows? Even with extreme dieting, the discipline, etc. Talk about a guy campaigning at an un-natural weight for himself!

    I like Williams, I'm a big fan. He's got the right attitude in respect of facing the best, facing anyone who's put in front of him. Also, he's very respectful outside the ring!

    I hope he goes on to achieve even more during his career!

    I don't know why boxrec still have him listed as 6'1, just wait and see - he'll be at least half an inch taller than Pavlik (if Pavlik actually gets in the ring).

    Arreola looks a couple inches shorter than 6 ft 4in in my opinion. 6 ft 2 or so....

    He wasn't that much shorter than McCline, that would make McCline 6'4. Briggs would be 6'2 then.
    So why can't we just agree that Williams is way taller than 6'1...

    Pavlik said he thinks Williams is 1/2" to 1" taller than he is, and KP is 6' 2 1/2"

    Arreola isn't that much shorter than Vitali as Chagaev was against Wlad, and Vitali is an inch taller than Wlad. So 6'4" could be accurate. That makes Williams 6'4" too.

    We can think all we want but the fact is Paul has said that 147 is his most comfortable weight and the last time he fought there he weighed 145 at the weigh in.
