Cleveland Williams..this is about my favorite fighter cleveland big cat williams

I ordered a 1980 january ring issue because it said on the back”finding the big cat” but i am one of his biggest fans i have never read this so im tuned and once it comes ill share it with everyone, i also have had a dream about the big cat being at my grandpas house and doing a sleep over it was weird man but im excited to read this

 

You're about to get stomped on by the Anti-Williams club.

 

lol why? lemme guess the first guy to come and throw tomatos is probably choklab

 

You're educated already. Choklab is actually not even the most vicious of that bunch, but they'll come from all directions just cuz of how positive your thread is on Williams.

 

What did Cleveland do wrong?

 

Absolutely nothing.

 

oh im waiting im waiting on them to come and degrade mr williams actually i have a video that jusr has some rare and common photos of cleveland williams

cleveland hit to hard to so choking lab likes to say he dont hit hard and is a bum

 

I’m a fan of Cleve’s. The 2 x punch outs vs Sonny are classics which seem less often included when slugfests like Shavers v Lyle and Foreman v Lyle are mentioned. .

His later career effort to hang tough and see out the fight vs Chuvalo was a great credit to him also. He could still punch and stopped George dead in his tracks on a few occasions. George was already busted up by the early rounds.

I liked how he and Liston appeared to have a respectful connection outside the ring - certainly there is that great photo of Liston visiting Cleve in hospital after he was hit by the bullet. You could see how wasted Cleve had become before building himself back up. There’s a photo online of a recovered (never fully, of course) Williams meeting back up with the policeman involved.

Here’s a nice FB page dedicated to the Big Cat:-

Don’t worry Tonto will soon come to the rescue and back you up!

 

A very very, hard puncher

 

Williams seems to be almost as divisive a figure here as a certain little Italian/American.

 

Here is what I think of Cleveland Williams:

Pre-shot Williams: Overrated
Post-shot Williams: Underrated.

 

i joined that to yea i have that photo of him and liston and the officer with william on my video of him man just worked so hard but didn’t get much im hoping hes in heaven his wife left him and took his baby he was left sad and lonley and miserable
