    Yeh he is living and learning his new life.

    His career is over unfortunately.

    Give him a few years before any real news, they hope he can get feeling again in his lower body one day.


    Good luck to him.

    i read a recent study where doctors now can clone stemm cells. Thats a hope for millions of people who are paralyzed allover the world, including Paul Williams.

    Stem cell research isn't outlawed.
    There is a slight chance Paul will walk, his spine was bruised, not torn.

    I can only guess he is living his life, still doing rehab, and taking it as it goes.

    Why would we guess?

    I, by the way, have no update. If you would like me to make something up like everyone else please let me know.

    Probably getting a lap dance on his wheelchair as we speak. I know all of us are hoping he'll fully recover. But whether he does or not - he'll be fine. He's made a good amount of money. If it doesn't compensate for his disability it at least helps a lot. My brother is in a wheelchair for the rest of his life and he's able to find happiness despite such tragedy. He is the life of a party.

    Don't expect any more updates or interviews...etc considering his promoter is Dan Goossen.

    I watched his 2007 fight vs Margarito yesterday. What a war!

    He called Out Mayweather and Cotto at the post-fight interview. He is still waiting for them...
