Do You Feel Paul Williams Has The Chance To Rise To Top 3 P4P?

Definitively, he could a top p4p if he continues to do big fights.

 

That was ridiculous too

 

Hell no, I personally think he's one of the most overated fighters in the world

I mean really he got a close win over margarito and went one a piece with Quintana...I don't understand why people would even consider having this guy in a top 10, there are plenty of guys with better resumes out there

 

I hope Danny Jacobs gets to fight PW.

 

P4P isn't based off resumes.

 

I say give him another year, then they can fight.

 

You mean, the way Soliman did? Soliman was punching gloves all night long and getting countered. I see people bringing up Soliman's name as some kind of barometer as to how Paul is supposedly going to beat Winky.

First off, the only similarity Soliman and Paul share is that they both throw a lot of punches. The similarities end there. Winky will counter Paul much like Quintana did in his first fight with Paul.

Paul isn't as fast as Soliman, doesn't move around as much, and he stands right in front of his opponent when he throws combinations. Winky is going to feast on that style.

 

But will we get the Winky that we're used too or will he be old?

 

if he gets by Winky I would put him top 5 ..... thats a big IF.

He needs to get the big fights, problem is ... he is a 6'2 southpaw with an 82' reach and good skills and a solid chin... who is going to want to fight him?

 

Honestly, I think Winky knows this is his last hurrah. He knows that if he loses this fight then his viability factor becomes next to nothing. Does his inactivity hurt him? I'm sure it does. I think it was stupid of him to remain inactive for so long but hopefully he has kept in shape and has an amazing training camp. I think he'll be ready to give Williams hell.

 

News to me....then what's it's based off of?

 

Any of the bigger named 154-160 lb. fighters would be willing to fight him I'd bet. This fight with Winky is easily his toughest fight to date.

 

Not only,but resume is a part of it.Accomplishments,H2H ability,level of opposition etc are other parts.

 

Accomplishments, H2H, and even popularity.
