Liam Williams back with Gary Lockett & reflects on Eubank fight. How far can he go?

Found his level really. European level, fringe contender. He's tough but chinny, and has defensive holes that have been exploited at the higher level.

 

His punch resistance against Eubank looked non existent.

 

Really like him as a fighter, looked devastating on the run from the second Smith fight. That Eubank fight was weird, I think he won more rounds than Eubank if I remember right but was just dropped over and over by jabs and other feeble shots.

 

Yeah it was weird. You are right he lost as he could not hold jabs. Was concerning for his health.

 

European title level. The amount he blinks can’t be helpful in avoiding punches.

 

Apparently he absolutely crashed the weight for that fight, I'm sure it's been mentioned before but that was the main reason for his punch resistance. Someone said it was something to do with how Booth made him make weight for the fight.

 

Ok, would explain it. If that's not the case he needs to retire.

 

If he sees Benn's doctor probably a lot further.

 

He’s hit his ceiling. Game but limited. Sam Eggington esque.

 

Heard he was 11lbs over the day before the weigh in.

 

He looked really good (probably on the ingle pringles) for a while

but like others have said hes found his level at European level. Would be in good to see him in with the likes of Sam Eggington, Denzel Bentley, Kieron Conway.

 

His weight cut for that fight was a shambles apparently

 

I liked him aswell but he does seem to choke when he gets a big name opponent.

 

I think he said Booth didn’t really offer any input on this, where as Ingle would nurse you through the cut.

Eubank didn’t really get out of first gear and toyed with him, he did drop rounds but had gears to go through. If Eubank is just below world level, Williams would be European level at best
