    Not even close, Hearns was a true ATG and demolished nearly anyone not resembling an A+ level opponent. Paul Williams was badly outboxed by Carlos Quintana for ****s sake.

    No, far from Hitman. And that's not a knock at all on Williams. He's big and bad ass. But Hitman was on another level. Skill, speed and power in a wonderful package.

    Kole is a Middleweight who was never stopped before and Paul is a guy who can fight at Welterweight. If it was Margarito scoring the KO against Kole in the first round you would all over it, hell you guys are all over wins over Six Heads Lewis, Manuel Gomez and Golden Johnson for God's sake. :lol:

    Why isn't a rematch on exactly?

    physically they look the same, but i dont see the similarity when they're fighting.
    Hearns looks more precise and always seem to look for the KO's. PW, is like a softer version. Maybe because Hearns has that intimidating look in him, whilst PW looks like a basketball player getting ready for the jumpball.

    Yes, he is.

    Apart from the fact he doesn't have his power, he's much more flawed technically and will never achieve anything remotely close to what Hearns achieved.

    Williams and Hearns is not Gary Coleman fighting the Hulk. Comparing them now is ludicrous. When it is all said and done...then we can compare them.

    I was waiting for this comparison to be made...

    I think its a little unfair though. Hearns had an awesome punch, Williams whilst having a good one is not near Hearns in this bracket. However he is busier than Hearns was and there are obvious physical similarites and the weight thing could happen for Williams if he conditions himself right. Hearns was awesome, at the moment Williams is good. Its not fair to compare the two at this stage in Williams' career for me.

    He fought and beat the current best at Welterweight who is also running away from a rematch when he's supposed to be the one going after it. What weakest links are you talking about cab driver?, he's fighting guys that are available and WILLING to fight, want to mention names of guys that he should fight instead?, he already called out Margarito for a rematch and was ducked in the face with a PATHETIC excuse and we know exactly why.

    absolutely not stylistically, but perhaps in accomplishments. I'm not saying he will, but if someone is to do it, who has a better chance than him?
