    I don't really buy into the comparison between Hearns and Williams solely based on a statement by Max Kellerman.... From my viewpoint, it appears that many fans and followers of the business / sport of boxing, DON'T give a rats hairy ass as to what Kellerman really thinks.... I can deal with Max Kellerman, but I have NOT learned one goddamn thing from Max and some of his psycho babble.... I've been following this racket longer than he has..... Just because "Bugged-Eyed" Max gets a lot of exposure from ESPN and HBO, doesn't mean he's the voice of boxing...... No pun intended....:nono :yikes

    I have learned from Larry Merchant and Al Bernstein.....

    MR.BILL

    P.S.

    I've also learned from KO and Ring magazine, as well.... Though, I very rarely ever read them mags anymore.... I gave up on papers and magazines back around 2004 or '05..... I'm an ESB diehard....

    Like to see Williams against Spinks or really any of the jr Middle Title holders.

    I gave up on Cory Stinks a while ago... Or, after his 2005 KO loss to Judah.... Cory has no power, but he is slick and quick.... He is alright, but I'd bet on Paulie Williams to smack him around for the tactical win over 10 or 12 rds....:huh

    Out of place? He merely said Paul was BUILT PHYSICALLY like Tommy :lol:

    Jesus. His body punching was really good. It's not like he was saying he was greater than those two fighters.

    I never ever thought Williams and Pipino Cuevas had anything in common.... Williams MIGHT be similar to MICHAEL NUNN in a way.... Though, Prime Nunn schools Williams with ease.......... Cheers....

    Kellerman is a tool of the highest order in general, this cannot be denied.

    The fact that people take Williams' physical attributes and somehow think he is a Tommy Hearns is astonishing.

    Well, be as it may, Paulie Williams is NOT gonna be a big star in boxing and bring in huge PPV numbers at the rate he is going.... He is starting to fizzle like a firework that has slowed to a crawl..... I will NOT drop 40 to 50 USA bucks on a 'Paul Williams' PPV event...... NO WAY!!

    I like Tony Margarito and his style and desire......... I know Williams has a win over Margo, but I do NOT care..... Tony Margarito generally brings excitement to boxing....... Paul Williams is growing stale.......... Cheers....

    Would him being a southpaw make that a problem with the booming right hand?
