What are you all talking about, Max NEVER said Paul was the new hearns or like hearns, he said "He has a frame like Hearns, a stance like Whitiker, and hits the body like Chavez." You P-Will haters need to calm down.
The only thing he said was that Williams was built like Tommy Hearns. No other comparisons with Hearns were made.
The only thing similar with Paul and Tommy would be their physical demensions....other than that they are very different...different styles, different talents and different strengths. Tommy is definitly a legend and Paul has a lot of work to do to meet the greatness tommy had,.....but I think Paul can do it with what he's shown us up to this point.
I think Paul Williams will end up looking like another Michael Nunn. P.W. will look hot and cold for the next few years then get iced, and he'll begin to slide down and fade away... Williams may win a title or two at 154 to 160 pounds, but he'll never be a world beater or prove total greatness.... In my view, Paul Williams is part pro and part con; he'll get exposed as his competition improves... Cheerio.... MR.BILL:rasta P.S. I'd like to see Williams fight somebody his own size, instead of beating on midgets and dwarfs, etc....:yikes
Closest Ive seen anyone come to being like Tommy Hearns is Kermit Cintron in this fight not in look's but Tall skinny frame, Same wild Bomb's being thrown and ultimately Same Kronk Short's see what you think? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qd_zqXRdVzk&feature=related
