    me, i wanna see him use his height better. paul williams vastly improves every time i see him, but i wanna see him jab more and create distance, punishing his opponent with a straight left or left uppercut should he ever get inside williams gaurd. what do you guys think?

    Nothing. Just win. He's done everything right as of late, in my opinion.

    I guess your boy Pavlik didn't think he could do it that's why acted like a ***** and ran.

    I'd like to see him really snap the jab out and pick his punches a little better. I love the fact he can throw 1000 punches a fight but I'd like a little more quality over quantity; not just drowning his opponents in a sea of activity but using his reach and throwing hard punches to really break his opponent down.

    thats exactly what i wanna see:good, this guy has the potential to be our generations tommy hearns. we all know he's tough as nails and has inhuman stamina, but i wanna see him box more instead of purely out-punching or out toughing his opponent.

    Yeah, he's definitely not short of potential.

    When he does step into his punches, he does seem to have good power (not reminiscent of Hearns or anything but still quite deceptive) like he showed in the Quintana rematch. I liked the way he went to the body against Phillips and even though the jab is a good weapon for him, I think with his reach he should be able to win fights one-handed if he uses it to it's full potential.

    He definitely has all the ingredients and he's probably in everyone's top 10 P4P at the moment but if he could put it all together, he could be something really special.

    I'd like to see improved accuracy. PW's connect rate rarely exceeds 24% in any given round. He needs to think less about volume, and actually hit his opponent. He misses guys who are standing flat footed in front of him for **** sake.

    Better defense; Paul gets tagged repeatedly by straight rights, straight lefts, and left hooks over and over and over everytime he faces anyone with any skill at all. At 147 he got away with using his chin as his primary defense. At higher weights that will cause him serious problems.
