What rds did he give away to Winky? He starched him from the opening bell. He knocked Martinez down in the 1st rd...granted he was later knocked down as well. He ko'd Quintana in the 1st in the rematch. He didnt see to give away much against Vernon Phillips as well. And as you stated he pretty much starched Margarito for the first 6 rds. Imo... I think it would be much more accurate to say he's starts fast. I guess you can say that PWill starts fast... But his style is to overwhelm you which normally doesn't happen until later in the fight. I just don't think it's fair to assume PWill was getting "roughed up" against Cintron especially after 3 rounds were completed. PWill is a fighter that gets stronger as the fight goes on. |

Paul Williams starts off and fights at one pace, and a very fast pace. His opponents become overwhelmed half way through because they can't keep up with the pace anymore, not really because Williams turns it up. Becomes too much for them by half way. I personally think he fights at one pace, and that is fast. You're exactly right... PWill has the style that overwhelms his opponents. Judging 3 rounds of the Cintron fight isn't really the best way to classify Williams in a P4P discussion. |

My criticism of Paul is that he often fights to the level of his opposition. He is a warrior though. On the other thread, the 'glad it didn't happen thread', I'd say he dodged a bullet not fighting Hopkins. |

I think his ability to take so many flush shots will catch up to him eventually. He's 29 and he's in his prime but it would not surpise me to see him done by age 33.

That's the most frustrating thing with PWill. He has only fought once this year and that fight ended on some bullshit. He has no other fight planned thus far and his prime years are ticking. I only give him another 2 or 3 years before he slows down. His last interview sounded like he was slurring a bit. |

When I originally stated "Cintron roughed up Williams in those 3 rounds, that was ONLY to mess with Dmarv a little. It obviously worked cause he mentioned it a few time already. And for the record, OF COURSE you can not judge a fight off of just 3 rounds, I was just baiting you with that statement.

On another note,I thought Cintron won that fight based on those couple of rounds..I gave em all except for maybe 1 to Cintron..I thought it was easy to score that fight.. |

PWill doesn't slur. James Toney Slurs but PWill does talk like his tongue is too fat though. I noticed that a long time ago. He seems to have missed a few English classes back in his day.

I think the weight jumping is effecting Williams. If he goes to welter, I would not be surprised to see him lose to someone I would have otherwise picked him over.
