:laughing::laughing: Not SERIOUSLY...But Can U just Imagine how FUNNY they'd Look N the Ring Together???...Williams is a FOOT Taller & his REACH is the Equivalent of Manny Pac's BODY LENGTH... REED::
Not necessarily Reed. Pacman is 5'6, Williams is listed at 6'1 but probably closer to 6'2 or so. Tua at around 5'9 had a pretty tough time against 6'5 Lewis.
Pac is so much more coordinated and faster than Williams. Paul Williams doesn't even fight tall, he likes to bang on the inside. :: I'd bet $1000 against anyone that Pac would stop Williams late ::
SURELY, they're JOKING...The Only "Trouble" Williams would Have w/Pac is HITTING him...But UNlike DeLa, Williams would NEVER Become GUNSHY, he'd CONSTANTLY Throw Shots @ Manny & he's a Southpaw HIMSELF... & Besides that, Manny would Need a Running Start AND a StepLadder to Hit Williams N the Head... REED:mj:
Exactly right I think. People who have seen Pacman in real life put him at 5'5 rather than 5'6, which is normal, they usually add an inch to boxers in the short category. And Williams, just NO WAY he is 6'1. Marge apparently is a legit 5'11, and Williams was much more than 2 inches taller. Even Lampley said "This is the biggest 2 inch height difference I've ever seen". Question is - why do they list Paul as being shorter than he really is? Does he want to downplay his height, so as to stop it being seen as a big advantage, or does he hunch a bit when measured?
i think there's a lot of interesting fights for pacquiao at 140 and 147. Williams isn't one of them. Does Wiliams even plan to return to 147? I'm hoping pacquiao fights Hatton, and like he did with ODH, beats him even easier than PBF. PBF will slowly be exposed as Pacquiao continues to dole out beaatings. He'll have no choice but to fight him and he'll lose to him and all will be right with the world. Both of course will duck Margarito.
Yeah, you're right Baron. It's unbelievable to think that Paul Williams, a fighter who disregards his best physical advantage during fights, and might be expected to eat 60%+ of Pacquiao's shots wouldn't go the distance. That's ridiculous.
I´ll take it, straight up, you got Manny TKO 9-12. I´ll bet against it. ...but the money goes to secure place before the fight.
Come on dude, you're going overboard here and you totally disregard Paul's other attributes, i.e. his workrate, his decent power and his very good chin. Even if he doesn't fully use his height advantage, his arms are still almost as long as Manny's tall. I really don't see Manny beating Paul, and I really don't see Manny looking for this fight either.
I'm with Bama. Paul is TALL, but doesn't fight tall, and has no defense. Manny would just be zipping around the ring whacking tall paul whenever he pleases. It would be one sided, Manny would win an easy decision.
A 7 inch height advantage is only useful when it's actually used. Paul Williams is a tall guy who doesn't fight tall, that's just a simple fact.
To Stop it from Being PERCEIVED as a Big Advantage, but Also to Fuck w/the Head of his Opponents...The Opponents THINK Williams' Height is as Listed, but when they're NEXT To Him or having a STAREDOWN w/him, he's MUCH Taller... It's Done for PSYCHOLOGICAL Reasons... REED:kidcool:
