Paul Williams is a trainer now

Fits the point, then we agree.

Byrd good, Magic lousy...okay so my analogy was 50/50
PW had talent he didn't get the most out of, hard to disagree. I may have justified it knowing he moved UP to Martinez because neither Floyd nor Manny wanted him @WW.
PW IMO had a similar issue as Diego Corrales: two linky fighters who couldn't maintain power once they moved up in weight. But that didn't address your question, so I digress....

Loads of ex-fighters train guys with styles unlike their own. And you don't need to be in the ring to give instructions between rounds.

The issue I always had with Williams, corrales, and to a degree margarito is that they were tall fighters, fighting a short fighters fight so I am split where to draw the line between talent and height. It's exciting when you mix it up, but you can take a lot of damage and a guy like corrales always had himself in a position to win fights by slugging it out. Williams size allowed him to travel up and down the scales and still probably be the bigger guy in most of the classes he fought in. Im not sure how much of the intangibles (heart, size/durability) will transfer over, as has alread been stated... i'm sure Paul can contribute, even if its an extra set of eyes (margarito, maybe just one-- sorry, i had to ).

As for getting the instruction to the fighter, I believe tyson used panama lewis for one fight and had to buy him a front row seat and had a go between parroting the instructions. I think paul may could sit on near the apron in the corner and dip under the bottom rope or talk in between them.

Deloach at right it now. You can see the similarity Heavy planted feet with little set up off jab, says "I'm past the boxing..if he hits me one time I hit him twelve times. No sign of Williams other than pre interview and walk out.

De loach even kinda looks like Paul in body type n such. More tattoos tho.

Boy did he ever score a KO too!

Paul i think realized his potential i mean the guy was 42-2 also beat everyone that ever beat him. Man had wins on Margarito, Carlos and Martinez and few other good wins was champ at 147 and 154 i would say that pretty big accomplishments i think he got the most of oh his talent.

True enough. For a guy who did it all wrong style wise he excelled. I'll never forget listening to Roy Jones insist and basically dismiss him during the Lara fight, calling openly for his retirement. Now we watch Roy pick fans out of the stands so he can still manage dominate ko's.

That has to be right up there with top 10 ko's of year so far! The poor guy literally looked like a puppet who had his strings cut and just collapsed into his legs. Brutal!
