Paul Williams had piss poor career management. He wanted fights against the best WW’s, but didn’t stay there long enough to get them. He moved up after Quintana 2, called out WWs while he was fighting at 154/160, and then had the audacity to say they were ducking him. The funny part is, the boxing community fell for it. It was genius marketing though. You got people til this day the believed he was ducked at WW.

He beat Margarito for the WBO title. He lost the title in his very next fight. He rematched Quintana, won his title back, and then ran to 160 for next fight. That’s not gonna get you big fights at 147.

It’s entirely possible he could no longer make the weight and was just talking shyt to market himself. Now, I do believe Pavlik ducked him at 160.

All facts

I think more are trying to diminish berchelt...talking like he was the worst champion at 130 :heh:
None of these dudes at 130 have really challenged themselves to separate themselves from the pack, 130 is basically the same as 168. Good win for Valdez but Berchelt got propped up a bit too much for beating shopworn Asian and Latino brawlers, dude was managed well.

At the end of the day he still has the best recent win in the weight class.
