Williams Punishes Shamba, Calls Out Margarito After Dark

Undefeated welterweight Paul “The Punisher” Williams is ready

Undefeated welterweight Paul “The Punisher” Williams pounded former two-time champion Shamba Mitchell to the canvas four times in four rounds before ref Vic Draculich waved off the fight at 2:57.

The bout was at the Reno Events Center in Reno, Nevada, and was broadcast on HBO’s Boxing After Dark as desert after a meal with Maskaev.

The 25-year-old Paul Williams, hailing from Aiken, Georgia, has 31 wins in 31 fights (23 KOs) and is ranked #1 by the IBF, WBA, WBC and WBO. He is also, as Max Kellerman described him on the B.A.D broadcast, a unique freak.

Unique because Williams is a 6-foot-1-inch welterweight in a land of short men (Sharmba Mitchell, the mean, the norm, stands at 5-7).

Unique because Paul Williams has an 82 reach.

To call Paul Williams a string bean would be misleading, because is all red meat.

After his dismantling of Sharmba Saturday night (it took Mayweather 6 rounds to accomplish the same feat), the victorious Williams called out the other champs: “Margarito, Baldomir, Floyd anyone at ’47 with one of those big belts,” he said. “New blood in the sport.”
