Many will remember former welterweight champion Paul Williams fondly for his entertaining fights in the ring, and also how he was so avoided as a fighter by a lot of the big guns during his active boxing career.
The former world champion had his career tragically cut short after a motorcycle accident left him paralyzed from the waist down in 2012.
A return of the caliber of a boxing man like Williams to the sweet science circuit as a coach can only be a good thing, with the former champion saying this week:
“I’m scared all over again, like this is my first fight.”
Williams will hook up with super-welterweight Justin DeLoach as his first fighter, who will take on Dillian Cook at 154lbs later this month on March 25th live on Showtime.
