On This Day: Paul “The Punisher” Williams Defeats Antonio Margarito
Paul Williams, AKA “The Punisher,” really did seem to be on the road to greatness. The tall (as in Thomas Hearns-like height and reach) southpaw was capable of pumping out 100 punches a round in a fight, and this he did back on July 14 of 2007, when he scored a unanimous decision victory over the feared Antonio Margarito, the win seeing Williams take the WBO welterweight title.
