Everlast Worldwide Inc and former WBO welterweight boxing champion Paul Williams announced a long term agreement.
The agreement allows Williams to exclusively wear Everlast footwear, apparel and professional fight gloves.
Williams is best known for his incredible ability to defeat his opponents by knockout. Originally from Aiken, South Carolina, his natural fighting ability led him to the ring at the age of 19. It quickly became apparent that Williams had superior technical abilities and strength and he turned pro in July of 2000 after only 20 amateur fights.
Matt Cowan, Director of Sports Marketing for Everlast Worldwide comments, “Paul Williams' physical stature and relentless fighting style is a true representation of the strength and dedication that our brand was built upon. He is a champion in and out of the ring, and we are extremely proud to welcome Paul and his team to the Everlast family.”
With his first professional defeat against Carlos Quintana behind him, Williams is ready to reenter the ring for Quintana vs. Williams II this weekend and regain his WBO Welterweight Championship belt. Williams will be outfitted in custom Everlast attire and Everlast professional fight gloves during the fight.
