Arthur Williams (boxer)

Arthur Williams (boxer)

Arthur "King" James Williams (born November 12, 1964 in Pensacola, Florida) is a professional boxer.

Williams became professional in 1989 and fell short in his first shot at a major championship title, a 1994 split-decision loss to Orlin Norris for the World Boxing Association Cruiserweight Title. Williams was knocked out in the third round in a rematch with Norris later that year. It was not until 1998 that Williams got another shot at a title belt, a 1998 bout with Imamu Mayfield for the International Boxing Federation Cruiserweight Title. Williams lost the belt in his first defense to cruiserweight phenom Vassiliy Jirov in a seventh-round knockout. Williams has since become more of a journeyman than a contender, and has lost in bouts against O'Neil Bell and Kelvin Davis (boxer).
