Most of your info researched and corrected;
With the exception of Tim Leonard which U will have to
get the Florida Commission to change his name to Timmy.

There is no S in John Roman William.

You moved the S from William and put it on Roman. Now it reads John Romans William.

:roll: Tell it to the Commish. :wink:
John Romans William is the name listed in every Fight Fax Record Book since 2001 which covers
his whole career. It is also the name he used in his first fight in Florida according to the “Official”
Commission Report. Unfortunately the commission (and some Media reports) listed him as John
Williams in his last fight which probably caused the name change by a well intentioned editor on
BoxRec. He has been announced as John Williams more times than any other name.

He’s only has himself and his corner to blame for the confusion; Before Florida, he used Roman
Williams
in Costa Rica (La Nación 03-03-2006) and before that he used Juan Roman in California
according to the CA Commission report.

If U want his name changed; get the commission to fax BoxRec an addendum.
