Professional Career

Williams made his professional debut in 2006 with a first-round TKO win over Jason Medina. Williams won his first eight bouts, all by knockout or TKO. He lost for the first time to 14-0-1 Marcus Oliveria in 2008. Williams knocked Oliveria down in the third and sixth rounds, but ran out of gas and was knocked out in the seventh round of the scheduled eight rounder. In his most recent bout in 2017, Williams drew with unbeaten Liberian Mengistu Zarzar over eight rounds in a bout for Williams' Minnesota State Cruiserweight title. The judges scored the bout three different ways.
