Arthur "King" James Williams (born November 12, 1964) is a former 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.
His current record is 47-17-1 with 30 KO's. In 2010, Williams defeated Valente Tinajero (8-0, 4 KO's) on the Holyfield-Botha Undercard.
In December 2010, Williams, 46, lost a ten-round decision to Carl Davis for the vacant USBO Cruiserweight title in Chicago, Illinois, in his last major bout.
