Terrel Williams’ Facebook posts have vanished after years of abuse and threats over the Prichard Colón fight.
The disappearance removes the only public portal left for supporters to reach Williams indirectly.
World Boxing News has documented the dormant page for years, with the same Facebook account repeatedly becoming a breeding ground for abuse, threats, and calls for punishment after the 2015 fight that left Colón with permanent injuries.
It remains unclear whether Williams removed the posts himself, whether Facebook acted due to the volume of abuse, or if another moderation or visibility issue caused the material to disappear. What is clear is that the page had become the one place where angry Colón supporters believed they could still find Williams online.
Williams has no widely visible active social media presence. That absence made the Facebook page more than an old profile. It became an archive of blame and, for many, the only remaining place to voice what they still feel about one of the most damaging nights in modern boxing.
Facebook Posts Vanish
For years, WBN reported how Williams’ page had attracted comments from Colón supporters who never accepted the way the Fairfax, Virginia fight unfolded.
The messages ranged from direct threats and demands for jail to revenge, or worse.
WBN first documented the abuse in 2021, when the comments section was already being used as a venting wall by fans furious at Williams’ role in the bout.
The hostility did not fade. In 2024, WBN reported further threats against Williams, including calls for punishment and accusations that he had never been properly held accountable.
The situation intensified into 2025. WBN later covered Williams being told to “heal in hell”, then reported a murder threat aimed at Williams and his family as the page remained visible but unused by Williams.
Now, after years as the obvious place for that hostility, the posts are no longer showing.
Only Portal Left
Whatever caused the disappearance, the result is the same: the only outlet Colón supporters had to reach Williams is no longer visible in the same way.
Williams has stayed out of view for years, retired from boxing in 2019, and has not rebuilt any public profile around the tragedy. WBN has previously attempted to track down those connected to Williams and reported how difficult he had become to find after the Colón fight.
With no interviews, no fresh statements, and no active platform from Williams, supporters of Colón gathered around the social media channel still linked to him.
Some of that anger crossed the line, turning into raw abuse from people who saw no punishment, no resolution, and no answer for what happened to a young fighter once tipped for world-title success.
Williams’ Regret
Williams’ remorse has also been part of the record.
WBN documented how Williams expressed sorrow in the aftermath, with the fighter saying he could not enjoy the victory and was worried about Colón as his condition became critical.
Williams said after the bout that there was never any intent to use dirty tactics and that the events of the fight were not born from maliciousness or hate. He also said he was praying for Colón and had been advised not to visit the hospital out of respect for the family’s privacy.
Despite WBN documenting his sorrow over the incident and an apology by Williams, the nature of Colón’s injuries leaves little leeway for his angry fans.
There is no compensation for them, whether Williams apologizes or not, that will erase those shots to the back of the head that proved so consequential.
The apology may exist, but it does not restore what was taken from Colón. It does not give Puerto Rico the world champion many believed he was destined to become. It does not undo the night that left a family devastated.
Fight That Never Healed
The October 2015 fight remains one of boxing’s deepest wounds.
Colón was a rising Puerto Rican prospect with charisma, talent, and the kind of upside that made people believe he was heading toward a world title. Instead, the bout with Williams became a nightmare of fouls, confusion, rabbit-punch accusations, and regulatory failure.
Williams had a point deducted for blows behind the head. Colón was docked for a low blow. Colón’s corner mistakenly believed the fight had ended after the ninth round and removed his gloves, leading to a disqualification defeat.
Shortly after, Colón collapsed and was diagnosed with a severe brain injury. He spent months in a coma and has required long-term care ever since.
The lasting damage suffered by Colón and his family cuts too deep for many to seemingly ever forgive how the fight transpired, with Puerto Rico robbed of a certain world champion and a family left devastated in the process.
That pain is why supporters have never fully let go. Williams’ regret does not cancel the punches. His absence from public view does not answer the damage, and the disappearance of old posts does not end the anger that built there.
Years of Blame
If the updates are gone for good, the public record has changed.
For years, the page showed what the Colón fight still did to people. It showed threats, revenge language, grief, and, at times, a level of abuse that had become disturbing in its own right.
That visible hostility may now be gone from Facebook, but the reason behind it remains.
Colón continues to live with the consequences of the fight. His family continues to carry the cost. Williams continues to be tied to the night that changed both men’s lives.
The Facebook posts may have vanished. The backlash over the Prichard Colón fight has not — it has simply lost its platform.
