2001 Kostya Tszyu vs 2008 Paul Williams At 147lb

Kosta winning this poll by a landslide......Interesting

Williams is overrated but probably wins on size and workrate.

Williams is a bad style match-up for KT in terms of the pressure he brings but he is ridiculously easy to hit so i could see him getting KTFO!

Nope no chance. Kosta would destroy Paul and knock him out, im not even joking.

LOL, Paul kills him and I'm a massive KT fan. Kostya was a 140 pounder, Paul would have just been way too big.

Williams is overreated. Kotsa wouldnt surprise me at all if he were to brutally stop Williams. The man doesnt fight tall, and has worse defense than Margacheato

Williams does apply a lot of pressure but we're talking about a 2001 Tszyu, not the 2005 Tszyu who had barely fought in 2 years who fought Ricky Hatton. Williams is slightly overrated imo by the hardcore fans, I'm a big fan of his because of his entertaining volume punching style but his defence is very poor for a top class fighter and I see Tszyu landing big counter-rights all night and possibly stopping him late on.

Paul Williams is fighting juniorwelters now WTF?

Michael Spinks had never fought at HW before, but he still beat ATG HW Larry Holmes....Just sayin. :) Yeah, but Paul has a nightmare style for Tszyu. I know this is a different Kostya we're talking about, but he got tired from Ricky Hatton's brand of pressure. Now imagine Paul Williams constant power punches from ridiculous angles against a fighter with already questionable heart.

Michael Spinks had never fought at HW before, but he still beat ATG HW Larry Holmes....Just sayin. :) Williams applies too much pressure for him its a bad style matchup.

It is kinda a bad style match up for Tsyzu cos Williams puts on a lot of pressure. But Williams is just so wide open to counter right hands so I can see him getting KTFO.

Kosta never fought at WW. Paul smothers his ass.

Paul smothers him. Kostya never fought at welterweight and I don't know that his incredible power would be quite the same. Paul eats some big shots, but Kostya would fatigue at that ridiculous pace.
