    i did not mean it as a literal comparison.... every great fighter had a guy thats just all wrong for them... forrest/shane, norton/ali, bowe/holy, tarver/RJ, barkley/hearns.... i think williams is that guy for floyd.... not becuase williams is the best WW, just because he matches up well with floyd physically and with his style... on the flip side i think cintron is the man to give williams a nightmare...

      The thing about Paul would not only the size differential. It's that he sticks to his gameplan of a high punch out out. He's not going to stop throwing all of a sudden becuase Mayweather is good defensively. If Oscar didn't have those lapses of where he didn't throw anything against Mayweather and stared at him he could have gotten a decision. And I would say Paul's handspeed is exceptional for his height.

          well at each fight fighters change there style abit.

          see it as a chess match. i predicting this fighter is going to come right after me so i train acordingly and the other fighter does the same but if there was an element of suprise or miss calculation then it all break down in the fight.

          If Williams miss calculated Floyd chin and speed he would try to hit less punch and punch more powerful punch. and If Floyd miss calculate Williams rang with his speed it will be hard for him to get inside.

          anyway a tall southpaw is very hard to fight because for one thing i am a abit tall southpaw and i give alot of trouble to people who i sparring with e****ally when i put my right hand forward. so I know what it like to fight like Tarver or Williams

            Floyd will never step foot in the ring with Williams.

            Bank on it.

            Never.

                  Cotto and Mosley IMO would finish Williams or hurt him numerous number of times in 12 rounds. They have the handspeed and Mosley has the footwork to catch him. I think Cotto will take Williams' punches just to return his own. Floyd IMO would have to block all of Paul's shots and land clean shots to win rounds or otherwise try and KO or TKO.

                  Cotto, Mosley, and Floyd are more skilled than Margarito and won't start late like he did.

                  Let's see how much longer Williams can make 147.

                      3. Williams out-put will go against him. PBF is too slick.
                      4. Regarding height: didnt save Diego.
                      5. Williams likes to get low...too low for my taste. I guy his size should never have to bob & weave against considerably smaller opposition...Williams does it often.

                      I'm not saying Williams could never beat Floyd...just not right now. I'de like to see 2 more fights from Paul before he goes for PBF...and considering the lay of politrix @ this moment I'de say thats right about when he'll meet PBF.

                      The way Paul started against Margy was new. He never throws w/that much authority and showed me how he looks whilst doing it. He looked crisp. If he can keep up that pace of hard shots theres no competition for him. A little less out-put and a little more punch-put and Williams is the total package.

                      He needs a sig punch.


                      Espesially Reason #1!

                      Yeah OK - Good one!
                      Just because "we" haven't seen enough of him...



                      Williams is too big and too busy for Mayweather to deal with.. PBF will NEVER fight him.

                      Mayweather nutguggers, deal with it.
