      lets also not forget Mosley isn't the same Mosley he was back then...
      Yea, mosley does have a problem with taller fighters, when they use their jab. I think Williams doesn't use the jab nearly as much as he should and he goes to brawl way too many times, which would cost him against Mosley.

        I will sympathize a bit wit Paul, he hasn't fought nobody simply because he's not a draw. I'm sure he'd be willig to fight anyone regardless if he was the biggest draw or not

          What about William's workrate, how does Mosley deal with that? The current Mosley throws 600 punches per fight, that is almost half of what Williams throws, even Margarito throws 1000 punches per fight and has more power at Welterweight than Mosley. Obviously Sugar's speed would be the main asset but what use it when its being timed? Will Mosley be able to even reach a guy who is 6 inches taller? I know Williams can with that "More than Wladimir Klitschko's reach" 84 inchs..

            Ok Torres and Malignaggi shouldn't even be there, I am only going to add the welterweights:

            Urkal
            Judah
            Quintana
            Mosley

            Who does Williams lose to from this list?

                Well, anyone would have a problem with that work rate, but like I said, the way I see this fight going is, Williams like always, will get close to Mosley and start letting lose and exchanging, but I think Mosley would get the better of it, I think it would go to a decision, but because of his work rate, like I said before, it could really go either way.

                  I think Floyd will fight Cotto after he has 1 or 2 more fights to maximize the event and with a victory surpass Roy Jones to solidify his place as the greatest all time p4p.

                    I think Paul beats any of those guys. I'm a big Mosley fan. That being said I think it's a bad match-up for him.

                      Mosley would, the main thing about Paul is that they're leaning on his dominant physical features in this weight class. I'm confident that if Paul would fight an experienced, boxing genious who could adapt he'd be exposed for what he really is: A physically dominant, but technically lacking boxer. Williams just throws, he doesn't even bother setting things up or looking for openings. The trouble with a fighter like Williams is that he's wide open to be countered, it just takes someone with skill to effectively counter his continuous assault
