    Flicker jab?

    How about backhanded arm punches? This guy makes Calzaghe look like he has clinical technique.

    Footwork? He is off balance more often than not.


    Skills? How about those hitches in his punch delivery?



    You want a skilled technician, follow Mayweather. Williams is unorthodox, awkward, and unathletic.

      Two people have mentioned skin color. One seemed to lack any sense that this would be a very bad answer.


      I am hoping that's not the answer.



      Maybe the Margarito answer is a better one?

          It's because Williams beat Margarito and Mayweather fans get tired of hearing how Mayweather is scared of Margarito. They'll likely find someone else to back if Williams ever trashes Mayweather.

            While i agree that Williams is not that great a boxing technicians and could be outboxed even by smaller fighters. I do think he has good athleticism, if he did not he would be terrible.

              They don't have similar styles. They don't have similar skills. They don't have similar backgrounds.


              I just can't figure out why suddenly the Floydboys are hyping Williams.

              Can anyone think of a reason?
              They have a similar swagger? Theyr both big pimpin? Who knows.

                Gee, I don't know. I guess when we became Floyd fans, we should've signed a contract stating that we couldn't root for Williams, because Margs might have to fight Williams again lol. We as Floyd fans also want Williams to do our dirty work. Floyd in our opinion just doesn't have heart. We think Williams has heart. We thought about becoming Margs fans, but he lost 5 times, and we thought about becoming Cotto fans, but we knew that he had never been in a true fight. So we decided to ride with Williams. He lost, but he got revenge...something Margs and Cotto have yet to accomplish. Anyway, is it that apparent that we Floyd fans are riding with Williams? Damn, I'm going to have to change my costume lol.
