        It's hard to say, we'll have to wait and see.

          How about Cotto – Williams. I thought Cotto was body shot king; he won’t dare to fight Williams. Williams stops Cotto in 6 rounds

            Williams has the tools to be a big star in boxing but unlike Hearns who made it big with no personality I doubt Williams will ever be anything close to even a Vargas type popularity.

                That was accumulated punishment to the body. Williams is all around tough. Chin is granite, and his body is durable. He didn't bowl over from a body punch until about round 10 or 11 and Marg was tagging that body the whole fight. It was ignored much like his body work against Cotto by the announcers. I like how subtle it appears to folks though, you don't realize what's going on until all of a sudden the man in front of Tony slows down and is clearly ****** up.

                    PWill's slender body would crumble under a well executed onslaught. He'd be pissing blood for weeks. He just hasn't been matched up against a fighter who could take advantage.
