It would be a tough fight for both.

Who ever said Williams would kill May is delirious. Floyd Schools him for 12 and the easy UD. Williams is the most hyped fighter in the bizz. He hastn proved anything. He has a good win beating Margs and hasnt done anything else. He brings no money and a possible loss cause of his size. I hope someone takes this punk on and knocks him back to mediocrity where he belongs.

What if Paul came in with the intention to outbox Floyd. Fighting like a tall man, keeping his distance and popin 100 punches per round...what then? I'm talking, the way he beat Margarito

You must understand that people downplay floyd greatness allot . because he is a boxer who fights in 100% motion and rtyhm

Mayweather's defense

The Key to Mayweather's defense is the fact that he is always moving as well as the rhythm,speed and smoothness of his movements, this is what makes this defense effective.

All the while his opponent is punching.
Floyd is

• rolling,
• slipping,
• pivoting at the waist,
• feinting,
• bobbing and weaving,
• constantly displaying various ‘modes’ of movement .

The rhythm of the rolling is very important because most opponents alternate their punches in a very predictable way, only occasionally doubling up with the same hand in the middle of flurries.



The name of the game is not aggressiveness, it is 'effective aggressiveness'.

Most of Floyd's Opponents punches get deflected and do not do much damage. Also use up a lot of energy in the process.
It is tiring and frustrating to punch at a target that constantly making you miss.

Floyd's sense of the flow of a fight is fantastic.

Staying 'in the pocket',

When Floyd stands 'in the pocket', meaning that Mayweather was so close to His Opponent that they can not get the proper leverage on their punches.
There is an optimum distance that most fighters need to execute effectively.
and floyd does not let a fighter ever get that distance to tee of on him.


Either they are to close or they are to far.!!!



Paul Williams is simply not on Mayweather level. it would be Diego Corralles all over again.

If you look how Mitchell and Quintana gave williams all type all of hell when they box him and move.. you would understand that Williams would have more trouble with floyd then Floyd with williams...Even with all of williams Physical advan.

to be quite honest I agree. I don't think Williams would convincingly win a single round. Too slow, too wide, and if he is throwing straights the whole fight his lack of speed would only be of disadvantage. Floyd would land half of his punches while Williams would land way, way less.

Paul Williams is simply not on Mayweather level. it would be Diego Corralles all over again.

I think this is the first thing I agree with you on. I don't think he'd get KD as many times, but how the fight progressed... I think it would be a repeat.

[UnDeniable]

Williams has the physical advantages

But does he have the mental advantages, the boxing brain etc to beat Floyd

I don't think Williams is smart or deceptive enough to beat Floyd

Paul still looks like a work in progress, he needs to use his height

[Sin City]

thinking about it.. Floyd might have this.
not sure though since I don't believe Floyd has ever fought a dude of that gigantic size.

[-EX-]

floyd makes williams look very, very silly.

williams is a combinations, rhythm fighter. he wont be able to get it against floyd.

Agreed. And this fight aint gonna happen. Of all the welters Paul would be the last Floyd would fight. No one wants to fight a grasshopper or preying mantis...

[AztecWanker]

Mayweather schools Williams. Paul has crappy defense, does not use his reach advantage and will have trouble all night finding Floyd.
