[TheSurgeonMDMPH]

I have to admit, this post made me laugh.

yup! hillarious but oh so true!

come on man, quintana had a good gameplan, but williams OVERLOOKED him the first time, didn't take him seriously, and thought he'd just walk in there and get an easy W. in boxing, you can lose to anybody, if you don't prepare well.....

and winky was/is TOP 3 defensive fighters in the game, and look at what happened to him.....i have NEVER seen winky so lumped up in my life! he blocked MOST of the punches, but he himself admitted that they came from everywhere, and he wasn't able to block all of them.

i'm not saying williams "destroys" cotto......i think it'll be a great fight for the most part. i just think down the stretch williams advantages take over, and he stops cotto late. he hurts cotto, before cotto hurts him.

You see i dont agre, but is a fair statement, unly the rest of this idiots saying Willaims Blows Cotto out of the water.

I guarantee you that if this fights happends adn Cotto gets to Williams ribs, Williams will be stoped!!!!!!!!

If paul williams drops down to WW he will be a ****ing skeleton... if he ever goes down to WW again if he fights one of the top dogs he will lose, losing ten pounds off the frame he has now will be just unhealthy

Correct me if i'm wrong but didn't you say Winky will beat Paul? If not then,my bad i'm probably confusing you with some other poster.

WTF? Cotto has been down once in a pull down!!!!!!

My bad! I meant rocked but always came back to win the fight. But back to my point, how has the Margarito "illegal" (my opinion, of course) beating affected him?

I think Williams would UD Cotto or stop him late.

But people are getting crazy. If they're leaning on eachother, you can bet your ass Cotto will do more work on the inside than Winky did.

Cotto would give him more angles than Winky did too. I honestly think Paul is a HORRIBLE style matchup for Winky. Winky comes forward and picks off punches, but he couldn't do that with Paul throwing 1,000 punches. He does nothing to cut workrate down cause he just comes forward.

There are variables that people just refuse to see, they just see Paul beat the **** outta Winky and think he'll literally kill Cotto.

It would be a competitive fight, but I think Williams would break Cotto down. Cotto would do some real good work though, it's easy to get inside on Williams, and Cotto is a better inside fighter than anyone Paul has faced.

Yeah i said winky would win a wide UD.... why did i say that? Cause im a williams hater and no matter who p will fights I will say he is gonna lose

I dunno man...In the first Quintana fight Paul at times looked like he was on the verge of being knocked down or stopped. With Cotto being stronger and quicker than Quintana if hes able to sneak in like that and let off some power shots to the head and body it wont go well at all for PW..And lets not forget PW gets cut easily and it remains to be seen if he has a chin like Margarito....Still some ways to go for PW in my opinion.

We hace to see, the Clottey fight will be a very good gauge for it.

besating Bum ass jennings didnt prove ****. It was just a comeback fight.

I guess it took alittle bit from him, to tell you the truth, but we have to see!!!

re-post.

Look at the punch output of Margarito against Cotto. He thrown 987 punches. 647 of those punches were power punches. 237 of those power punches were landed. Compared to Cotto's 395 power punches thrown and 179 landed.

Williams out punched Margarito in their fight, almost doubling the output. Margarito threw 654 punches that night. Williams almost doubled that with 1256 punches the entire night. Throwing an average of 105 punches a round.

Double Margarito's output on Cotto. That would be Williams output on Cotto (If we go by numbers). 1974 punches would be Williams output on Cotto. Williams also had a 205-165 edge in power connects against Margarito, nearly doubling Margarito in that catagory as well. Double Margarito's power output on Cotto..... 474! That is the 5th ring of hell.

Just by the numbers. The analysis of Williams -> Margarito -> Cotto. Is near perfect because Williams and Margarito are almost completely identical.



Cotto just cant handle that kind of assault. Its his weakness. He cant fight well against the relentless attack of swarmers with reach, power, an awkward style and a good chin. Then add Paul Williams' southpaw brawl.... cotto is in for hell.

I used to think Cotto would win this but I've changed my mind. Williams would win, he's just too big for Cotto and too long for Cotto.
