    I'd like to see it. I believe it could be tough for Williams to make the weight at 147, and Clottey might possibly capitalize on that. At 154, Williams would work himself to a wide UD.

      Credit to Clottey for wanting to fight the best out there.

      He loses to Williams though, His style is all wrong for him.

          Props to Clottey if he secures this fight. I can't see how he wins it, but it should be entertaining and depending on how hard it is for Paul to still make 147, pretty competitive.

            What a guy, props to him for calling Paul Williams out, but as most of the post on this thread I beleive that Paul will beat him also.

            However i would give him a better chance, not saying he'll win, but a Clottey-Mosley fight will be a good one and you can even havi in in September because Mosley is available and at this point with Cotto-Pacman being negociated and PBF-JMM postponed, Mosley doesn't have many options.

            Clottey-Mosley will be a great fight.

              I agree with you; Clottey is not the guy for Paul, he got good defense, but look at what happenned to one of the best defenses out there? you need a boxer that will do a similar strategy like quintana, that is the only way to get williams out of the way, if not you are going to look ****** and get KOed in the first round!!!

                Paul Williams is very open to the body and Clottey can hurt you attackin the body. I wouldnt be surprised if Clottey could win this by KO with body shot combinations. If it goes to decision though Williams will win he is just too busy for Clottey

                  Williams is JUST like Margarito, just a bit taller, if Clottey was beating Margarito until he bruised his Arm, then obviously he has a chance vs P.Will, i do believe that P.Will is not a strong man, he is just a flush shot fighter with an incredible height and reach. Clottey has the same Wright style but lets not forget that he IS younger and his defense is a bit tighter @ this stage, plus Wright had a long layoff which lead to the ugly lost to Williams. Lets not put Williams as a God or Superman, i believe Clottey can beat him.

                    Mosley doen't want to fight Clottey.

                    Though they both Clinch alot when exhausted, even though he didnt much in the Cotto fight, Cotto didnt let him anyway, example: the slam lol

                      Clottey has an economic offense to begin with. And Williams would make Clottey's offense even more economic. Clottey fights all comers though. Credit to him for that.
