    This would be awesome. While Pacquiao fights a gatekeeper in Texas, we could still get a championship level fight in Las Vegas!

    If you asked me before the Sergio fight, I would say that P.Will would beat Floyd. After seeing Martinez/Williams, I'm leaning to Floyd.

    P-Dub's activity level seems to have dropped. Maybe it was the southpaw stance, or maybe he wasn't 'up' for Sergio after the Pavlik mess. But I expected more activity from him. Also, he was troubled by handspeed. And PBF would get hit less than SM did.

    Pacquaio fans aren't knowledgeable enough to discuss other fighters. Betcha 90% of them haven't even seen Clottey or Williams fight.

      They only know Pac..they dont even post in Donaire threads or know who Pancho Villa was.

      Floyd will have to fight the perfect fight to beatWilliams.

      Its win-win for both.

      If Williams loses he can go to 160 and fight Sturm or Pavlik/

      If Floyd loses he lost it to guy he was suppose to lose to.

          Remember though, Martinez is 5'11 and has a 76 reach. Mayweather 5'8 has a 72 reach. Also Paul was hurt many times against Martinez, against Mayweather Paul will fight strong from start to finish. I'm still leaning towards Paul. I give Mayweather a better shot at beating Martinez then Paul.

            I can't stand his articles. So incoherent at times and his choices of words are borderline ******ed.

                If that fight were to happen,Floyd PPV would definitely blow Pac PPV away by a mile.Paul is the Total opposite of Clottey and is much tougher.He`s Much Taller,Rangier,MUCH Busier,and a way harder puncher.

                That would be a very risky move on his part but he would earn alot of respect win or lose.

                  I love both fighters.

                  Williams throws to many punches for Floyd. He can also match him in stamina and has a great chin. Pauls jab wil;l touch Floyd...Paul triples his jab at times and that will certainly throw him off his rhtym and make Floyd 'reset".

                  Floyd is not a 5-11 left hander who lets his hands go.

                  Floyd is defensive minded and a counter puncher.

                  Floyd likes to keep his distance...Wiliams jabs his ass to hell.

                  Williams will be on him from the opening bell.

                  Bad style match up.

                  Williams TKO...10th...ref or corner stoppage.

                    In truth, I would like to see Floyd fight Kelly Pavlik. No catchweight.

                    ...but Arum wouldn't let Kelly get clowned like that.

                      Paul U.D 7-5 type. A hurt Floyd can shell up very well.
