How can somone who got outboxed by Quintana beat Pacquiao/Mayweather?

[immortal tech]

Williams is amazingly overrated on the internet. His fans claim the 1st fight with Quintana was a fluke but whats more a fluke - a 1st round KO or a 12 round schooling? The fact that Sergio also outboxed him shows it was no fluke.

true he is way overrated specially at welterweight but nobody wanted to fight the guy and kill the myth. I would love for Floyd to fight him at 147

I used to always say Williams.

But I have to go with Floyd. Hes just too smart,

i dont know who i would take in this one i could see mayweather being too sharp for williams and picking him apart in a more dominant version of what quintana did to him in the first fight but then i think about how williams would more then likely eat those punches and fire 8-10 back in return and then i could see williams outworking him to a ud or split dec. great fight if pac mayweather doesnt happen this fight or a fight with martinez would be great replacements. also now that mayweather has named martinez as a possible opponent the idea that williams doesnt have a big enough name to fight floyd is not a good excuse from team mayweather.

Nothing against Quintana, but both Pacquiao and Mayweather are faster and more comfortable at 147 than Paul Williams will ever be. Why do people over-rate Pauls existence at Welterweight?




Waste off time, Pac-May should fight each other, Paul is fools gold...at 147 anyway

pwill's height and reach will be a problem for both pac and pbf. pwill's volume punching will out point floyd. pac is just too small.

A lot of good posts here already on this subject. Williams learnt from the first fight and won the 2nd one clearly. He is much more experienced now due to that fight with Quintana.

I personally like P. Williams since he comes to fight every time. What I mean is, depending on his opponent of course, Williams makes exciting fights!

There was no fluke about it-Both Carlos and Sergio fought Williams in similar fashion.Even the commentators had mentioned that Sergio fought just like Quintana...weird that people don't understand this...I also believe Quintana and Sergio are both southpaws (so is Williams),which suggests that maybe Williams has problems fighting people who are similar stance.To his credit,he avenged his loss,but I believe Sergio did enough to win...good close fight.

Oh, I would pick P Williams over both Pacman and Floyd.

Pacman is way too small.

I can also see P. Williams being able to hit Floyd a lot more easier and often than Floyd's usual cast of "fill-in-the-blank"

Floyd would smoke Williams.

If they ever fought i imagine Floyd would fight on the inside and box in the pocket. I dont see Williams long rangy arms doing much besides rolling off the shoulders.

Not really....Paul Williams,though he is very tall and has a long arm span,tends to give up his reach and height to fight close-up.He doesn't utilize 2 out of the 3 best assets he has. His volume could either cause his opponents problems,or give them counter-punching opportunities.
Floyd would have an easier time than Manny would,based on styles.

Why can someone who lost to Singsurat and Torrecampo beat Floyd?


Styles makes fights. Nothing else. I like how you leave out that he KO'd Quintana in ONE round my friend.

LOL good reply. I was gonna say same thing
