Paul Williams Beats Floyd Mayweather And Here's Why

[S.G.]

The problem is, you can never really predict how Mayweather will approach a fight. He revamps his whole approach specifically to suit the guy he'll have in front of him.

I think seeing the way Quintana and Martinez neutralised him to some degree via lateral movement gives Floyd a great starting point, all he needs to adopt after that is the willingness to sporadically engage and there we have P-Will in trouble. And we've seen that Mayweather is no push over even against someone as powerful and explosive as Mosley. Now, I know holding your own against a welterweight and holding your own against a middleweight are two different things altogether but I still don't think it's realistic to presume Williams will be able to bully Floyd.

Williams can get sloppy as it is, against Mayweather he'll look amateur at times. Add to that Floyd will cut his workrate down drastically and prevent him from landing more than twice in a burst, and I'm thinking Floyd wins. I mean, I could definitely see Williams winning at 154 or 160, but I just can't look past Mayweather. He's so well rounded that he can adapt to virtually any opponent.

To the TS, nice post. It was well thought out and I really got a kick out of that mongoose/cobra vid. Good stuff.

Outside of Floyd and Pac, Williams is my favorite fighter. I wasn't aware of Paul Williams until he beat Walter Mathhyse on HBO. Floyd on the other hand I've been following since 1997.

With that said, Williams-Mayweather is a true SUPER-FIGHT and immediatley reminds me of HEARNS-LEONARD.

Hopefully Williams can look impressive this weekend against Kermit. I wouldn't mind seeing Williams-Mosley at 147 on HBO. This would give Williams the proper exposure he needs so that Mayweather-Williams could be promoted as a true ppv superfight in 2011.

I think Williams activity level, reach and strength MIGHT be too much for Floyd, but on the other hand I think Floyd's speed, intelligence, defense, counters and accuracy may be too much for the Punisher to deal with.

GREAT FIGHT!

Lets hope the stars align and we get Williams-Mayweather next year.

To the Floyd fans lets not get crazy. Willaims is all wrong for Mayweather. I always been picking Will but Floyd is just too smart. How he wins I have literally no idea because this a fight he should lose but hes too smart and would find a way to win.

Good post.

Floyd's speed and countering will cut Williams punch output in half. I honestly don't think Williams' defense is any better than Diego Corrales' was (rip champ).

Lets not forget that if this fight happens it's happening at 147 and Williams will have to submit to random testing.

I honestly don't see anyone beating Mayweather at 147. He's a true welterweight now.

Very good post. And you know me I been saying Williams would beat him forever. Being Pauls Number 1 fan and all...lol.

BUT....

I changed my mind. Floyd is just too smart. I dont know how he would beat him but he would find a way.

So you jumped from Pwill's **** right on to Floyds?

When are you going to realise that you have no objectivity what so ever and you base your predictions on which fighter you like the most.

The Mongoose attacking the Cobra sealed it for me.

The Punisher by KO.

Yeah, I didn't want to go all Animal Planet, but it seemed appropriate

The video is one of my favourite. Here is my recent favourite though:

So yer. I think The Punisher kicks him in the head and KTFOs him. LMFAO.

Take a look at this video...



Cobras are known to have on of the deadliest venom in the snake kingdom. It is a very respected as a predator, but also as prey. But one creature who doesn't respect it is the mongoose. Why? The mongoose can tolerate the venom of a cobra which allows it to be relentless in its pursuit for a meal. Paul Williams (mongoose) would very much tolerate the venom Floyd Mayweather Jr (cobra) would be injecting. It is because of THIS that Williams beats Floyd. It is because of the lack of respect for Floyd's power that Williams beats Floyd. Floyd cannot outfight Williams. A SOUTHPAW Williams. Floyd's shoulder rolls, his pull counters, will not matter against someone that throws more than 4 punches at once and over 1000 in a fight.

This is why Williams/Mayweather will NEVER happen.

but floyd isn't a cobra... he's a gorilla-dog and gorilla-dogs beat mongooses.

anyways.... pwill will outwork floyd. floyd will land big shots, but he won't be able to hurt pwill and pwill won't be discouraged from punching... that's all pwill knows how to do... keep throwing punches. suckers think pwill will stop throwing punches... yea right. this is pwill philosophy 101 "when in doubt, keep punching".

Can the mongoose really tolerate the venom? I thought it just didn't get bitten due to its speed.
