    Williams will win IMO..

    Look, Mayweather is great, and he can counter punch. But he HATES pressure. Ricky Hatton won rounds against him by pure pressure. Jose Luis Castillo pressured the hell out of him. Chavez did the same thing. If Williams can make Mayweather fight, and continually throw 100+ punches, he can take it. Williams has gotten hit before; that doesnt mean anything to me at all in this fight...

      well thats a tricky question because to this day I beleive that Floyd-Oscar was more of a mental thing for Floyd. At that time he was a super small WW that only came into the ring at 146 pounds for fights and Oscar had fought at MW & just decapitated a very durable & strong Mayorga at 154.

      At the same time you got Floyd's dad in his ear the whole time warning him about getting caught with an Oscar hook because it might knock him out. All those things I think made Floyd very tenative & hesitant. He thought that maybe the weight would be too much for him and Oscar may be too strong & powerful for him.

      Ive always said that that if Floyd wouldve had that rematch then he wouldnt have had any fear, wouldnt have held back at all, and wouldve dominated Oscar the 2nd time around. That version of Floyd to me or a normal version of Floyd beats Williams. Either way, I dont see Floyd having any worries now. He's still not the biggest guy in the world but he's a good amount bigger & stronger then he was going into that Oscar fight

        The difference between PW an those guys are that PW's when countered resets himself so Floyd would counter and move away it would be a lop sided fight, second Castillo lost both fights tho u could say floyd lost the first fight but he was injured that fight the 2nd fight was a easy victory for floyd, Hatton got KO'd after a while, Pressure fighters are what Floyd wants because it make it easy for him to counter and move away.

          I think Floyd wins a wide 9 rounds to 3 or 10 rounds to 2 decision, while Manny stops him around the 10th or 11th round after a Margarito-type of beat down.

          I've always felt like that. I personally feel Williams is the same fighter, and tomorrow would prove that, but I don't think he ever had the talents/ability to fvkk with Floyd or Manny.
