    Firstly, it depends on the Williams that shows up (and maybe even the Cotto that shows up), but I would love to see this fight nonetheless. Stylistically, it more so appears that Cotto would lose, unless he fights a nearly perfect fight, never gets caught up in exchanges and just boxes. Again, it's not impossible, but we can predetermine a Cotto loss on paper merely from watching the Margarito fight, who Williams resembles in many ways....but this is still boxing and this sport is often less predetermined than it appears - I would LOVE this fight.

    didn't know williams planned on using plaster o' paris?

      Would be a great sendoff fight for both 2-3 fights from now. Could be a crossroads clash or a meaningful one. Cotto wins though.

        A tall, pressure, volume fighter with excellent stamina at 154? Good night, Miguelito.

          Plain and simple if this would have always been such an easy fight for Cotto he'd have made it years ago. Truth is PW is an easy fight for no one. I don't think Cotto could win because he doesn't have the power to stop Williams from coming forward and Cotto is just as easy to hit as Williams is.

              this is an outstanding fight that I REALLY hope happens.

              for some reason I dont see it happening however, and Williams isnt one to duck top competition.

                I don't see it happening b/c Manny Steward is Cotto's chief second now. Steward has made a living out of these tall fighters that have a pitcher's advantage sitting on top of a raised mound...latest pupil being Chad Dawson. Even though the blueprint has been set by Quintana/Martinez/Lara, I don't see Cotto being as effective with Williams. Manny S. knows this as the Margo, Bundradge or JCC Jr. fights seem to be a better risk/reward scenario for Cotto, the latter of which has been laboring punches in his last two fights with Yuri & Ricardo....just not fluid anymore at 54 due to Cheato and Pac's beating at 47 & 45 respectively.

                      Williams is tall but he fights like he is 5'8. Cotto is too good on offense and even at 154 he has more power than Williams who is a pitty pat fighter. Cotto's jab and left hook to the body and chin would land at will. Paul's face would be a bloody mess by the 8th round.

                      Cotto wins by KO in the 10th.
