Fact or Fiction: Paul Williams Would Have Beaten Mayweather at 147

[Larry the boss]

no his defense is non existent and his punches are wide and sloppy

I alway thought the only fighter that could have beaten Mayweather at around 2007-2009 was williams, But looking back now that seem like i might have jumped to an early conclusion.

Yes. He very well could have beaten Floyd at 147. If Paul throws his jab, it's going to find Floyd because of his reach. Even if he does miss, Paul will throw another 5 punches when Floyd decides to counter. With proper ring footwork and a solid jab, Williams would outpoint Mayweather to a debatable decision win. The only chance Floyd had of beating prime Paul Williams is by knocking him out.

Did you read the first post or not? It says Prime Williams and it mentions the Margarito fight.

If you saw the Margarito fight then you know what jab were talking about.
