I wish this fight would happen, great matchup for fireworks. Cotto can expose Williams with body assault but Williams poses a big problem with his high volume of punches that can overwhelm what some may call a war torn Cotto at this point in his career

Still wanting to see this

So what you want is tosee a 5'7" fighter overwhelmed by a 6'2" high volume puncher. That sounds very sadistic. If Cotto had very good head movement as part of his defence, and ability to get inside, then it would be a good fight. But he hasn't, and if Williams is half-way smart, he'll give him a beating. I don't like to see those kinds of fights. I like a good well balanced matchup.

I just saw Augustus-Ward again tonight on Youtube, I watch it every so often. One of the very best fights I have ever seen, from the very first second. And I've seen many. I recommend it. They were head to head for almost the whole fight, with not even a single clinch at all. I've never experienced that before-no clinches. Augustus was ahead 5-3 going into the 9th rd but went down from a beautifully placed Ward special, his liver punch. They scored it a 10-8 rd for Ward when it should have been a 9-9, Because he got up, and except for that KD won that round. And he won the 10th as well. Yet instead of a close win, or at least a draw, Ward got the decision. I can't say he din't deserve it, he put up a great fight, but was outpunched by 100 punches, and stunned more than a few times. Two great warriors who also had lots of skill, something rarely seen in a fight like that. Much better in my opinion than any Gatti-Ward fight, which were almost like movie fights (first you hit me, than I'll hit you, then you hit me....)

It was laughable to see that Augustus had 14-16 losses already, he fought like a champion.
