Anyone who picked Williams should be ashamed of themselves. Paul's skill level was WAAAAAAY below Floyd's. My friend used to tell me about Williams before I saw him fight. I finally saw him and was not impressed at all. He was sloppy as hell. He was good but nowhere near great or elite. I was going for him in the Martinez rematch but I think Martinez looked at that first fight like how did I even let this be close. Any fighter that Floyd didn't fight is the one that could have beat him. Lol. I can't any of your boxing opinions seriously.

If Floyd hadn't ducked Paul Williams, what would have been the result?

I picked P.Williams TKO/KO but in reality it would of been P.Williams UD. P.Williams workrate was brutal at times. I remember when him and Margarito went at it. Didn't one of them set a compubox record? Fraud Jr. couldn't in any way keep of with the workrate and just based off activity, P.Williams would bank rounds all night. Although who knows, he could of snuck in a bomb that maybe would of been lights out for Jr.

All these people are citing Williams wins because of work rate, size and chin. If those are your best assets as a world class fighter you will have serious problems against a skilled technician like a Floyd Mayweather.
Trust me man, I'm a big Floyd fan, but I'm just stating the truth. Everyone has a match.

Look at what Quintana did to that boy in their first fight. It was easy work for him. He danced in and out of range, countered his wild looping punches that land at a 20% rate, countered him when he bent down to over extend himself and worked him on the inside. Floyd would have a field day with this dude.
Castillo and De La Hoya don't make nearly the number of mistakes or are nearly as sloppy and careless as Paul Williams. Nor are they wide the **** open for flush counters in return. You just can't miss him.
Lara landed more punches on Williams with half the output. Work rate doesn't mean ****. Clean punches do.Last edited by -PBP-; 02-13-2013, 12:39 PM.
