    Spence is far more skilled than Williams was, he would have boxed his ears off, Hearns was everything Williams should have been with that reach.

    Errol is much better. He'd also beatdown Sergio.

    Williams was 6”1, Spence is like 5”9, not much taller than an average welter.

    Spence is a big WW only by today’s standard. He is really average.

    It’s an even matchup where both guys can win.

    Sergio Martinez would whoop on Spence like he stole something.

    Williams outworks him from start to finish, The Punisher by dominant UD.

    This ^^^

    Unless Spence can hurt him, but this guy walked through welterweight punches like they were nothing for the most part... and could easily average over 100 punches a round. H2H at welter he was a monster.

    Spence has 4 votes, to Pauls 7.

    I'll be honest, while obviously Spence will make it somewhat competitive in there, I really dont see any basis for him winning this.

    Besides Mark, Id want to hear what someone is basing a Spence win on.

    Most of the attributes he uses to win, wont have an impact on Williams. And he's not going to be outboxing Williams on the backfoot the way Quintana did.

    Hes going to play right into Williams style, which will see him get outworked the majority of the rounds.

    Look at the midgets in the division. And I believe that Spence is listed as 5' 10".

    5'9 1/2. He's shorter than Cintron, Williams, Margarito, De La Hoya, Jones, Ennis, Forrest, etc.

    Williams lost to a B level southpaw at 147.
