If Margarito can beat Cotto down to his knees..Williams will do it easier.

the same paul williams who was being schooled by cintron for 3 rounds, I seriously doubt that he could beat cotto but he could make it interesting, Cotto easily by points

You mean the same Cotto that was beaten to the ground by Margarito?...the same Margarito that Williams beat?

well, when your talking about fighting williams, its basically about whether you can handle the workrate, the pace and the volume of punches coming at you. williams has always been found by his opponent. but at the same time his opponents usually wilt under all that pressure and pace and just get outhustled. that is what i meant about cotto. if cotto can use his jab and come behind it effectively, it will go a long way in not allowing williams to dictate the pace of the fight as he would like. if cotto just lets williams do his thing and only occassionally tosses that jab out there, he will get overwhelmed and outpointed just on sheer volume of punches.

the razor's stance, height and reach could damn sure give williams some trouble. again, its all about dictating the tempo of the fight which is best accomplished w/ a stiff jab constantly in williams face with something effective behind it. you can't play off williams or else you'll have 1000 punches thrown at you. and despite the fact that a small % will actually land, you still won't have that much time to breathe. come forward, be the aggressor, and keep a jab in his face and don't let williams get going. i honestly think the razor has the tools to beat williams if he can stick to the right game plan and not williams dictate what goes on.

Thanks for the thoughtful commentary. I am inclined to agree with 99% of it.

dont think williams could handle cottos body shot. cotto could handle wiliams output, he can outbox williams for 12 rounds

Not sure how some of you arrive at the conclusion Cotto can handle what Williams would give, I just don't see it. I've seen nothing from Cotto lately to make me believe he could win this fight.

He handled Margo's much better than Cotto did.:deal With that said that's not even a factor how will someone like Cotto with short arms get inside of Williams without getting busted up? Cotto will have to go through hell and back to get to Williams body and we all know he can't handle what Williams will be throwing at him. Cotto will get beat to a bloody pulp trying to fight Williams not to mention Arum wouldn't put Cotto within 1000 light years of the punisher.
