    I honestly think Pac can take him. It won't be as easy as Marg because of the height/reach disadvantage, however, I don't think Williams has the chin to withstand some of Pac's shots.

    Williams, theres a stage when a man is just too big, 9inches in height and loads of reach is too much, Pacquaio will lose all his power punching up and Williams is fast with tons of workrate and heart

    I feel like Williams may be too big too fast and too agressive

    however Williams has leaky defense and this could be a Quintana repeat. Hell Cintron was clocking him in their fight

    Plus as we saw against Margo, once Antonio started landing Manny resisted the urge to trade with the big guy and ran around the ring stayed away but also did enough to win the rounds

    I feel Williams would have a higher out put then Margo (he did in their fight) and he is taller and has a better reach and unlike Margo who tried to learn to jab and be a distance fighter for one night Williams has already done this before

    50/50 but I dont really like Williams that much so I'm kinda leaning toward Manny

    I voted for Williams but your points are very good. I won't bet against Pac

    it sure would be an intresting fight and it would be my preference if Pac vs. Floyd doesnt happen.


    Pac's only 5'6 were as PWill is just under 6'3 what a freak of a match but id love it!

    size isn't everything. the point is the boxer's smartness and skill.

    Tougher fight than Marg but after seeing what PAC did to Tony I have to side slightly with PAC winning a UD! PW's problem will be the same as Tony's.....he likes to TRADE and got toe to toe. No one from 154 down can go toe to toe with PAC and NOT get punished. But at the end of the day you HAVE to take risks in order to beat Manny. It's really a hard situation for any pac opponents.

    At welterweight, Pac comfortably outboxes a drained Williams.

    At Jr Middle, Pac outboxes Williams in a close fight, he would not knock out or hurt Williams at this weight IMO.

    At middle, who knows? I'd say it's 50/50. Depends on how well Pac carries speed and power, but seeing as he hasn't fought there, we don't know.

    Williams wouldn't brawl with him. I think Williams takes a decision.
