    If williams fought a little more with a jab and defense he would win, but since he doesnt its easy to say he loses but he still has a size advantage and throws a lot of punches therefore it might be to much. Floyd doesnt ko him so he has to outland him. I give paul williams a decent shot of winning this fight, even now at 154. but we will never know.

    Some one with the will to stay on Plan A and drive it home.

    Once Floyd has you on the go you end up waving your hands around like your using invisible nun-chucks.

    A Leonard or Hearns style. Jab and hard combination puncher. Hearns would demolish Floyd at 147. That fight wouldn't go 3

    It is really not style but skills and talent.

    You need some one with decent speed and pop. But more importantly decent boxing IQ.

    Being a southpaw also helps considerably. Being an orthodox come forward jab-right cross is not going to cut it.

    how the hell did he duck Cotto? At what point was he ever given a chance by Arum to fight Cotto?

    Margarito hadnt done shyt but you openly heard Arum's offers to fight Floyd....

    At hat point did Cotto or Arum EVER offer anything? NEVER they only ran their mouths! If thats what you consider trying to get a fight then you must give Floyd credit for the opponents he called out when he was comming up and that included a YOUNGER Oscar a Younger Mosley and even Hamed....do you give him credit for those? Im sure you dont so stop with the ducked Cotto bullshyt......they never wanted to put Cotto within a mile radius of Floyd before Pac showed up Cotto was his cash cow no way was he going to throw him in there to get his whooped anyway. I give him props for openly seeking a fight for Margo though.

    Pac and him havent happened over random blood testing period....Pac has not agreed to shyt but only runs his mouth and you chumps gobble it up.

    His last statement you guys are hanging on to so much is utter bullshyt, now all of a sudden he can take tests between rounds? WTF? If he felt it was that easy how the fukk was the first 14 day offer not a good one? Also if its that easy the second go round he shouldnt even have asked for the 14 days anyway he should have just been like lets do it no cut-offs.

    Condensed time line:

    1. 14 days he couldnt do

    2. floyd says no more cut offs

    3. Pac ok 14 days good

    4. Did you not just hear me no cut offs.....im on vaccation now, no urge

    5. Pac, i'll take the test between rounds

    Fans: HUH?!? If its that easy then WTF was the first 2 negotiations about?

    6. Floyd goes ape shyt over a messy house, gave a gate guard the touch of death.....court hearings in the air and OH Roger's court date in the air....Floyd Sr. falling very ill...Mayweathers look to be falling apart...literally.

    7. Pac vs Mosley

    Fans: WTF!?
