    Mayweather is a special fighter.

    It's a very good competitive fight.

    Make it happen.

    Williams certainly has more chance than most because of that long jab and combinations, the 2 things that Mayweather's defence struggles with most.

    I think it is a very difficult fight for either of the fighters.

    But lets not get ahead of ourselves Quintana outfoxed Williams and he isnt half the fighter that Floyd Joy is.

    I would like to see the fight though.

    back then i always thought that william's height and workrate would trouble floyd but as great as floyd is, he would find a way to win a decision that is even before he fought quintana. now i would stick to my opinion that floyd could decision williams even on both of their best night. a narrow one maybe.

    Exactly. The fact that Quintana was able to outbox Williams makes it surprising that people don't think the master boxer in Floyd could do it even better. Williams isn't a "smart" fighter, he's just very active, throws a lot of punches on stationary targets, and leans in with his punches. He's a good fighter with excellent physical attributes and tremendous stamina, but Floyd would keep moving and making Williams miss, landing sharp counters.

    Me.
    It would be a very equal fight but I'd slightly favor Mayweather.

    I've learnt the lesson of underestimating Floyd before when he whipped my boy Hatton's arse.

    I won't make the same mistake again. :smile
