    Probably the most honest and accurate assessment.

    I give Margo 40%, Cotto 30%.
    I give Santos and Martinez both 50%.
    And right now, of course KP and AA would be favored heavily.

    SO what you're saying is Williams can't beat anyone from 147-160. THe bum should just retire.

    Exactly! He should just go away so [you know who] can continue his lovefest with the media and walk around with his cheap shades and mullet like a ****ing country rock star and not have to worry about getting called out and embarrassed (again)...

    • Margarito
    • Pavlik
    • Abraham
    • Wright
    • Cotto
    • Possibly Berto
    Williams is good but margarito almost stopped him late when they fought. If they fought again, I believe AM would be busy earlier and stop him. William's height at 160 is nothing special. His height and reach are what made hime so effective at 147 but againt the top tier of the middleweight division, I think he gets stopped. Especially if he fights the likes of Pavlik and Abraham. At 168 he's nothing special at all size wise so he needs to get that notion out of his head. Still, I have a lot of respect for Williams and his willingness to excite and take chances. I'm a fan but just don"t think he is elite at 160....I alos don"t think Margarito is scared of him like some say...just think Margarito is taking a page out of Floyd's book and trying to get top dollar for minimal risk.

    Cotto
    Berto
    Santos
    Dzindziruk
    Kirkland
    Pavlik
    Sturm
    Abraham
    Sylvester
    Winky (dont know what weight class he is these days)

    -Margarito has a good chance but, he's a late starter
    -De La Hoya has a good chance as well but, who knows these days

    probabbly some more guys @ 154 and 160 but i'm not familiar with them all

    At 147 I think Margarito, Clottey, and perhaps even Cintron can beat him. I'm not saying that they will, but its possible.

    At 154 I think Martinez, Dzindziruk (which will be interesting), Kirkland, and Angulo match up well against him. I even think DLH could take him and give him a boxing lesson depending on how much he's got left in the tank.

    I really have a hard time seeing PW be competitive with the top fighters at 160.

    Ya, Williams was almost stopped late winning the 12th round dominantly.

    Martinez is probably be the most problematic challenge for PTP at 154 but lets not forget he was overwhelmed and koed by Margarito. PTP is quite capable of emulating a similar performance and scoring a ko himself. It would be a great fight and I'd love to see it get made.
