    I agree with you, Margo was really starting to hurt Williams to the body.

    Cotto won't start so slow and will break Williams in half

    Williams, just too many advantages, and I know I already said this but his power is highly underrated.

    pw my #2 favorite but he aint ready for cotto...

    he leave his body way to open.. cotto will tear his torso up

    but at the same time as many punches as pw throw he might get him

    in the first 6 rounds i like pw in the last 6 i like cotto

    He's a freak...I wouldn't want Ricky to go anywhere near him.
     
  11. I don't know why people are all over Cotto's jock, **** he was lucky to get the decision against Mosley..:-(

    Williams at 6-1 would jab and hammer the short 5-7 Cotto at will, if Cotto finds a way to get inside Williams would just tie him up, Cotto is so easy to hit Williams would bust him up and win a wide UD..

    Every fight Cotto is in he takes a lot of punishment, and get's hit a lot, i hope he hangs on to his Money, unless he learns better defensive skills he will have a short career..:nono

    williams is not easy to hit??:huh williams D is worst than cotto's at least cotto holds his hands up...williams will get hurt to the body and im not sold on his chin.....and his jab is weak its like a flick instead of a jab and he is highly inaccurate

    This would be an interesting fight. I think Cotto takes the win but only just.

    PW wins this by keeping Cotto on the end of his reach, he's too tall for Cotto. I don't see Cotto being able to take 2 or 3 to give flurries to the body for more than 7 or 8 rounds without being damaged severely by that crashing right overhand of Paul Williams. I mean there is always the possibility of Cotto KO'ing PW but thats a two way street in a fight like this. Tall/long fighters are difficult for everyone period unless their style doesn't capitalize on their height and I believe Williams uses his reach and height to punish his opponents perfectly. He would win by tko in the late rounds or by a fairly close decision.
