    I'm assuming we mean just 147ers so

    Williams has Toni's number
    Mayweather is good enough and quick enough to hit and run his way to a UD

    Minto obviously.

    But for WW I'd go with big Paul Williams but that's only about 60/40.

    Clottey will break down, again. His guard is going to get him another beating at the hands of Margarito. Paul Williams is a guy that would have a good chance of getting Margarito, but he'll have to do it again on amateur style fighting by continiously throwing light combinations. It's a bull**** way to win for my taste, but Williams needs to eat.

    I would give Williams more than 50% chance. Like 90% Williams said before their fight that he had gotten the better of MArg in sparring. He called him out ALOT. And then went on to beat him.


    Margarito should have known who who Williams was because they apparently sparred. He would know full well what Williams is capable of.
    I would never believe Margarito came ill prepared for Williams.

    Williams claimed he beat him up in sparring so WHY would Margarito come ill prepared to fight him? I just cant grasp that logic there. Not that I am saying Margarito is a scholar or anything like that but ...

    Some people here are saying Mosely but jeez...IDK.

    I think Margarito style plays right into what Mosely needs , to be succesful. But can he withstand the constant pressure? Maybe...But at his age? Who knows.

    I do know that Mosely can be confused by a natural boxer. And Cotto even used that to his advantage against Mosely .

    Margarito most likely wont do anything to confuse Shane and will be available for Mosely to do what he does best ...BRAWL:deal

    So 50/50 for Mosely

    and 40/60 Clottey He put up a good fight but IDK. I tought he deserved a draw against Margo but ...

    90/10 For Williams - Williams was pretty confident calling out Margo and even claimed he beat him up in sparring. He then got his shot and took the first six rounds with what appeared to be ease .

    Williams should be the more confident fighter going into a rematch .

    PBF, Paul Williams, and probably Mosley (age may be a factor but hasn't shown yet), and "possibly" Clottey if we stay at 147

    However, those that have a big edge against Margarito are the top fighters at junior middleweight and at middleweight. Think about it, do you think the style that Margarito fights will be succesful at those levels, like against Kelly Pavlik? Grant it, I think if Margo fought Pavlik at middleweight, he would get KTFO by Pavlik who is bigger, stronger, and throws powerful combos. If not KOed, then Margo definitely gets hurt.

    Pavlik vs Margo. I wonder what type of fight this would be

    Williams already schooled him and so would PBF.
