    With a fight scheduled on Nov 29th with Paul Williams against an unnamed opponent, it could be that one of his options is IBF WW Champ Joshua Clottey. Break down their physical and stylistic attributes if the fight were to take. Style includes speed, power, agility, offense, defense, stamina, heart, and chin and body toughness.

    williams holds a significant advantage in almost every category

    Speed – Williams not by a lot
    Power – Willliams by a lot
    Agility - Williams
    Offense – Williams to many puches trown
    Defense – Clotey clearly better
    Stamina - Push both good for 12 rounds
    Heart - Williams (i.e Margarito fight)
    chin toughness - Push both can take a shot well
    body toughness – Williams, Clotey has been hurt to the body before.

    Forget about all that bull**** that you mentioned.

    This fight comes down to styles and versatility.

    Clottey is a protypical slugger. He's a guy that covers up, will take several hits to land one or a combination, doesn't like to move to much, and likes his opponent to come to him.

    He has the ability to box, but not at the elite level.

    Paul will simply keep the fight at a distance and pepper him with punches. It will be a very boring fight with Williams winning via DOMINATING UD.

    It's not even worth watching.

    Speed-Both.But Williams is more wide with he's punche's and Clottey has fast hand's as well and Paul will get hit a lot.
    Power-Williams
    Offense-Williams
    Defense-Clottey
    Heart-Both
    Chin-Both but it's very hard to hit Clottey on top
    Body Toughhness-Clottey.

    Williams has WAAAAAY more stamina than Clottey.

    If you don't believe me, ask Margarito.

    Clottey has better Power, though.

    Williams wins this fight easily and in boring fashion 9-3.

    Williams UD.

    Longer reach, quicker, better skill, tremendous work rate.

    Clottey is a tough ******* but he would be kept at the distance by William and would be rendered useless and spam, practically like a garbage which was what he was during the 2nd half of his losing fight against Margarito.

    I disagree Clottey stops guys from accumulative effect of many punches over many rounds, what top level or even B level opponent has Clottey KO'd cleanly in his last 10 fights ? Williams against Kolle and Quintana proved if he sits down on his shots more he is easily the heavier puncher of these two.

    Yeah, that was at the bell at the end of Round 8. That punch was SOOOOOO hard it almost seemed like it lifted him up off the canvas. Everyone in the Home Depot Center just got quiet and waited for Paul to fall.
