    I don't know if Williams would be drained too much to go back to 147 at this point or not so let's say 150 or 154.

    Now this was considered a freak show/joke fight before. Does Pacquiao's performance against Cotto and Williams' performance against Martinez change your opinion any? Is it still just a freak show because of the size?:think

    It won't ever happen of course because PTP can't draw flies, but interesting to speculate.

    Pac would dislocate Paul's kneecap by accident and it would be a no decision.

    He could if he constanly moved in and out and used his angles and speed ....if he gets caught he's dead.

    Certainly he could but I would favor Williams. Williams throws a lot and is a huge Welter/Super welter bad size matchup.

    After having seen how often Williams was getting hit yesterday (almost at will) I would favor Pacman.

    I thought Williams lost yesterday on my scorecard, but it easily could've been a draw.

    Just look at the size difference, Pacquiao would lose just because of that.
    And Martinez giving Williams all he can handle doesn't
    prove anything.

    Would you like to admit you were wrong yesterday Jeff and I was right?

    :D

    In answer to the question, it's doubtful.

    Yes, You were right Tommy!:p

    Is Williams not as good, or Martinez just very good also? I scored it a draw by-the-way. What about you?

    Doubtful because of the size regarding Pacquiao v Williams?

    Pacquiao was supposed to lose because of "size" in his last 3 fights according to many people. He fights big.

    Yeah because Cotto and Hatton are close to Williams in size :patsch, and nevermind that version of Oscar.

    He's taller than Cotto, but not much heavier. Anyway, I didn't say they were the same size as him.
