    How do you see this one going between these two in their primes at junior middleweight? Both guys had tremendous physical attributes for the weight class and great stamina to go along with these attributes. Both threw great combinations, Trinidad threw with more precision and power but Williams workrate was really something special. Would make for a very good and interesting match up IMO.

    Trinidad absolutely demolishes Williams, no ifs or buts about it. Paul came forward and let his hands go, something Trinidad would absolutely revel in.

    I lean towards Trinidad winning this at welter or super welter. Williams would have moments with his workrate, but Paul left himself open...Trinidad by stoppage.

    I think Tito ruthlessly chops Williams down for a 6th round ko...no question at all.

    Trinidad by mid round stoppage. Williams just didnt have the defense to beat Felix.

    I'm struggling to pick him, but williams certainly had a chance, especially @ 160

    Trinidad could get caught but Williams was easy to hit. Bad match-up for Williams
