I think Quintana will put another beating on the feather-fisted Williams

    Go, Indio!!!:happy

    Quintana's defence is just too good; he'll go inside and pick Williams off, just like he did in the first fight...

    It will pretty much be a repeat of the first fight, Quintana beating Williams one handed.

    He is a very good fighter, under-rated IMO.

    Quintana is not bad, but I think Williams is just made for him. In any case, Quintana is the kind of fighter that pro boxing needs; Williams would be better off in the amateurs.

    It's crazy how underrated Quintana is in this match-up! He's the big underdog again!:roll:

    You are probably right. But to say Williams is feather fisted is a bit strong, near 75% KO ratio!

    Quintana is decent, top 5 definitely. Him against Mosley would be an interesting clash of styles.

    I think guys like Williams are made for a lot of people, whilst guys are often made for him. For instance, I would back Ricky Hatton to chin Williams at 147, because he has always put tall fighters away with comparative ease, whilst Quintana would be a nightmare for him.

    As long as he can counter punch between Paul's flurries ; he should do fine. The counter punching is a style Williams seems to have no answer for in the first fight...

    Quintana should also have improved stamina and conditioning this time around or it could be trouble . I thought he was running out of gas halway through. ..probably due to Williams' work- rate.

    He stops them on accummulation, though, not because he hits 'em hard. He doesn't have power; his style is not based on power...

    This fight's going to make or break Williams. If he can adjust and beat Quintana it will answer a lot of questions about his ability to compete at the top level. Adaptability is what separates champions from merely good fighters. This fight should be a clear indication of where he stands.

    Hmmm...yeah...to beat Quintana he'll have to put in close to a B+ performance...can he do that?

    Only thing I'm afraid of is the judges...Williams is much more popular :)huh ) and the politics seem to favour him...:-(

    Quintana is much better for boxing, though; that is obvious!:happy

    Quintana should stop Williams this time..
    I dont' think Williams has what it takes to stop "Indio"

    Possible late K.O. victory by Q.
    If not a lopsided UD.

    Hatton hits harder, definitely. He also goes for the KO with those well placed shots to the liver...

    No, Williams reminds me a bit of Dawson, but Dawson hits harder...

    Not seen much of Dawson to be honest, from what I hear he is a tad overrated and lost his fight against Johnson or at least drew (don't hammer me for this - gossip only!!!!)

    Hatton always goes for the KO, whereas Williams didn't against Margo (pointless anyway - not happening) whilst against Quintana he was all over place, confused, lazy (at times) just not there.

    Dawson is very good; he was overrated on ESB, sure, but world-wide, he's not overrated...I think he's B+ and can get better.

    He didn't lose to Johnson, but he didn't look like he won it either...had Johnson been a couple of years younger, he'd have had him out of there in the third or the tenth...

    His problems are his chin and his tactical naivety...he's very talented physically but that is a lot to overcome...still, I think he'll perform at A- level soon.

    Not just underdog, but big underdog!

    He was 6/1 last time around; now he is 11/8..."Williams is 4/7)

    It must be down to the fact that there are so many backers for Williams...he seems to be much more popular and rated...
