    Margarito vs. Williams will be a war with both men giving and taking their fair share of punishment.

    The biggest factor in the fight will be the difference in handspeed. Williams is so much faster than Marg, that it's not even funny. Williams is going to consistantly beat him to the punch and outland him by a significant margin in the process.

    But...

    Williams isn't particularly strong, nor does he fight well backing up. So Marg will have some success when he's bringing the fight to Paul. The Matthysse fight showed me Paul at least has a sturdy chin. But it also showed me he doesn't like it to the body. Matthysse's body shots were noticeably effective. If Margarito works the body (and starts early), he should be able to inflict some fight changing damage. If not, then he's ****ed, because I don't think Margarito can stop Williams without a body attack.

    In the end, I see Williams eking out a decision (115-113/116-112ish) possibly late round TKO due to cuts, going against my original prediction of a Marg victory.

    But anyway, the true winner that night will be us; the fans. :happy

    Williams UD 12. 118-110.
    If Margarito wins he should get more respect round here than he dose. This is a real challenge.

    Williams is too quick an skilled imo however.
