    It wont be like the corrales fight. But mayweather would have a field day countering Williams..it would be like a kid in a candy store...lol...He probably start getting creative with his counters...uppercuts..hooks str8 rights the whole nine.. I think Paul is too tough unless floyd gets to that gut which aint hard. Catch and go..slip and go....not going to be easy but Floyd will make it look so. The thing is..since mayweather is little williams would try to engage him more and in the process lose his reach advantage and he would try to beat floyd up on the inside. But he will have no success.. And Williams falls in anyway when he throws from the outside with any power.. he is clumsy..

    Its hardly the same as Corrales, they are two completely different style of fighters. Corrales wanted to engage and got whooped, Williams will try and keep his distance and use the reach. Plus Williams is taller and has alot bigger reach than Corrales.

    Its hard to think how Mayweather would manage to overcome the reach disadvantage, but i think he would find a way and win a UD.

    :patsch Margarito couldnt do it, and he hits much harder than Floyd, do yourself a favor and cut down on the drug intake.

    You can have a good workrate against a flat footed guy standing dead in front of you coming forward with a shitty defense that he cant counter punch out of...But against a guy that is not a stationary target..Williams will be punching air..If williams keeps his distance which he wont...he has a good shot of being competitive in a close loss. But if he goes balls in and smothers floyd like he did sharmba and actually beat the crap out of mitchell in close. He would seal his fate. And might get stopped to the body. Floyd dont hit as hard as margarito but he hits cleaner and more often. And is pin-point accurate more so then any fighter in boxing. And Williams body is a big target...B/c he is wide backed..he is Tall thin and also wide..Corrales was plain skinny thin all the way around and floyd was tearing his body up with ease...

    Williams is too sloppy. Sometimes it looks like he doesn't control those long goofy limbs. He may be a volume puncher, but that will change after a few counters. Mayweather by wide UD or late stoppage.

    Floyd to skilled for Williams at this point. Makes to many mistakes for Floyd not to capitalize on.

    PBF by UD. A win over an over-hyped Margo doesn't show me that he's ready for PBF yet.

    I don't bet against Floyd, so Floyd by close decision. Maybe with a few more fights of Williams, I will change my mind.
