It's pretty surprising that 76% are picking Tito by KO. Williams is bigger than Tito and has never been down or even badly buzzed.
Not surprising at all. Williams is very hittable, and against Tito you can't afford to get hit that much.
Tito was pretty hittable as well and hit the canvas something like 11 times. I still don't see how so many people can pick a guy to lose by KO to a smaller man when that fighter has never been or even hurt that bad.
To be fair outside of Hopkins, a lot of those KDs were in the first half of the fight. I think Tito would outclass Williams...BUT I do think Tito would struggle early on. He usually does.
He was a Margarito X 100 offensively and defensively. The only thing he had worse was footwork. Both Plodders, but Tito had horrible balance.
Exactly my point. Half the time these people don't put any thought into the other fighter. They just automatically say Tito by KO. Williams has shown nothing but an iron chin for his career. Picking Tito by KO is foolish.
I agree he has a very good chin, but you don't think saying he has an "iron" chin is a bit much? It's not like this guy has been in there with some of the best punchers ever..which is exactly what Tito is..
C'mon Pimp..picking Tito by KO is foolish?...c'mon bro, that's a ridiculous thing to say.. how many WW's hit harder than Tito..not very many..
I'd pick Tito by decision. I think it would be a war but I wouldn't pick Tito by KO no way. Williams is a tough guy with an iron will to win. I saw this in the 12th round of his fight with Margo when he turned it up just as it looked like he was finally sub-coming to Margo's pressure.
That pick in your avatar proves that no matter how good a chin you have you can be KOed if enough lands... and Williams has never faced a puncher as devastating as Tito, nor does he have the defense to avoid Trinidad's best punches. No way Williams makes it to the final bell... and Williams' chin is good and sturdy, but iron? :roll: I've seen him hurt before and he's never faced a puncher the likes of Trinidad.
Better chin? maybe. But defense? Pfffft, tito could actually avoid a punch or two. While Williams is the kind of guy who makes Margarito look like a good defensive fighter. Now that's saying something about how bad Paul is defensively. And this statement is just plain stupid, you ignorant ****.
