    Mayorga would probably stop him. Williams open style is good against most fighters, but not against somebody who bulls his way in like Mayorga. The man has an excellent chin and bangs hard, which is a nightmare for somebody who weras his gloves around his ankles. I think Mayorga tears into Pdub a few rounds into the fight and gets the KO.

    On thing to note is that this fight is one where Mayorga's wild and wide swings would actually help him. Big, round and overhanded swings actually work when facing taller fighters.

    The more I think about it the more I'm tempted to change my pick from a late rounds KO to a mid or even early rounds KO. I mean if Mayorga had Williams hurt early the way Martinez did, Paul wouldn't have made it past the 3rd round.

    Mayorga by nasty KO ... his punching power with the right hand is top notch and he would've lured Williams into a brutal slugfest and knocked him out mid rounds ... he makes you fight hard and he's so awkward that it's very hard to adjust and I don't think many fighters have the patience to outbox Mayorga.

    Exactly:deal

    A guy whose primary defensive tool is his face would be in DEEP **** against Mayorga at 147.
