    I think Cintron could Kayo Williams and PBF would counter him silly.

    I think Cintron/Williams is the fight to make, honestly. Let both these guys duke it out for the rights to be mentioned in the same breath as PBF, Mosley and Cotto.

    How??? Williams doesn't reach with his shots.

    Williams has a 10in reach advantage and a 7in height advantage over Mayweather..... Kinda hard to counter someone so big.

    Pretty sure it's a 5 inch height advantage. And you say it's kind of hard to counter someone so big, yet I don't recall Diego Corrales being a little midget. And he had way more power than Williams. So, yeah, Floyd's got the speed and reflexes to win against a bigger opponent. If you'd hop off William's nuts for a second, you'd see that he's got a ways to go before he's ready to tangle with the P4P best. I'm not even a Floyd fan, but there's no denying he's unbelievably talented.

    Mayweather would hit him with some accurate counterpunches, but the activity level of Williams and his height would be damn hard to overcome. The guy just doesn't stop and unlike Corrales when he fought Mayweather, Williams would be throwing 90-100 punches a round.

    Yeah But Corrales never got countered he just walked to Floyd and Floyd hit him.

    Corrales doesn't fight on the outside either he's an inside fighter. And Williams has about 2 or 3 inches on Corrales.

    Right now, I would pick Shane and Cotto over Williams. Floyd likely as well, but I think Williams stylistically would give Floyd fits. Trying to pot shot someone with such a physical advantage isn't the best idea. Cintron v Williams would be good.

    Cotto heart backed with relentless power punches will be the tough test for this guy.

    I don't think many fighters at this weight will be winning many decisions over PW. If you're going to beat this guy, you're gonna have to knock him out.

    This is ****ing bull****.

    So, Paul Williams beat ANTONIO ****ING MARGARITO and suddenly there's no way Floyd can beat him? How do so many people so quickly forget how talented Floyd is. I will say this.

    With a 10 inch whatever reach disadvantage, Pretty Boy Floyd will COUNTER Paul Williams. With a 5 inch height advantage, Floyd will land at a huge percentage against Paul Williams. With all of Paul Williams relentlessness, Pretty Boy Floyd will make him miss and miss and miss.

    Pretty Boy Floyd wins. How is it that you guys can so easily forget how good he is just because one guy beat Antonio?

    Thank you, not to mention he falls over his own punches.
