    People won't realize this till Williams fights someone else. The only other fighter in the welterweight division i see being a tough one for Williams would be the rematch with Margo.

    Believe me there's more than one tough fight for PW in the division. I hope that PW doesnt think that way because he's about to get a rude awakening.:-(

    I know youre not, its cool. I think that the WW division is full of tough fights, not just for PW but for everyone, thats why is the hottest one right now.

    PW-Cotto=tough
    PW-Mosley=Tough
    PW-Margarito=Tough
    I think another fight with Quintana would not be as easy as the first one.
    PW-Collazo=not an easy one
    PW-Clottey=not an easy one

    I have to agree that there are some tough fights out there for him. He woudn't just walk through the division.

    I don't, however, see Cotto as an extremely tough fight for him. I don't see Shane as particularly tough fight either, considering size and workrate. The old man just wouldn't be able to keep up.

    People underestimate his power because they saw him hit Margarito with very little effect. Well, so did Cotto, with MUCH MORE, and it had very little effect also. So when Williams hits him and don't affect him its because he's got no power. BUT when Cotto hits him and doesn't affect him it's because of his iron chin. WHICH ONE IS IT?

    Call me crazy, but the toughest fights for Paul right now in Welterweight are
    (1) Margo - They will one day end up in a Trilogy I predict
    (2) ZAB - Go ahead and laugh, but he's a fast Southpaw who is better than Quintana
    (3) Cintron - He has a lot of quit in him, seems like, but he has pretty good size and devastating Power (or so people say)

    All this talk about Williams talking trash, but he's basically right about Cotto. Williams can talk because he went 12 rounds with Margarito and beat him, Cotto didn't do that.

    Williams would give Cotto problems

    Is he though? If Cotto was just a little more durable, or alot - say like Shane Mosley, what would have been the outcome? It was a close fight.

    PW is doing a good act of calling out everyone hopefully he can win his next fight who ever it is against,

    115-113 isnt a whooping thats 1 round from being a draw

    Williams is talking **** so the boxing world will pay more attention to him. Right now the focus has been on Marg(rightfully so) and Williams cant handle it.

    He needs to shut his mouth and fight. We have waited long enough

    Williams still has the tools and physical advantages to be a threat to anyone in the division, but there are also still questions about him to be answered. In his match against Quintana, he showed it is not that difficult to get into his inside and land punches against him. He also showed this against the slower Margarito. How would he react to punches from a big puncher like Cintron? Or someone like Andre Berto? I am not saying these guys necessarily beat PWs, but we dont know how he would do against more naturally athletic guys than Margarito. Styles make match-ups; who would have thought Quintana would have caught Williams the way he did in their first fight.

    I think Williams matches up well with everyone in the division except Clottey.
