Berto would be destroyed idk about Clottey hes very tough. but too short to be able to reach Paul Williams on a consistant basis...
It's a shame that Williams has to resort to this type of behavior to land fights. He has earned the right to fight the top guys in WW for decent money without having to do this. It's not his fault, though. Bob Arum and his camp only responds to this type of behavior. And for the record, hell yeah he's serious about fighting these guys. He has wanted Cotto, Margarito, Cintron, Clottey and Zab for a good while now. And when he first wanted Clottey and Zab, they said "No thanks" and decided to fight each other. No more excuses.
Hell yeah. I hope Paul gets the fight done. I don't think this fight would be a problem for HBO, Clottey and Williams aren't superstars yet to the general public, so HBO might be able to get this done on BAD.
I would go for Williams all day long in this fight. Clottey is workmanlike and can wear you down, however his punch output is way below that of Margarito. Clottey is not as crafty as Quintana and is more straightforward, defensively Clottey is good but he stays in a defensive shell sometimes a little too long and does not throw enough. Clottey will also be considerably shorter at 5'8" which is a massive size difference, I see Williams winning a comfortable UD12.
I don't care who wins or loses. It does seem that some tend to rub in losses, and then can't accept that their fighter lost. These are the type of fans we can do without when talking about who is better this or that guy. If any of the top WW's fight, win or lose, props should be given. Like people just totally disrespected AM when he lost to Williams, and then people disrespected Williams when he lost to Q, and then they dissed Q, and then dissed Cotto. I know it's the internet, and guys wonder why they get no respect when they post. Some don't care, and you can tell. If Clottey beats Williams, people will assume AM would've won the rematch. If AM beats Berto, Berto was inexperienced. These guys deserve credit for fighting, win or lose, and deserve to make the highest amount that they can earn. Just bypass the fanatics, and we can talk boxing. There is a time to !#$#@$# around lol, and a time to talk serious boxing...
