    Clotteys gloves win because they wont be doing much other than blocking...any fight with Clottey is a sleeper.

    clottey will fight the usual quite early fight and turn it on late, based on that he wouldn't win because I believe he would leave it too late to turn it on and be left with no feasibale way of winning without a knockout and he won't ko williams.

    Williams 1-7 or 8 Clottey once he decides to turn it up
    williams ud

    I'd say Williams wins by UD,Clottey low workrate will be his downfall against Williams who's always pumping his jab and trying to find an opening.

    I'm leaning towards Clottey. Size won't be a factor in this one as Clottey is a huge WW himself. I think Quintana showed the blueprint for beating Williams and that's countering him effectively. Clottey has the talent to do that but he's got some bad intentions in his punches. I could see him landing that leaping left hook all fight long. I just think Williams' somewhat limited arsenal will be exploited by Clottey.

    Clottey UD, possibly stoppage due to accumulation later.

    Clottey can't stop a former lightweight who already had a shaky chin to begin with (RIP), he isn't stopping a big, durable welterweight like Williams.

    Thanks for sharing your thoughts. As for me, I think Clottey has what it takes to upset Williams which I believe to be a solid chin, good countering ability, power and enough stamina. But like I said, I think Clottey upsets Williams, wouldn't be surprised if somehow Williams out worked him. I think that's what most are expecting and why it would be somewhat of an upset.

    clottey i dont know why williams is thought to be so good cause he beat margarito? i dont think margarito prepared very well for that fight and i dont think margarito is all that good if he dont knock u out u win pretty much i think margo got lucky clottey broke his hands in there fight and williams lost to a bumb in quintana clottey by UD maybe late stoppage
