Very risky when you have a guy throwing that many punches. Have you seen how Pac throws body punches ? He lunges at the body. He'd most likely get met with a glove.
Williams had a ten inch reach advantage over Quintana and Carlos was able to hit him at will in their first fight,Williams simply doesnt use the physical advantages he has over almost everybody he faces. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0U-0i0GxBUg[/ame]
How the body when you're being jabbed to death before you can get in punching range. Do you not think Williams would take advantage of the HUGE reach he has and keep Pac at his distance?
His length has nothing to do with it. I'm talking about lunging in for body blows against a guy who throws so many punches. Pac's technique on body punches is atrocious.
We park our cars in the same garage. I once made a poll about who, at and around 147, would guaranteed beat Pac in which I initially voted "any elite ww" but later narrowed my prognostication to only Margarito and PTP. Now if I had to reassess, I wouldn't feel comfortable making any such claim as Pac has proven himself to be a wrecking ball at the higher weights. He's truly a unique specimen that is almost impossible to pick against.
This is the fight that first sprung to mind when i saw this thread. I dont know who i would pick, whilst Williams has the height and reach Pac has the speed and power. I would say Williams UD. But i wouldnt at all be suprised if Pac won.
Watch Paul against Martinez again. He bends over at the waist and throws looping shots as he lunges in. Step in, pop, pop, pop, step out. Worked for Martinez and Pac is better than Martinez.
Go back and watch how easy Martinez draws him into his fight. Think Pac sticks to the 50/50 co-promotion now that he is a 'star' for the Martinez fight? :think
