You may be right, but I was thinking Paul's size/length, aggression and volume might trouble Floyd. When he fought Winky, Paul was brilliant at dictating the distance and keep Wright at the end of his punches where he would have to try and jump in to counter. Floyd was more mobile than Winky, but I still see this style giving him some issues. The other factor is that once Floyd figured this style out, Willliams would have the mentality/ability to take the fight inside and try to outhustle Floyd with sheer volume. Not saying it's a sure thing or even fight (Floyd's still the big favorite), just saying I see that scenario as a possibility.
