He's a guy that has a big wingspan that could give Floyd some trouble. He also packs a damn good punch. He's extremely unorthodox as well. But back to the issue about boxers ducking people. For all the hype about Margarito being ducked, he tried to duck someone himself...Paul Williams. After Williams put Sharmba Mitchell on the canvas in i believe 4 rounds (i'm not sure if floyd was able to knock him out or not, i can't remember) Paul Williams said to the cameras "I'll fight Margarito, all these other guys are running scared but I'll fight him." Then Margarito tried to dodge that fight as much as possible until he ran into a brick wall. I look for Paul Williams to beat Margarito and start asking Floyd to come out and play. Floyd will duck this match too.

Thats why Tony went to court to fight Arum so he could be allowed to fight Williams INSTEAD of Cotto...for less money and recognition....yeah he really ran into a brick wall there

He didn't need to fight Williams at all but he chose to,to prove how tough he is. And Williams would KTFO ANY of Floyds opponents at 147.
