I liked Tony and don't tink he's a bum; lots of heart and tough n' durable. And to be honest I actually didn't give Williams a shot at beating him down the stretch. I didn't realize how big that dude is, and his work rate was phenomenal. I never thought Tony had a snowballs chance in hell against Floyd, because he is so slow and cumbersome, and really has won fights through atrition and simple will. But I think he was simply overwhelmed with the work rate last night. Did he block alot of punches last night?? Yes, but those take a toll on your arms and fatigue you when were talking the volume thrown at him and I quite frankly think he became fatigued. You'll notice in the last round Tony didn't do s#it, and it's not cause' he thought he won. I had alot of respect for Tony but the disrespect he gave to Williams was shameful: hell even Tony's wife was talking bad to Williams. Though understandable from a certain standpoint{no big payday now with Cotto}, it's not Williams fault he was awarded the decision, it was Tony's. He couldn't win that war of atrition: a case of a too little too late. Williams is a diamond in the rough, who looked real polished and would love to see Floyd fight this guy. JMHO
