I think Quintana has a decent chance in this to be honest. He lost to Cotto becuase Cotto is a murderous brutal beast in the ring and he couldn't take his body shots, Williams will just try and pitter patter him to death.
There is no weight on Williams' punches, seriously nothing at all. It's been embarrassing at times in his career watch him completely outbox a guy and literally pound them with a million and one pitter patter shots but not doing any damage leaving the referee floundering as he clearly wants to stop a mismatch but has no real reason to stop at any one point in time.
He strikes me as being more of an annoyance than a real fighter. That doesn't mean I think he'll be easy to beat, far from it in fact, his freaky long arms and stretchy body mean it's like facing Dhalsim from Streetfighter.
All I'm saying is that Quintana can't be discounted on the basis of his loss to Cotto as Williams is a completely different fighter.
He'll probably still beat Quintana as his style is so difficult to counter but I Quintana's weakness to body punches won't be a major factor in this fight I don't think.
