Incredible reach, better than average speed, and tons of volume--those are all his selling points, but if he great power, Winky wouldn't have lasted the thru the 5th round. Kelly Pavlik is a power puncher,he's a little taller than Williams, and has the reach to counter-punch him, (maybe; there's still a 7in difference in reach). Perhaps Williams could have boxed him to death, but at least this time it would have been a case of Williams just having 10in reach advantage on someone.

    #3--Quintana did win the first fight. No question. No better answer to a loss than a first round mollywopping though. Sergio is a hell of a boxer, and I think this is going to be one of the greatest fights that no one is going to watch, unfortunately. In my mind, this fight hinges on Sergio's ability to counter, and disrupt Williams' rhythm and volume.
    1. He's had big fights and it's what he did that made people like Floyd Mayweather Jr. a bit apprehensive about fighting him.

    2. Williams has some good pop, he leveled Quintana pretty good. It's just he usually overwhelms people with his output, I think that style will start to change when he adds more weight.

    3. Sergio Martinez is exactly like Williams, too dangerous for anyone to take a chance vs. Martinez is a tough TOUGH fighter to beat.

    That's what I need to see.
