Dan Goosen: P.Williams ready to fight Floyd in March

[Dark Lord Al]

I may be alone , but i actually think Paul Williams would outpoint Mayweather if they fought. He handled the very defensive Winky Wright with ease , i think he is to busy and to big for Floyd.

Exactly what I think, add to it a disproportion range, a southpaw stance and a stamina that just doesn't fade, he has the perfect toolkit to potentially upset Floyd.

Does anybody realistically think Floyd would ever fight Paul Williams? Yes, Floyd's fought at 154 before and Paul Williams is very comfortable at 154, but when was the last time Floyd took a risky fight when there were low risk fights out there if the money wasn't astronomical?

[KananKrus]

Floyd vs Williams makes for an exciting match... but Williams is huge, too huge, and a southpaw. Those wingspan* 82 inch reach, is quite bothersome for anyone, bar none, even for an excellent fighter like PBF! *(IMO should be illegal at welterweight, LOL).

Floyd would entertain the idea but he would find a way to either price himself out or make the negotiations drag on so long Williams camp would move on

+1

can't see it happening though.

Floyd will not fight anyone this dangerous.

No it won't, and that's quite sad as it would be a cool and solid fight to see actually.

While Winky is no where near the top of his game you are right Williams handled him with ease....

I agree with the rest of the statement as well...Williams just too busy and big for Floyd...If Floyd laid on the ropes and tried to counter as he likes to all Williams would really have to do is fight tall and keep out of range whiole getting shots off...

The only thing I question is would Williams execute the plan properly....He has the habit of falling into his opponents game....Giving up his height at time one of his best weapons aside from his workrate

People are going on about Williams' stamina, but this has only really been above 147. At Welter he was routinely struggling to make weight & was tiring badly in the second half of fights with Margarito & Quintana. People are talking about Winky, but that was a Winky who hadn't fought in close on 2 years. I think the Martinez fight is a better indicator of how it would go, but with Williams unable to pull out some good later rounds & not having the benefit of being the house fighter.

I wouldn't be surprised to see this fight at 147.

for a guy that faded, he was still throwing more than 1000 punches a fight, not too bad indeed

Watch those fights. He starts throwing wildly & tires badly, particularly against Quintana. He has got great output, but I suspect he needs a stationary target to really make the most of it.

I agree with you. Williams wins this fight. But Floyd will bitch up on this fight. He'll run faster from Williams than he did from Margarito.
