I say Williams would meet Pacquiao head on and would be a show of serious leather. Both sets of gloves would have to be some hardwearing shit on that night.

Anyone else feel the same?
I would totally agree on you BUT there is one thing that makes me think that Pacman would smoke him off his shoes:

Williams has a very clear problem with southpaw, Martinez, Quintana are quite good proof of it. In that respect, I think that it would be a terrible mismatch.
So was Winky Wright

What Williams clearly struggles with are slick fighters with good movement. I think Pacquiao comes under that, but truthfully I think both Manny & Floyd would decision PW comfortably leading to him be branded overrated.

Anyway I'm not that bothered about seeing this fight. The only way that Williams is worth enough for one of the top 3 at 147 to fight is if he gets a win over Pavlik. Williams should focus on cleaning up at either 154 or 160. MW particularly is gonna get real hot over the next year or two.
