This weekend its all about Margarito vs Williams.......
Iv looked into my crystal balls and it said
Margarito by KO 8
That freaky tall, skinny boy Williams, has no chance, i dont give a fuck how TALL he is, its goin to be like a man fighting a boy.
So what do u think?

Williams by late TKO. He will keep Margarito off with the jab and pick him off with those long range uppercuts

Im going with Magarito aswell.
But its a close call, I dont think either are that good.

I think his too loose, leaves his chin out to be cheacked IMO.

I thought Marg could take a punch? Took Clottys well.

your right - the clubber has a great punch and marg did cop a few bombs

and we know Clotty broke a hand, before that he was landing nice, crisp, clean shots, and he broke his hand on Margos head :good

do you think the height difference and williams southpaw stance will give margo plenty of trouble? it takes 3 or 4 rounds for most fighters just to figure williams out
Marcus

i think Williams will freeze up and Marg will be on him from the first round.

Margarito is going to Ko Williams...thats what I konw
First off I think both of these guys are flawed, yet on the same token are very interesting fighters. Style wise I think this will be a nightmare for Marg. He won't have the skills to effectively engage WIlliams in close quarters which is where he needs to be.
Both of these guys appear to have good chins, so what will be interesting is to see who can take the sustained punishment well, and how well Williams can cope against a good body attack.
I pick Williams by UD. I think Marg is over rated by many, and is set to be exposed. Williams is by no means perfect, but I think he has what it takes to get the job done.

Come on MSTR you are talking about the "most feared man in boxing" :D
I see your point, Im sticking to my pick of Magarito on points or possible behind the cards KO but there is something in my mind that tells me Magarito is going to have a hard time winning this one on the cards.
And there isnt a whole lot of evidence the say that Williams will eventually crack or has a weak chin. All signs point to a pretty sturdy fighter.
So maybe the behind the points KO is off the table.
Should be a good fight, even if it isnt entertaining boxing needs matchups like this, to pit different styles and the best against each other.

:lol:
Yeah if floyd ever fought Marg he would horribly out box him and all then everyone would turn around and say he was never that good anyway. I can't believe some people have trouble understanding the logic in him avoiding that fight for a potential match up with Oscar that generated millions.
I think this will be a great fight regardless. I would definitely love to see the winner take on Cotto. That would be a hell of a fight, and we would be one step closer to seeing a unified champion.

he hasnt got a half bad chin - also he fights quite well inside seeing as his punches arent as strong as many others in the division. Interesting what happens now with him, Mosley and Cotto at the top of the division

If i was Williams fight someone like maybe a Cintron or Clottey.
I wouldnt take on Cotto or Mosley just yet.
Welterweight is really heating up.:good
Best division in boxing by a long way.
The whole top 10 are worthy world champs.
Good young prospects like Andre Berto too.:thumbsup

i agree - really strong division and always exciting. Hopefully we get a great unification bout down the track
Marcus, I think you need to replace your crystal ball. It might be faulty - you can check, it might still be under warranty :tong :good

Definitely an awesome division right now. I am just hoping that Cotto can seize the opportunity and fight the big names while he has the chance. Mosley and then Mayweather would be awesome. Even a Williams fight would be good, as Williams is coming off a very impressive win and Cotto would match up very well to him style wise.
Personally I think Williams could beat Mosley quite handily. Mosley doesn't like having to get inside of taller opponents, and struggled against Wright and Forrest who were both taller fighters with longer reach.

Cotto will seize the opportunity mate.
Favourite overseas fighter of mine.
Should he beat Mosley, sets up the mouthwatering clash with Mayweather.:dead
He will not beat Mosley, no way no how. He gets hit waaaay too much and has been hurt many times. He will not beat mosley. He might beat Mosley in say 6 yrs :yep but then that's 50/50
