Default If Mayweather fights Paul Williams next,

how will he deal with the size disparity? Facts:

Floyd Mayweather Jr
height5? 8? / 173cm
reach72? / 183cm

Paul Williams
height6? 1? / 185cm
reach82? / 208cm


With a 5 inch height and a foot reach advantage, what should Mayweather do to pull a win against Paul Williams?

Also note, that a defense minister like Winky Wright didn't stand a chance and Williams won decisively in that bout.

I agree with most of you that Mayweather will most likely not accept the challenge should Williams call him out.

In fact I believe he doesn?t need a Paul Williams fight. Beating Mosley, Pacquiao and Cotto is sufficient enough for him to be enlisted as one of the all time boxing elites.

I totally agree with Jon. Should Mayweather accept the bout, the seemingly outcome is that he?ll get KOed in the late rounds, I also agree that there isn?t enough torque in Mayweather?s punches. No offense to his fans but his dominance in speed and power can only be felt at light welterweight / lightweight at most.

@Ring King. Yes there is a possibility that Wright is over the hill but it should not be overlooked. Winky?s current skill set is still adequate to punish most welterweights. Even pulling a win over Mosley for the third time is a big probability.
