    Okay, so let's start off by stating the obvious - Tall Paul had a MUCH better chin than Kirkland. But, he still had a non-existent defense. Does he outwork/out fight Ginger or does he get hit too much and get lit up?

    It would be interesting how Paul's workrate would have affected Canelo. Another interesting fight would've been Margarito vs Canelo.

    Questionable wraps aside, Margarito wasn't effective at 154. I think Canelo would have beaten him up and won a UD.

    I'd have paid to see either matchup regardless of the outcome. If there's one thing all three had in common it's a willingness to war.

    Margarito was shit, Canelo would've beaten him easily. Was never big on PWill either, I think Canelo beats him as well.

    Strange that I defend Ging, but yeah I think he beats Williams also. Paul got hit toooooooooo fuckin much. Really, Williams defense wasn't that better than Kirkland's. He just had a much better chin than Kirkland, and overall was more talented. Still, Canelo would have no problem at all finding Williams with combinations. I think he'd hurt Tall Paul a number of times, and drop him. Not sure he stops Williams, but inflicts enough damage to win on the cards. It woulda been a war though, that's what counts.

    You're not worried about his leaky defense vs Canelo?

    I'll go with Williams by close decision but not something i'm confident in. I can see a good argument for Canelo as well.

    Not particularly... I'm more worried about Canelo's gas tank
