    Two southpaws.

    Both guys get hit, the difference between them is that Spence gets hit when he gets a bit overconfident and maybe a little greedy when wanting to fight inside and break the opponent down vs Williams who just punches too wide even when standing at distance and gets caught with counters.

    A lot of punches are thrown and landed by both guys, but Spence is too strong I think. He'll systematically break down Tall Paul and either win a clear UD or get a late rounds stoppage.

    I agree with the outcome but I think it's tough fight for Tall Paul. He sucked against other southpaws and Spence has the skills and power to make it a very bad night. If Paul used his height and size he might have been able to make it a harder fight but he's there to be hit and Spence would light him up.

    I think Tall Paul's activity gives Spence problems for the first couple of rounds, but after Spence gets his offense flowing, he breaks Williams down. It might go the distance, but given how cleanly Williams got hit and how heavy handed and accruate Spence is, my bet is on Spence stopping him circa 10-11.

    Yeah I think Williams wins a few rounds early on but takes a beating the longer it goes.

    Williams fights tall he wins, the problem is he isn't going to fight tall which means Spence KO's him in the 9th round

    Williams made zero use of his height, he made Diego Corrales seem like Carlos Monzon ... thus, he's competitive in his busy unorthodox way for a while before Spence's superior firepower ultimately tells the tale
