Paul Williams vs. Carlos Quintana

February 9, 2008

OUTCOME: Quintana by Decision

ANDY'S PICK: Williams by Knockout (oops)

THE BET:
4 Units on Williams by KO at +125

THE PAYOUT:
-4 Units

There really isn't any reason to discuss why Paul Williams will win this fight because there is no mathematical possibility that he will lose.  However the smart money will bet on the knockout because there is almost an equally unlikely chance that Quintana will survive the full twelve rounds with the best welterweight since Tommy Hearns.  Yes you heard me right.  All one has to do is watch how Williams handled the fearsome Antonio Margarito or how he systematically destroyed Sharmba Mitchell to understand the potential of this South Carolina native.  Aside from the great Cotto, with whom he couldn't last five rounds, Quintana has a resume littered with journeymen and has beens.  Carlos has no chance of going the distance with this behemoth and if he wins even one round I will be shocked.  Not to mention, ahead of a potential megafight Williams will be looking to impress, and so even though he could likely cruise to a victory with his jab alone, expect him to be looking for the spectacular KO.  After Williams puts Quintana to sleep anyone who dares challenge this phenom will be laid to rest just the same. And yes that goes for both Cotto and Mayweather.
