Which fight will Kelly Pavlik -vs- Paul Williams resemble more?

Now obviously no two fights look the same. However, fights frequently play out similarly. So if you could pick only one.. Would a fight between Kelly Pavlik & Paul Williams look more like Bernard Hopkins -vs- Kelly Pavlik OR Paul Williams -vs- Antonio Margarito and why? Also, depending on your answer. How do you think the said comparison will reflect in Pavlik/Williams. There are obviously a lot of factors to consider.. size, handwraps, style etc.. Remember, this does not necessarily condemn either fighter, so huggers don't freak out! Poll to follow. Please discuss.

Pavlik is a more controlled more powerful version of Margarito so definetly Williams-Margo. People should get their predictions in line with what is a landslide of a poll.. A big variable however would be whether Williams is significantly stronger than he was at WW. Which I think he is, but not enough to overcome the fact that Pavlik has been severely underrated after losing to a tactician like no other who is naturally larger than him at this stage at a weight roughly 10lbs higher than he's ever fought.

Plasterito was a good fight for Williams to prepare for this one. Cheato is not as tall or as strong as Pavlik but he does work the inside far better and their actual punch strength is probably quite similar because of the plaster used. Oh and Cheato v Williams was an incredible fight by the way. Really really intense. Great last round by Williams to pull it out.

It'll definately resemble Williams/Margarito but Pavlik is way stronger than Plasterito. This fight is not good for Williams he will definately get to Pavlik but he'll catch plenty himself, Pavlik got this.

Tall WW going up to fight a shorter MW. Both hit pretty hard. Hagler-Hearns.

lol, yea idk why but it reminds me of that, two guys that styles together can only equal war. bumping.. To add on to what has already been said, I think P-will would play the role of Hearns. So far the poll is pretty clear this will look more like the Margarito fight but with a bigger stronger Margarito.. Williams should really really focus on boxing and movement. He's going to discover that he can buzz and stun Pavlik at times and I believe that could prove to be his undoing. Cause if he does decide to slug, it will turn into a coin flip at best.
