    Williams started as a Middleweight. Wouldn't be a drastic move for him as he has the frame and previous experience filling out that weight.

    It'd be a bad move for him to face Pavlik though. He'd be beaten badly.

            Pavlik would be taken to jail shortly after the fight and bought up on charges of 1st degree homicide. Who really thought this fight would be a good idea?

              I agree! If Williams wants to move back to MW, great! Fighting the undisputed MW in your first fight jumping two classes up in weight just seems dangerous though!

              Anyway, I think Williams should fight the winner of Cotto Marg first to settle things at WW. Maybe he's really having a tough, tough time making weight and doesn't want to do it anymore..

                  It is a bit of a no-win fight for Pavlik. If he destorys Williams, it's a welterweight moving up against a guy who is moving to 168 by next year.

                    Calzaghe would wipe the floor with this hypejob, washed up Jones who has to hide behind a turle shell defense lying on ropes. waiting for his opponent to tire.

                      Kelly would break that Somali-looking neck in Williams like a ****ing twig with a right hand. these promoters are crazy man
                      I would pick Williams to out box that tall, bumper car headed lisp talking, robot.
