Paul Williams: "I'm Coming To Take Kelly Pavlik's Crown"

[Ray*]

He will get credit from me. Any true fight fan will credit him with the win. You can always tell who the hypocrites are from boxing fans. This isn't some absurd fight that shouldn't be fought. I by no means ever talk big about a fighter and say he will win, and then discredit him if he loses. I care about my opinion. These are 2 world class fighters fighting. It happens all the time in boxing.

Am not on here arguing or disagreeing with you, You seem to be repeating the same point over and over again about this been a good fight, NOBODY is dis*****g that...Like i said look at the Mayweather/Hatton fight has an example on how fight fans take credit away from fighters especially when theyre fighting someone who moved up.

My problem is that it seems Williams is being criticized for taking this fight? Why? I find it to be a fascinating fight. I want to see if Williams can pull of what he did to Margs to Pav.

Who are the people critsing Williams? or why would anyone critise him?

self ownage at it's finest! great job, hypocrite!!!!!!

Williams has a lot of natural athleticism, but he doesn't have narley power at 147, he is solid but his height is what wins him the fight. He may have good power at 160, but I doubt that he could put Pavlik away. Pavlik is a hunter and the prey normally don't stand at the end of the fight.

Pavlik is a much better boxer. Has as of now the better beard, and has proven to have more power(34-0 30 KOs), at a higher weight class. I feel that Pavlik's offense is to complete for William's lack of defense. His height won't be an advantage, William's may be the taller man, but I say Pavlik is still the "bigger, wider, stronger" man.

I like Williams I thought he would be the guy to have a chance taking the entire WW linear championship, but this is to soon, perhaps in time he can move up. I don't see him being ready for this as he is very green to be in this type of fight with an experienced technician with power.

Menacing KO in 7, see Miranda.

Lol. I think the lead left hands that Quintana gave him are starting to take effect.

I think this might be the first time I will witness death in the boxing ring.

So Williams can go up to 160, then move down to 140 even if he wanted but he won't fight at 154 since there's no one there and after the Margo-Cotto fight he might come back down to Welter to see who the best really is, also BTW, he can even go as far as 175 if he wanted.....YUP, his head ain't right. Go ahead and do that paul, and you will get the nastiest KO some of us will ever see.

I don't see Paul Williams beating Kelly Pavlik, but if he does it will be upset of the year without any doubt. This will be an exciting fight...for however long it lasts.

[The Surgeon]

Entertaining for a short spell, then Pavlik KO's him RUTHLESSLY!
Punisher showin some balls here tho! But i guess he dont got nothin to lose here, then again this fight could Ruin him as a fighter!
Not gonna hate on Pavlik for takin a fight with a lighter guy either coz he stepped up in weight a bit to accomadate Taylor and has shown courage, he WILL fight Abraham and whoever else the public want him too IMO

Williams will make it tough for about 5 or 6 rounds I think. Probably an even fight half way through. Williams will be lanky, and difficult for Kelly to figure out enough to really impose himself on...at first. But Kelly will begin to figure him out after a couple rounds and he will start really landing some hard shots. He will clearly be the bigger, stronger man throughout the fight. Then the big punches of Pavlik start to take effect. Williams starts to break down and cover up more. It becomes a one sided beating. The "Ohhh's" and the "Ahhhh's" begin to get louder every time Kelly lands something clean because the crowd can sense what is coming. Then in the 10th round "Down goes Paul Williams!" KO in 10 for Pavlik.
