I would like Paul to beat the hell out of that bar brawling skinhead. While this is the case I realize that Paul would win the majority of the rounds due to his work rate, but what I am concerned about is if he can take the punch of a big punching MW. Pavlik is no slouch and averages 80 punches a round him damn self. However, Paul is a lot faster, and is more active and has a wider arsenal, but Paul gets hit, and gets hit flush. He has been hit a lot in all of his big fights, but he has had a good enough chin to take everybodys shots, but can he really afford to take the shots of Pavlik? I for one do not think so. My prediction goes one of two ways.
Paul just out works and outhusstles pavlik, possibly gets knocked down, but wins a close but clear decision.
Or
Paul ahead on all the cards gets worn down late (this isn't Margarito we are talking about here Pavlik is bigger and hits a lot harder) and gets stopped at around the 10th or 11th from an accumilation of punches.
It will either be Paul by clear UD or Pavlik by come from behind TKO.
Hopefully Williams beats Pavlik out of the MW division.
