Further to the exclusive interview brought to you by this site last week, Rubin "Mr. Hollywood" Williams punished Aaron Norwood for ten full rounds in taking a decision win, moving his record to twenty-six wins against one loss. The best news was yet to come for Williams though as it has been revealed that he is indeed set to face IBF super middleweight champion of the world Jeff Lacy on March 5. Our very own Patrick Gibbons reported that Williams was waiting to hear of Lacy's decision from his team's proposal for the fight and now it has been accepted. Lacy was set to face Danny Batchelder but now that fight has been scrapped in favor of a fight with Williams. We will keep you updated to the news in this story as it develops.
