I'm a huge Williams fan, but Pavlik is going to starch him. Williams has a porous defense and while his activity is going to bother Pavlik, it's also going to provide him with a lot of opportunities to get his shots in. Pavlik is also, like Williams, and extremely active fighter and, unlike Williams, his chin his been proven in the middleweight division.

Pavlik by TKO in a FOTY candidate.
