I think Williams stops Pavlik late...he's a southpaw, he can carry his power, he throws punches in volume, and he's got a very solid chin, I am sure he will pay close attention to defense fighting someone like Pavlik.

Williams by TKO/KO?! I mean, i think it's a fair fight, but I don't see Williams knocking out Kelly.. BHOP landed plenty of flush shots and all it did was stun him.. Taylor landed some bombs and almost had him out but couldn't finish.. I don't think Williams should even think of going into this fight with KO on his mind because that will mean he will have to sit on his punches a bit more, leaving him more vulnerable to get hit. He will need to punch and move like he normally does.

I think Pavlik beats Williams. If Williams can be stunned by a welterweight easily as Quintana and Margarito has shown. I think Pavlik will stop him. Once Williams get's hit by one of Kelly's power shots to the body I don't think Williams' skinny rail of a frame will hold up to that type of power. Williams will give him fits but he will not hurt Kelly. Kelly by TKO.

Williams on points or a Pavlik KO. Either the Hopkins fight or something affected Pavlik, I'm sure not all the negative stuff we've heard recently is all true but he's definitely having problems. But he's going to be punching hard at 160 and that's his best chance. It could be fight of the year.
