    I'm not sure how he's going to look. I wouldn't be suprised if Lara won though. I expect it to be a good fight.

    He can come back. The question is where does he go. With his frame, he can put on some muscle, but Everywhere he goes, Martinez has already been there and could be back. Maybe he should fight Cintron again and reassess.( Perhaps in an octogon or something Cintron cannot jump out of)
    Lara has 3 first round Ko's in the last 4 according to boxrec, When he stepped up in comp, he got a majority decision. Williams will be the toughest guy he's fought. It will either be a comeback win over an undefeated guy... or "Deja Vu all over again". The first few rounds will be interesting, if Williams starts slow and his chin and confidence aren't what they were. Lara could be sniffing for weakness and looking for the ambush.

    Paul Williams is strong enough mentally and good enough skill wise to come back from that devastating knockout. Lennox did it twice and I believe Paul is made of the same stuff.

    Paul is 29 so he relatively young and he hasnt taken a ton of punishment although he does get hit in fights. I dont think he will be a undisputed champ or p4p but may win a title or two and can make a good living. He has a good style and attitude so he will get TV time. His aura of invincibility is gone from others fighters perspectives and even probably in his own mind. Time will tell. Amir Khan seems to be fairing ok after an equally devastating KO so I think he can come back. plus Paul was KO'd by a true top P4P guy with deceptive power. Just ask Kermit cintron who said something like "No one can hit that hard" when Sergio knocked him on his ass and he cried and they ruled a head but.
