The showdown between Paul Williams and Kelly Pavlik for middleweight supremacy will take place on October 3rd. It's great to see this fight happen after being supremely frustrated by the lack of an Arthur Abraham-Kelly Pavlik showdown. Williams has fought at welterweight all the way up to middleweight. He will take on the best at any of these three weight divisions. Certainly, taking out the middleweight champ would be a huge victory for the former welterweight ruler.
As for Kelly Pavlik, he is still looking to recover from a devastating loss to Bernard Hopkins last year. Winning against pound for pound mainstay Paul Williams would go a long way in restoring his confidence. This will be a classic speed versus power battle. Pavlik's solid knockout power will definitely keep Williams on his toes throughout the fight. However, the speed of Williams may be enough to keep Pavlik at bay for 12 rounds. It will be interesting to see who comes out on top.
