I hope Paul knows what he is doing going up 2 weight classes to take on a decent and powerful fighter like Pavlik.

Also Jones Jr. outclassed and just played with Jeff Lacy last night making Lacy not come out of his corner for the 11th.

If Pavlik can land that left any amount of times... it will be problems for Williams. And how much speed will Williams sacrifice moving up that much? That is his strong suite.

Dangerous matchup for Williams for sure.

Roy Jones Jr. is still wack.. fighting washed up scrubs. Jeff Lacy??? Jeez, who is next? Ike Quartey?? Winky Wright?

Roy is still fighting?? Lol. I guess the lucrative rap career wasn't cutting it.

Just shows how far boxing has fallen on the sports landscape. 8 years ago Roy was headlining marquee events and was considered the best pound for pound fighter out there.
