If they were serious about a possible Pavlik v. Williams, I think this would be an interesting fight. Hearns has name recognition, and is similar in size to Pavlik. Hearns also is a pretty good prospect, so it would gauge how good Williams could be at a higher weight class. If they could make this fight on the undercard of a Pavlik bout, it could create some good buzz.
After watching Hearns on Showbox the other night this was the first fight I though of ..If Hearns continues to win and Williams moves up to 154 it would be an interesting fight ..I got to say I like Hearns Jab .. Maybe in a few yrs depending on how their careers turn out ..
Ronald Hearns would get beaten badly by Paul Williams. I don't think he is ready for that kind of fighter. Ronald Hearns should fight Chavez Jr. I think that would be a better fight.
I did like how Ronald Hearns looked though. He has a good jab and I think he is gonna be a huge threat in the next couple of years.
williasm would fail at 160 just like dlh he has not enough power for the pavlik and abraham that can knock out good boxers at that weight
Oscar came from much lower weight classes (130) so Williams might pack some power if he moves up. I really think he would do much better at 154 and 160. If he can't land a big fight at 147 in the near future, the maybe he should test the water at 154 with a top ten guy to see how he does.
