MIAMIHERALD: Miami resident Lara will challenge Williams

Eager to prove their recent performances were just an aberration, Miami resident Erislandy Lara and former two-division world champion Paul Williams will face off in a “crossroads” fight Saturday night in Atlantic City.
The Lara-Williams bout is one of the sport’s most highly anticipated matches of the summer. Lara is attempting to overcome his lackluster draw against Carlos Molina, and Williams makes his first appearance since a second-round knockout loss against Sergio Martinez last November.

“For me, that is the best guy to get in the ring with — a guy that can take a punch,” Williams said of Lara
