The WBC and WBO World Middleweight Championship bout between Kelly Pavlik and challenger Paul Williams will be rescheduled to a new date of Nov. 21 or early December at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City.
Sources close to the Pavlik camp state that Kelly has suffered an injury while in training. Reports are that Pavlik suffered an injury to his middle knuckle of his left hand. Also, there is the possibility that his previous staph infection has flared up.
Dan Goossen of Goossen Tutor Promotions has said that is news to him and the Williams camp.
“If a release was sent stating that Pavlik was fighting November 21, I would be very interested in finding out who he’s fighting. As we’re all aware, we’ve just learned of Pavlik’s decision to cancel the press conference and thus the fight, and we will evaluate where we go from here.”
