This is an excellent step up for Williams and also a risky fight for him in my opinion. Denis Douglin has fought a lot of good fighters and while hes mostly been on the losing end hes pushed some good fighters close and Williams has never fought near the level that Douglin has.

I do think Austin Williams will manage to win a decision but Douglin will make it awkward as hes experienced and if Williams isn’t careful he’ll run out of rounds and lose. I think his aggression and power should be enough to get him a win on the cards though.
