    I know Kelly is a recovering drunk , but.

    Kelly has a real chance to beat Froch because a hard punching fighter who goes straight down the middle always has a shot against a guy who throws wide shots, and leaves his hands low. Simple mathematics.


    Did anybody see those wide ass punches he hit Bute with. Froch didn't get better, Bute just proved to be overrated.

    Handspeed and most definetely mobility would be the difference. Froch gives Pavlik the worst beating up to date in Kelly's life. Kelly will go from alcolhol to meth to combat the inner demons he has. The fight would be a cocktail(NO PUN INTENDED)of disaster for Kelly containing 1 half of B-Hop mixed with Sergio with more punch(once again no pun intended).

    I talking about the performance. Kelly cant move for ****. He's to robotic and he's slow as hell. There's a reason he's a club fighter.

    I wouldn't count out the best version of Pavlik vs. Froch - but who knows if we'll ever see that version again? Futhermore, there is a chance that Froch would be too big and strong for even the best Kelly who is built a bit too lanky for a smw at his height.

    I think Froch would be a disaster for Pavlik. Froch has attitude, conditioning, a chin, and a punch. We really don't know what Pavlick has to offer anymore. So unless the Froch that fought Ward shows up, I don't see a good night for Pavlik.

    I'd still back a Froch win, it's not like Froch is a paper champion.

    Let Kelly post a decent win or two at supper middle.. Lets see if what he had is still there.

    Personally i see pav as being made for froch. Ultimately he is slow, especially the feet and with this i mind i see the fight being a total war, one that the harder man would win in style. Froch has trouble with speed an movement, not something pav is famous for..

    kelly is a goon, that fight would be a shoot out and i never seen kelly lose a shoot out. froch would have to be the betting fav and i see why but kelly would be a live underdog in my book.i need to see him fight stiffer comp close to carls style to see if he could pull it off. i know he could hold his own but im talking about beat froch.

    Kelly is tailor made for Froch. Carl has A TON of problems with guys he can't hit at will. (Dirrell, Ward). Carl is slow, but Pavlik is even slower. Carl lacks technical boxing skill, Kelly has even less technical skill. Carls is easy to hit, Pavlik is even easier to hit. Easy win for Froch. As long as he gets guys who will either trade with him, or stand right in front of him, Carl continues to win.

    Arthur Abraham is a 1 - 2 fighter , and Froch stood there and boxed his ears off just like he'd do to Kelly Pavlik

    Pavlik is done

    I agree with this. You'd have to favor Froch, but Pavlik would be a very live dog. If Froch happened to overlook the guy across the ring from him in this fight, it could be a costly mistake(not that I expect him to do that). This is all assuming that Pavlik has regained at least a large portion of his abilities.
