    Pavlik was drunk as **** (again) a couple of days ago. I smell Dre will be the first man to stop him.

    Not the ideal fight for KP. Can see him beating guys like AA and Bika and maybe even Froch in a war. Ward is made perfectly to outbox him in 12. Ward UD.

    Although I agree KP will loose these picks are a little out there. Kp has a good chin and Ward still isnt this KO King.

    Groves and Degeale who are climbing the ranks would be decent opponents. Chavev Jr when he moves up and a rematch with Froch if he beats Bute. And also Bute. There's enough there for him to take on before he moves up to LH.
     
  5. I'd rather see Pavlik v Froch which would be a war. Ward will easily outbox Pavlik in a rather dull fight.

    Yeah it obviously can not be a one punch KO, but maybe a TKO or a corner stoppage.

    I can't see this fight happening anyway to be honest.

    But hes already beaten Froch so easily.

    I dont see the point of a rematch

    Kelly Pavlik has been back in Oxnard training, and expecting to fight in late October/Early November. I've thought all along that he should jump on Rodriguez. Rodriguez is not great preperation for Ward, but that would be better than sitting for 7 months.

    Ward couldn't do that to Allan Green ffs. He KO'd Chad because Chad was dead at the weight.

    His IBF belt to unify. Pretty big point in my opinion.

    Its just a trinket, he doesnt need to beat Froch again and pick up that strap to prove hes the best in the division.

    The only interesting fight at 168 would be in Dirrell got himself going again
