    I believe 2 out of 3 favored Golovkin almost 2 years ago. So it's probably about 80% now.

    Gloveking KO around 7

    Nah I doubt it Kelly was a tough SOB. If it was a stoppage it would be due to a cut not getting koed.

    Pavlik was a tough SOB and at this point the more proven champion so it would have lasted the full 12. However I think Golovkin has the goods and visually looks much more skilled to me, so Golovkin in a 8-4 type of victory.

    Tough fight to call. Could go either way. Right now I favor Pavlik by a little but I need to see more of GGG against better competition.

    GGG is ten times the fighter Pavlik could ever hope to be, GGG by KO

    Golovkins hasnt showed me enough at this point to pick him over a prime pavlik. Would need to see how he handles a big powerful fighter who will come at him and has a good chin.

    With all the b class fighters GGG has fought, I'd favor pavlik prime for prime.

    Pavlik was BIG…tall, long, good jab and thudding power. Prime pav who beat Taylor and miranda was such a *****ing beast!

    This would be a hard hitting and absolutely great fight. Man idk..my gut reaction is prime pavlik but ….but, idk. HE's too big.

    Golovkin would have no answer for the "double jab"!



    Wink, wink...

    I liked Pavlik but I think Golovkin would absolutely destroyed him. Pavlik is too easy to hit clean and he also needs to plant his feet to punch so I think GGG would have an easy time avoiding his big right hand. Pavlik might take the first couple of rounds but I think he would get KO'd by the mid rounds.

    Taylor isn't a big puncher and had him on ***** Street in the 2nd round of their first fight, I can only imagine what Golovkin would have done to him.
