    I never seen AA's fight with Simon, but if he was as bad as everyone seems to be saying, will that give Arum some encouragement to let Pavlik fight him?

    unless Arum creates a screename here quick, you won't be getting an answer that means anything.

    Taylor, horrible vs. WW Spinks --> Pavlik
    Taylor got KTFO vs. Pavlik --> rematch
    Lockett, never looked good --> Pavlik (mandatory)
    Hopkins, coming from Calzaghe loss, no stamina in 12th --> Pavlik (no comment)
    Rubio, split decision vs. E- level Ornelas --> Pavlik (mandatory)
    Mora, got schooled at LMW by Forrest --> Pavlik

    You see the pattern? I think this is a legitimate thread.

    Abraham-Pavlik HAS to happen this year. This is THE logical fight at MW.

    This is a very dishonest post and you now it.

    Taylor: undisputed middleweight champion of the world. Pavlik had to win TWO eliminators to get there.

    Taylor rematch: contractual obligation Dibella and Taylor demanded.

    Lockett: part of chasing a Calzaghe fight. Not a coincidence that Joe ran like a little ***** after he saw what happened to his stablemate and sparring partner.

    Hopkins: Bernard's idea when they were having trouble finding a fall opponent after Winky and Williams ducked KP and abraham had a mandatory against a guy who went life and death with McKart.

    Mora: not a done deal. NO ONE from Team Pavlik has said yes.

    Mora seems to be more worthy lately.

    Abraham struggles with an unknown club fighter, and you guys turn it into a reason to hate on Pavlik. You are ****ing pathetic; the whole lot of you.

    Honestly the "resume" chasing from either camp is very weak.

    Neither guy has an outstanding resume...the only difference is Pavlik beat "The Man" at 160 to get here. Since then neither one has done anything to separate from the other.

    Look at like this: Lajuan Simon, Marco Antonio Rubio, Gary "The Pocket Rocket" Lockett, Raul Marquez and Wayne Elcock have all had title fights recently. Explain to me how that's even possible.

    Both Pavliks title defenses have been mismatches and since winning the title he's had as many non-title fights at catchweights as actual defenses.

    It's your nuthugging thats ****ing pathetic.

    You guys have AA's **** so far down your throats that some how his poor performance against and unknown club fighter is a logic reason to bash Pavlik. KP fights guys like Rubio or Lockett and ****ing destroys them. Abraham fights guys like Ayala and Simon, and makes them look like decent fighters. But you use AA's poor perfromance as a reason for hating on Pavlik. That tells me everything I need to know abour your boxing knowledge and your personal integrity.

    FFS it's not even like Lockett or Rubio were credible contenders before Pavlik fought them. Lockett got KO'd in the third round and actually went UP in a lot of rankings after it because most people thought he wouldn't even last that long.

    Pavlik wins a title and defends it against ****ing bums so that he's more marketable when he's trying to get fights with the likes of Tito and you seem to think he's some ****ing war machine.

    You're all getting the **** taken out you by him and Arum but probably toss off over his picture every night.

    How am I pathetic?, what did I say there that could make me sound pathetic?

    Wasn't it publicly announced that a fight with Mora is in consideration?, I know it's not official but it's considered. If me believing that information makes me pathetic what does it make Pavlik and the people surrounding him?

    There was nothing in my post that could suggest I hate him too, sure I don't like him but where in that post does it prove I hate him?, I just mentioned what his own team brought up, nothing else.
