    Are you talking about just US PPV numbers?

    Dawson V Hopkins
    Adamek V Hopkins
    Pavlik V Abhram
    Vitali V Wlad
    Wlad V Haye
    Vitali V Haye
    Froch V Kessler

    Maybe they're not all that big US PPV, but they'd generate a good deal of excitement.

    Yeah I think that Pavlik- Paul Williams will also generate OK.

    Ya i know what you mean, i was just trying to list the biggest fights i could think of.

    If Haye fought a couple of contenders and was winning convincingly then his fights with the Klits could be very big. HW fights always get casual attention.

    If he was to beat Chambers or somebody in the US it would excite things.

    Pavlik v Paul Wlliams would be an awesome fight.

    Damn Williams is a bad ass. He'd fight Pavlik, tap that ass then move down to 147 to tap Pac's ass too but you KNOW Pac and the rest of WW don't want none!

    Crazy stuff.

    i really like williams too...seems like a class act. but he has to show me he can take a flush power shot from a true 160lb banger and still keep up his work rate before id give him a shot against pav

    He seemed hurt at the end which is possibly normal after being hit with bricks :). Just for the record Clottey said that Margo punches looked normal in their fight and he didn't think Margo used the plaster in their match. That said I'm not sure that Margo has used the plaster in all his recent matches!

    Santos was hitting Margarito with absolute bombs in their bout and Margarito was enjoying it I think.
