    Yea that makes sense and let Goosen miss a trip to be there for his fighter Andre Ward for his biggest fight of his career against Kessler in a smw tournament on that same date on showtime. Man you have all plan out huh?

    Goosen is doing the right thing by trying to keep Paul busy. Staphyloccocus Aureus is one of the nastiest bacteria on earth. If it turns in to the methycillin resistant strain, it could be even worse. This is a dire situation for Pavlik, and could even lead to amputation, or death.

    The worst thing about staph is that the average person with no medical background will tend to treat it as a minor annoyance, like any other minor infection. Most people simply do not understand that this **** is deadly. There have been cases where the victim seemed fine at bedtime, and was dead before morning.

    My point here is that regardless of what was said and done in the past, we now know for sure that KP has a serious problem with a recurring staph infection. Depending on how much damage the knuckle already sustained he could be looking at a skin graft, or even an amputation. That means we have absolutely no idea when he can fight again, if ever.

    I'd like to see him against Sergio. I think it'd be a good, tough matchup for both - plus Serg deserves a shot at something big.

    The Sturm fight is less likely to happen, he's in a controversy with his promoter and until that's settled out i don't see a Sturm-Williams fight. Not to mention he's been protected by Universum for most of his professional career, Williams would be a big step up in class from the Koji Sato's and Euro bums Sturm has been fighting.

    Williams vs. Mosley i would like to see, or even Martinez.

    Why is Dzinziruk winning on this poll? Yeah I have not seen enough of this guy and would like to see him get a fight here in the States, but over Williams vs Mosley? You guys are kidding me right?

    The only Europeans Sturm has fought in the last ten fights are Sylvester and Castillejo. Maybe Gevor, if you want to say Armenia is in Europe. They are bums? Or did you mean to say 'American and Australian bums'?

    Dzinziruk wouldn't be my first pick for PTP either but he's an undefeated champ at 54 with wins over Santos and Julio so if Williams were able to defeat him, it would significantly strengthen his resume.

    I think it will be better if he fights at 160 since the Pavlik fight isn't completely off the table. That's unless Cintron decides to move up to make it happen.
