    Most of you Pavlik fans know me as one myself but Martinez has the style to really school him. Pavlik imo has a slim chance to win. He will have to box twice as good as the 2nd Taylor fight to win and think thats unlikely. Should be a great fight though

    If Martinez continues to circle the wrong way, continues to rush in haphazardly, and continues to drop his hands repeatedly, there won't be much of a "boxing match."

    I think you might be starting to underestimate Martinez a little here. Williams is faster than Pavlik and just swings wildly at the target; he's bound to catch you. It's difficult for a much more textbook boxer to pin down a guy who's as slick and fast as Martinez. His feet are quick enough for him to get away with low hands. I think Pavlik will stop him, but it's not going to be a walk-over by any means, unless KP is better than I think he is.

    Don't know. After the Cintron fight(which Martinez deserved to win) I don't doubt his abilities against someone who can punch. I mean you can have enough power to knockout a t-rex if you can't land, yer not winning.

    You completely misunderstood me, Boo. I meant KP doesn't land like Williams because he hits a helluva a lot harder than Williams...I didn't mean connect percentage. I thought I made that clear.

    I might not have articulated my thoughts very well. I do not think I am underestimating Martinez. I'm merely taking a few of his repeated mistakes, and considering how KP would respond. Sergio makes mistakes that could allow Pavlik to keep the fight from turning into a "boxing match." I think Pav will try to impose a rough and fast paced fight on Martinez. I'm thinking that if Pavlik can have things his way, he'll "act like the bigger man" and do more mauling and brawling than boxing.

    Sergio put in a very good performance against Williams, but Pavlik and Williams really do not have that much in common. I don't think Williams/Martinez tells us all that much about how Pavlik/Martinez will look.

    Let me give you an example of something I think is relevant. Watch the 5th round of Martinez/Cintron, and count the number of times Pavlik would have knocked Martinez out. Of course I'm not trying to suggest that one round says it all. I'm just giving you an example of the sort of thing I've been looking at.

    Martinez will keep landing left hand bombs. Let's hope for the good of boxing he wins and puts this ducking bum hunter away.

    Okay -- I did think you were referring to PW being more accurate, and such is not the case. PW throws tons of punches in bunches, but he's very sloppy. ****!! Margarito stood flat footed in front of Paul and slipped his jab repeatedly.

    So, a light middleweight with a 50% KO ratio against mostly questionable opposition is going to bomb Pavlik out?

    Get the **** out of here child. Grown ups are talking.

    If Pavlik could learn to through an Arguello-style left hook off the jab, the fight probably wouldn't last a round.

    I never said he would knock him out you inbred disgrace. I said he will keep landing bombs throughout. Whether it's enough to get the decision (if it goes 12) depends on how many bombs Pavlik lands himself.

    Considering the things Pavlik and Arguello have in common, if it were up to me, Pavlik would be literally living and breathing tape of Alexis!

    Martinez is SO open for that shot when he dives in to counter the jab. Stick it out there a little, bring it back, wait for him to try and step in and then - BOOM! - left hook. He's out of there. 0:55.
