    Or is he now a gatekeeper for the Super Middleweight Division? Vote and Discuss ..( R.I.P. Valero Family).

    well he'll get his chance if he does in fact invoke that rematch clause. and i still feel he stops sturm and sylvester.

    He can beat sylvester. Strum outboxes him.

    From some of the excuses being thrown out of his camp, about him barely making the weight, and his corner celebrating when he did, it tells me this is probably the last time we see him fight at 160.
    Unless it was all a load of bollocks lol

    Sturm is not a threat to Pavlik.........He needs to get his **** together or he will be a high paid gatekeeper.

    You can watch the weigh in yourself. I'm sure it is posted. I watched it live and later saw it again. I've seen pictures posted of him at the weigh in that he looks 'wet' in like he was working right up to scale time.

    I think he will, the division is not that talented.

    It sounds to me like most of you believe Kelly will stay at Middleweight, I disagree I think he probably will rematch but lose again and then move up to Super Middle where he will lose to any of the Super nine ( Bute) if he ever fought them. Making him a gatekeeper.

    he cant stay at 160 and at 168 the only elite he maybe beats is Froch and that is a big maybe.

    agreed:good. the sturm of the second griffin fight had a great jab but no way does he outjab pavlik (though who knows really...). sylvester doesn't really bring anything to the table

    he's always been big at the weight but can you really see him at 168?
