    ye it is a deep division, and pavlik is a big enough name to get a quick title shot.

    i dont see him exercising the rematch clause vs martinez, he is just too damn big now. i heard rumour he wants to rematch at like 164 but martinez aint gonna do that

    nah if he can't make weight anymore then just move up to 168. There's at least 6 opponents he can face at 168 and make good money.

    exactly, but will his pride let him walk him away from the man who gave him a beating, that is the question

    Whoever wins, they'll probably target Sergio Martinez next for rematches.

    I think he will want a rematch since the super middleweight tournament won't be done for another year or so. He could still fight martinez or if martinez-PW rematch then he can fight the winner.

    I have a funny feeling that the Mayweather Martinez fight is going to happen. So that would leave the winner of this fight out in the cold for awhile, or if its Williams he could fight Berto. Pac is going to fight another Arum fighter meaning Margo or Cotto in a rematch. If Cintron wins he would have to settle for another belt holder at 154 or a rematch with Angulo, but that would come after a rematch with Williams if he wins.

    I don't know about anybody else but if Cintron pulls out the win tonight (and I don't think he will) I wouldn't be too keen on Martinez-Cintron II. Forgetting that whole knockdown/knock out controversy, Martinez won the fight convincingly on the score cards and the decision to call it a draw was ridiculous and one of the biggest recent robberies in boxing that I've seen.

    How about Cintron-Cotto if Cotto beats Foreman? or Cintron-Margarito III?

    For Williams a rematch against Martinez would surely be in order.

    If Paul wins tonight, he should call out Mayweather and see what happens. If that doesn't happen, Williams - Martinez II is the fight.

    maybe but i doubt it..i think he will look for an easier opponent. I wouldn't mind pavlik vs sturm.
