    Pavlik schools him, his jab was too strong and his adaptability is off the charts. No matter what type of look Jones gave him, Pavlik would find a way to score with that jack hammer jab.

    Kelly KO in 4 and I'm being nice to Roy.

    Being nice to Roy. If Pavlik threw the DOUBLE jack hammer jab, Jones would probably go out in a stretcher.

    In my recollection, there have been far more nonsensical threads than this one. Actually, it's a rather plausible matchup.

    When you've had a split in opinions like this it shows that it's a serious thread.:D

    Jones by UD, and I'm giving Pavlik the benefit of the doubt.

    I'm going with Jones..on a bloody stoppage in 8. A very bad matchup for Pavlik.

    All Pavlik has to do is land one punch on that fragile Glass Jaw and it is over. Pavlik is tall enough with enough of a reach and a good enough Chin to be able to land on Jones who could not handle adversity, has no plan B, and has an abysmal Glass Jaw.

    Pavlik is completely unprepared and blown away with the unpredictability and speed of Roy.

    Jones TKO6-9

    Don't know if Jones would stop him, Pavlik was a big MW with a very good chin. I don't much hold the Taylor knockdown's against him, as he seemed to be trying to do some "hands down you didn't hurt me bull****" when he went down. :lol:

    A far more shopworn Taylor also floored Froch who's chin is pretty damned good as well.
