    Poor guy, Enzo I wish would retire. He can't let go...moving down to LHW, Bad move. The guy keeps getting knocked out now he wants to lose 25 pounds and fight.

    Exactly, this is such a bad move for him. But if he does move down Enzo vs Pavlik in the UK would be big.:yep

    Pavlik seems dead set on 168. For some reason the WBC has him #1, and he sounds like he is pulling for Froch to win the S-6. He called Froch "a really beautiful guy." He sounds like he wants to put together a couple decent wins, and meet Carl after the tourney.

    Did he really? Well that is a fight I would love to see. Froch struggled with the straight shots Taylor was throwing at him and Pav would be a bigger and better puzzle.

    You pretty sure his power carries well to '68 Boo? That's been a tough jump for middleweights to make recently. Granted, Kelly was a freaking huge middleweight...

    I think it is important to remember that Pavlik is not an old guy who was forced to move up by a slowing metabolism. He's a young guy who was still growing when he became middleweight champ. He was only 25 when he beat JT. He probably did not even have his full "man strength" at the time.

    I ****ing adore this ****. He's a likable mother****er and had a monster punch. If he could learn to deal with lateral movement he would be terrifying.

    He's got tremendous heart and an iron chin. What's not to like? I really wish the best for him, he's good for boxing.

    to be fair he's always trained hard though so i wouldnt expect dunkin to say anything to the contrary.

    wonder if he has a nutritionist :think he did prior to martinez when he was coming down from the 190s which is where he is now.

    I hope he does have a nutritionist. We're in 2011, he needs to play today's game. It will much more easier for him.
