    Whoever says that pavlik would win 3 rounds much less win a fight with andre ward SHOULD NEVER BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY AGAIN. As for Kessler, he is a better version of pavlik in almost all aspects. Pavlik has that slower stiff power like froch. I think everyone in the super six whips pavlik except maybe abraham because of styles. Kelly's handspeed is on froch's level and might be slower dare I say LOL. Kelly is done with nowhere to go. Dawson, cloud and pascal and glen johnson would beat him in one sided fashion at 175. Bute wouldn't even waist his time on pavlik coming off a loss.

    Froch and AA would **** Pavlik up.

    Pavlik is no lock over Green either, though I'd make him the favorite.

    I could easily see Mundine boxing circles around Pavlik. And Froch stops Pavlik.

    Yeah 175..... the home of Chad Dawson.

    Dawson would take a **** on Pavlik's head.

    ALways loved Pavlik, his a real fighter.

    Think he could trouble AA a lot..
    Don't think MK is a good choice for Pavlik. Kessler is too strong...

    I rate Kessler as a much better fighter than Pavlik, but think this one could be a nightmare for Kessler due to styles and Pavliks solid punches. Kessler dosent fight well on the back foot and I think due to Pavliks punch and style he would get Kessler on the back foot. I hate typing this but think Pavlik by stoppage or corner retirement sometime after 8 rounds ill say Pavlik TKO round 10

    Wrong. Kessler is better at countering then he is at coming forward. Froch tried to "box" Kessler because he knew it was a bad idea to come at him and give Mikkel countering opportunities.

    The robot Pavlik comes at Kessler, and gets picked apart brutally. Kessler is faster, stronger, smarter, has a quicker jab, better movement, better chin, shall I go on?
