    P.W. is a good fight, but can he handle being hit by Pav. I hope Pav comes back stronger after this extended vacation. With a new wife and new baby, new home (with a newly made pond), hes probaly ready to get back to work.

    That fight has been announced for about two months...

    but don't tell the guys who seriously demanded AA relinquish his title to fight Karmazin for a shot at Pavlik, their world might collapse.

    AND: next in line for Zbik/Spada is new WBC International Champ Dmitry Pirog, not Karmazin or Pavlik. AA would have waited a year to get an interim title shot... :lol:

    The Rubio was a decent test for Pavlik, especially coming off a horrible loss, he needs to take on the best...and he hasn't. He could have fought Abraham, but he has ducked him so Abraham is moving up. The next best thing for Pavlik is to fight Strum or Williams if he moves up to 160.

    He isn't going to take the fight if the money isn't there. THAT is the problem right now. HBO won't even put up a decent purse for Pavlik/Sturm. You think it is going to be much more for Pavlik/Abraham? They shot their wad on Mayweather/Marquez which had to be moved back due to ticket sales. Excuse me. Injury.

    Here is a guy who has been busy being forced to fight mandatories. Pavlik is free now, so hopefully he can be involved in a big fight.

    Who the **** did Abraham even beat? Mahir Oral, LuJaun Simon, and Evlin Ayala do not qualify Arthur to wash Pavlik's car. The best offer Sauerland made was $1 million short of what Pavlik made for Gary Lockett! Ducked my ass! Sauerland was NEVER serious about making the fight.

    Pavlik needs to fight the best but hasn't:patsch I guess Oral and Simon must be better fighters than Jermain Taylor and Mr Bernard ****ing Hopkins.

    So far, since Pavlik won the Titles on Sept. 29th, 2007, he's had ONE voluntary fight. Mr. Bernard "mother ****ing" Hopkins....at LHW no less. Pretty sure that was a BIG FIGHT.

    So, the rematch with Taylor and a fight with Hopkins weren't big fights?

    Where did I say that Abraham has fought the best? This isn't about Abraham's opponents this is about Pavlik and he has ducked Abraham. Abraham has said that he wants Pavlik, would fight him in his living room, and fight him in the U.S. If you want to talk about Abraham's opponents then I will and he doesn't have an impressive resume either.

    Also, I never said that Oral amd Simon are better than Taylor and Hopkins. So, I really don't know what you are reading, but don't try and put words in my mouth. :patsch

    abraham spouting off after a fight (he also called out odlh:lol:) and he and his camp seriously getting into the nuts and bolts of a pav fight are two totally different things...

    Abraham also offered to fight Sturm for free. Sturm accepted. Still waiting. :yep

    This is about money. This is the ONLY thing keeping this fight from happening. :deal
