    I think Pavlik dominates AA, but not by stoppage.

    Abraham has an amazing heart, but Kelly's workrate will eat him up.

    AA has a puncher's chance, in my opinion.

    Without multiple knockdowns, or a KO I don't see Arthur winning.

    Kelly is just too busy. (similar to how I felt Calzaghe/Hopkins would pan out)

    Abraham doesn't like overly aggressive guys, Pavlik doesn't like great counter-punchers with a tight defense.

    Absolutely a classical matchup. This should happen... depeding on both guys next fight, I'll make a prediction a few months from now. I like both and pure instinct would say Abraham outboxes him with beautiful counter-punches, but the same fight I see could turn out in favor of Pavlik due to his aggression...

    This is the ONLY meaningful fight at 160 and it's a monsterous fight.

    I'd say he prefers them to defensive/slick runner types, he looks woeful against them

    Pavlik as a fighter plays right into his hands

    I'm kinda torn on this, I can see Abraham laying him out with one of those uppercuts, but also Pavlik outworking him for a decision.

    It'll be a good fight, I'll be staring at my watch till they make this one happen. I can't see Abraham landing one of those uppercuts to Kelly's head though, he's too tall.

    Anyways, I'd take Pavlik over Abraham.
