Anyone you'd give better than a 50-50 chance of beating Margarito?

    I just see both these guys just standing there brawling, throwing punches. And of course Pavlik hits hard as hell for a middleweight. But of course we've never seen Margo hurt. The question is can he sustain Pavlik punishment? If he can then we've got 1 helluva fight right here. I really cant say how this fight turns out. They should fight at a catch weight of exactly 160lbs.

    I would ove to see margo fight james kirkland, margo is massive for 147 and has fought at 154 before. Kirkland might have the power in his hands to put a dent in the margo jaw.

    It wouldn't necessarily catchweight since Pavlik fights at middleweight with the limit being 160. Therefore, Margo would need to jump of two weight classes (pass jr middleweight limit of 154) to face Pavlik. This may also be a title fight with Pavlik defending the WBC/WBO/The Ring Middleweight Championship. So in other words, you would most likely expect a Pavlik victory by KO if you had to call it?

    Yeah, my bad, what I meant to say is I want both fighters to weigh exactly 160 on fight night. And of course if I had to bet with my money, I gotta say Pavlik. But this fight would be a good fight for all the fans who dont appreciate skill.

    at 147 i only see floyd and oscar having an edge. floyd is elusive enough to stick around for 12 and oscar is big enough and good enough to survive 12.

    I think Williams has a chance, maybe Shane can get the job done.

    Williams recently schooled him, you act like it was a long time ago.

    i would agree normally but i think margo learned the benefits of starting the heavy pressure early by skipping the warm up rds. i dont think williams can evade him for 12.

    I can be wrong boxing is full of surprises as we witnessed first hand on last Saturday, but here is my three:

    Mayweather 75-25
    Clottey 60-40 (assuming he does not tire)
    Williams 55-45
