    Kelly Pavlik can't take flush bombs from me, nevermind King Arthur

    His first name being 'Kelly' has to be a major factor in this

    true to that:good

    Both are huge punchers and this is a war waiting to happen, I just hope that Pavlik disposes of Jermain Taylor first

    :good

    Abraham can't win on points but anything else is possible.

    33% Pavlik UD
    33% Pavlik T/KO
    34% Abraham T/KO

    I pick Pavlik, but it will be competitive. Abraham is no slouch.

    Pavlik by late KO. Abraham is tough as hell, but I don't think he will last 12 rounds, especially because he gets hit way too much and this will become more of a war than a technical match after the first half. They are on pretty much the same level boxing skills wise (if I had to favor one I would choose Abraham), but Pavlik has a big size/reach/power advantage and will probably win.

    I don't like how Abraham covers up and voluntarilly backs up to the ropes. Pavlik would do some damage when Abraham gets into the shell, but he would have to be careful of the explosive flurries that Abraham throws out of that shell.

    Maybe you mixed up the names - Pavlik is the guy who's getting hit with too many punches, not the other way around...
