Arum, Pavlik/Abraham Jan 31 (tentative) then Kelly moves up. Calzaghe?

I think that JC vs Pavlik is a surefire fight for the future but as for anything being agreed I doubt it dude

 

Damn who isnt Arum saying that Pavlik is fighting. I think that is about the 10th person that Arum has him fighting over the next 8 months.

Kelly is going to be a busy man

 

I doubt all this although Pavlik-Abraham may happen but by this time Calzaghe would have retired or developed more than enough ring rust to be mangled by Pavlik(who would probably be hitting his prime)
If Joe beats Popkins the best thing he could do is NOT call out Pavliik and just ride into the sunset a champion that all would recognize. If he fights Pavlik he will be destroyed...sorry Joe fans but it would happen, here or there, it doesnt matter..
Pavlik KO10

 

Joe wasn't even phased by Kessler or Lacy's power, I doubt Pavlik would even hold up for all 12. I also doubt Joe, who's the bigger money maker of the two, would agree to go back down to 168. It's just hype talk.

I could see Sturm finally agreeing to fight Pavlik in September, rather than losing his title for less money against Castijello-Sylvester-(what ever happened to the Griffin rematch?) After that it looks like the winner of Rubio-Lopez will be his WBC mandatory.

If Kelly makes it to Abraham, my money will be on Abraham. Kelly's been too chinny and Arthur hits harder than anyone at this weight.
