    Am I the only AMERICAN that believes this? I cant see pavlik stopping Joe or winning a decision. Don't get me wrong, I wouldnt be shocked to see a Pavlik win but I would favor Joe.

    I think Joe beats him; but I think that it is a fight that should be made.

    it's fairly logical considering Joe's similar wins over Kessler and Lacy, and overcoming a spolier like BHop. Pavlik's only chance is if Joe declines very rapidly. No incarnation of Pavlik would've beaten the JC that showed up for Kessler.

    I'm with ya. Pavlik has no speed, no defense. Just power. He's the type of fighter that Calzaghe usually feasts on. I don't see what Pavlik can do that Kessler couldn't. Some posters here are just incredibly biased.

    I just don't understand why Joe gets so much hate or why some people think Pavlik will walk right through him. It makes no sense to me.

    Pavlik is a middle weight who relies on power, moving up a weight to fight a guy with a exceptional chin.

    Which is exactly why I cant see him stopping Joe. Hopkins knocked Joe down but he wasnt hurt.

    Apparently Joe does not believe the OP's assertion.

    He could have fought Kelly after Kessler. He chose Hopkins.

    if it's so obvious that Pav has no chance, why is he avoiding him?

    I'm not saying Pavlik has no chance. I'm just saying I don't see how anyone can make him the favorite.
