    Exhibition as in... now? Golovkin would brutalize him.

    Prime vs prime... I lean towards Pavlik by UD.

    Back when Golovkin was an undefeated monster... I thought this was a hard matchup for him and I gave him the edge but wanted to see Golovkin in with a top tier opponent before I really stood by a pick either way.

    After seeing Golovkin fight Jacobs... and how he reacted to Jacobs size, strength and power, I feel I was right in this being a bad matchup for him and now I give the edge to Pavlik.

    I think Pavlik backs him up and is able to edge him in rounds. Pavlik was a big middleweight with big big power and I just dont think Golovkin has the style to really counter that.

    The better technique, punch selection and chin would see GGG through in a tough fight. I think Pav un ravels and takes a pasting late or GGG seals the victory late for a pts win. Pavlik was not right against Hopkins imo

    Oxymoron isn't it? If you are trying to KO your opponent than that's a fight or one of them didn't read the script.

    Pavlik wasn't nowhere near as schooled as GGG and GGG is at least just as tough as Pavlik. I really liked Kelly, but this isn't a good matchup for him. Stylewise Kelly would be favored against Jacobs and 50/50 with Canelo (although I'd like to give Kelly the edge in that one)

    In their respective primes, GGG by decision, he is quite a bit better technically.

    Pavlik imo bangs Jacobs out in 8, he coud be hurt, but hes coming right back in to it . Canelo v Pavlik has the ingredients to really catch fire, I think Pav keeps it long with Canelo having the mid range success when he gets it close, got to lean with Pav with the length he has on Canelo though

    He is, but Pav makes it really hard for him at times, he's taking rounds

    Yes, in fact it could go either way. But I tend to lean to the better technical fighter in most of these 50-50 match-ups

    Is pavlik roided on beef PEDs and does he have judges in his pockets?
