Floyd Mayweather would have beat the living dog **** out of kelly pavlik

You can also tell that he's never gotten fully accustomed to 147. He's no where near as mobile and fluid with his combinations at 147 as he was at 140 and below. So 154 was really pushing it, and 160 is completely out of the question.

 

Floyd would pot shot the UD no problems.

 

I doubt Floyd would be as successful against Pav as you think, despite Pav's issues with defensive, slick boxers. Floyd is barely acclimatized to 147. His best fighting weight is still140 imo. He's a small guy.

On the other hand, Pav should be fighting at 168. Hell, he could possibly campaign at 175 successfully. That's if his team believed in his ability. That kind of size difference would affect Floyd's effectiveness, even though he has a dramatic skill advantage. We have weight classes for a reason.

Don't discredit what Maravilla was able to do to Pav. The guy is bigger than Mayweather, but still not a true Middleweight. He made it look easy to beat Pav, but he presents a different matchup against him compared to Floyd. It's not that simple to compare.

Pav had started landing in those middle rounds and doing well. Maravilla just imposed his will from Rd 9 onward.

 

That's what he would have to do to win.

 

pavlik would land bombs on him at 160 . this fight would never happen tho

 

He's stronger now then he was when he fought Baldomir and Hatton. He outmuscled Musloey which nobody expected. Which is from his body continuing to get bigger.

But yeah 160 would be too much.

 

What's with the recent obsession with pitting up short guys against bigger dudes?

Williams-pac
Cotto-Williams
Floyd-Pavlik

 

I've been saying this for years, and even before Hopkins beat Pavlik to pieces.

 

May/Pav is about a once a month feature here.

So, let me trot out my old worn out line,

If May thought he could have beat Pav for the lineal MW championship he would have done so.

This is getting tedious.

 

I tall orthodox boxer with a jab? A career MW?

Not likely.

 

Floyd will always beat guys he would never dare to fight in real life!

 

Floyd "coulda woulda" Mayweather Jr. certainly could have beat Pavlik.

 

What ****ing business did JMM have at WW?


How many fights did he have at Junior Welter, I forgot?

 

LMAO!!! Floyd is having trouble fighting fighters his own size, yet he is beating a massive 160 Middleweight in Pavlik. LMAO! :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl
