    Anyone else think this fight would sell? It would be a good name on his record and might garner a bit of attention in the states. Plus at the moment Pavlik almost seems a bit desperate and would probably jump at any chance for a shot at the IBF belt.

    Geale can handle Robo-Pav, no problem.
    Good fight too.

    Yeah thats it, atm Pavlik ain't in his prime but the fight itself could be a entertaining one.

    IMO Pavlik was never all that - as soon as he came up against a technical boxer he fell to pieces and completely lost his confidence.

    His wins over Miranda and Taylor are what puit him in the spotlight, abut they were puncher's wins.

    Geale is much better than Pavlik technically - anyone who can avoid Pavlik's big punches can take him the distance and school him.

    Yerp, just like Hopkins did.
    Geale wouldn't do it quite as easy as Hopkins did, but he'd still do it.

    I think that's a sensational idea to get Pavlik over to Oz, very winnable fight for Geale and the exposure in the states will be great, Pavlik said recently he doesn't care about the money he just wants to get back fighting.

    I still believe Pavlik can win this...in really depends what sort of shape he is in.
    Bad shape & you would have to favour Geale.
    If he has a couple keep busy/getting active sort of fights & looks impressive i would back him to beat Geale.

    Oh Kegsy:patsch:-( He's done mate Hopkins took his soul. Martinez took his heart. He apparently can't make MW anymore and wouldn't fight with a guy called Daryl Cunningham for 50k even though it would have given him a guaranteed shot at Bute and 1 Million+ payday.
    He has promised to make it up to fans...........again.

    But Kegs he don't really love you he just keeps you hanging on. If this fight did happen Geale cuts stoppage in 9. Pavlik failing to come out for the 10th.:deal

    Yeah said he would be happy to fight for 10k.

    Im skeptical but good for him if true. And yeah good name for Gealey to have on his resume if KP could get back to MW.

    Geale does not stop Pavlik...:patsch:-(
    I honestly must not rate Geale as highly as you do.
    I highly doubt Pavlik can make 160 pounds anyways.
    Pavlik has the size/reach advantage by at least 2 inches & would outweigh Geale by minimum 5-7 pounds on the night at any weight.
    I doubt Geale can hurt Pavlik either so you never know.

    Also i didnt know a life & death match with Martinez meant his heart was taken...i think his heart was taken by Hopkins to be honest.

    Agree to an extent maybe I am venturing into the Sox zone with my Geale nuthugging but can easily see Geale wide UD. The fight was even after 7 but Sergio cut him up badly after that. I think Geale could do similar against him hes declined badly.
