How will Pavlik handle the weight? 10 pounds above his ordinary fighting weight. Seems like the guy is fighting everywhere but his own division! I'd say if he handles the weight alright he should get the better of B-hop. As impartial as I try to be I really don't like B-hop. I hope Pavlik becomes 'white boy' #2
Pavlik & dawson for mine. Bhop just doesn't throw enough punches these days & pavlik is right in his prime & looked good in beating taylor in the rematch, his jab was awesome & I hate tarver with a passion so I have to support anyone that fights him. The way he pumped himself up after KOing roy with his eyes closed. I wish roy had the nerve to mix it with him in the 3rd fight, he would have won I believe.
