How far up in weight can Pavlik go?

I agree 160-175 should give him a busy career.

 

When he retires i think a very portly 255lbs would suit him..Nice big spare tyre round the waist

 

pavlik is in his prime right now i think 160-175 or perhaps up to cruiserweight

 

175 will be the highest weight where Pav can be effective.

 

I think he would be able to go up to 175.

Cruiserweight would be way too big as despite being tall, he isn't the biggest frame going around - if they did as I asked and moved the weight back to 190 there would be an outside chance.

I don't really see him being able to carry up his tools all the way up though, the things that make him a top 160lb'er won't make him top dog at cruiser!

You would have to be made to think otherwise!

 

I think he will easily be effective at 175. But not beyond that.

 

He can go all the way to heavyweight, but I don't think it's a good idea to go past 175.

 

Moving up could be a problem for Pavlik in terms of dealing with the speed and power of his opposition when he starts going in with opponents who are natural 168'ers and 175'ers. On offense it's debatable if he'll carry his power up, or if he'll be an effective or even devastating force like he is at 160, ect - but the main question for Pavlik is how much slower might he be once he gets up there, and how will he take getting nailed by the bigger boys. The kid has already taken a fair amount of blows at this stage in his career.

 

Light heavyweight should be the most, anything above that will be ridiculous.

 

This will probaly start a **** storm, but I think that if Pavlik makes the move up to 168 correctly, he will be just as dominant as he is at 160. If and when he moves to 175, I think he'll win at least one major title, and be a serious force to reckon with. However, in that division he'll see some losses against the upper echelon. All in all I think we will ultimately remember Pavlik as a solid 3 division champion, and Hall of Fame fighter, but probably not an ATG. But, Kelly is only 26 years old, and, obviously, the jury is still out

 

175 max!!

 

Damn good post. I'd be hard pressed to disagree with that.

 

190 i think....

 

No more then 175:good
