Iran gets busted up from the kinds of punches Pavlik throws and the ref waves it off the second half of the fight.
Two huge MW . More like LHW. Pavlik had a better chin and recuperative powers. A brutal slugfest with Pavlik prevailing by tko in 7 rds.
Pavlik would damage the face of Barkley seriously .His corner would pull him out sometime before the 9th.It won't be a walk in the park for Kelly though ,he'll have to soak up some of Iran's leather first.
Pavlik reminds me of a white Barkley, what with the those long arms, massive weight cutting, same general build... very much similar in that regard.
Really bad matchup for The Blade. Would be a war, but Pavlik would have been too much for Barkley. Pavlik TKO 10
