    KP is not overrated IMO. He is a boxer who loves his work, even when sick. He always makes the effort to give the crowd a good fight for their money. He doesn't talk smack, he just bangs in the ring. He's the epitome of a good boxer. And I actually had a lot more respect for him after seeing his fight with Hopkins. The man just kept going after the wiley old master, even though he knew he was being outboxed. Lots of mental toughness there.

    I completely agree.

    Before the Hopkins fight people were giving him P4P status and I didn't think he had done enough to earn that but now people seem to think what happenned against Hopkins is waiting to happen again and in reality I can't think of anyone else around his weight range that could do anything similar.

    Pavlik will go down as a one-hit wonder if he never beats anyone meaningful again.

    I just want to see Pavlik-Abraham this year because I think Arthur takes him! He's as strong as they come. Time is up against both guys in respect of them being able to make 160lbs for much longer!

    Sooner this one happens the better becasue clearly, both will be at 168lbs come next year!

    Abraham struggles badly to get down to 160lbs it is well known! Pavlik is not far behind him!

    Pavlik has been doing better with the 'diet'. He may need to move up to get meaningful fights though.
