Kelly Pavlik vs Arthur Abraham: Who Wins and have his career back?

Pavlik UD

 

With three consecutive losses at 168 and AA saying he is staying you really have to wonder what his plans are. The fight only makes sense for Kelly if he KO's or looks like a monster against AA. Fighter a, b, c doesn't always work as we know but it would give the talking heads something to debate. It would be a good win for AA but again the talking heads will say Kelly hasn't done squat at SMW anyhow. It is a definite under card fight in the states so there won't be much money in it here and I don't know that Kelly would go to Yurrup for this particular fight. With no sanctioning bodies involved there would be too much of a risk of 'home town' bias in the judging. I just don't see this happening at this point.

 

Honestly, it could be a Main Event in Atlantic City

 

Kelly easily. KP will be elite soon enough again. More power than anyone at 168, with the possible exception of Froch.

 

The poll has this fight at about 70-30. It's a public poll so I looked to see who voted how. If you disregard the usual Pavlik haters who would vote against him no matter who the opponent was, Abraham has about 15% of the vote. That makes a much more accurate poll. AA would have about a 10-15% chance of pulling off an upset.

 

Pavlik vs Kessler makes the perfect sense and a better fight since Kessler gets to fight whoever is the wbc champion at supersix and Pavlik is the wbc number 1 contender. So why not Pavlik vs Kessler? If it happens my money is on Kessler.

 

After some videos i watched on froch, he is quicker but definitly not Stronger than kelly.. IMO the Best he looked against AA was The Combos he Threw that DID NOT LAND! Kelly Could beat froch, at least TKO him, froch doesnt get hit That much but if Kelly Catches him its NIGHTY NIGHT

 

It would be fun to dredge up the old polls that had it the other way around....

 

I'd like to see that fight, I think Pavlik stops Kessler late though.
