    If I had to guess, I'd say anywhere between 1 and 5. Leaning towards the former though.

    think miranda, times ten.

    an untamed brawler who's coming for your heart, and we all know the problems miranda caused abs.

    got it on dvd. watched it many a time, pavlik got the discipline and know how to withstand that sort of benn onslaught?

    this is a guy who went 10 and beat the g-man, not jermaine "average/powderpuff" taylor.

    Really? A guy who got up from a series of bombs from Mclellan? A guy who took what Eubank had to offer and who destroyed Barkley?

    You think someone who went down more than once to G-Man (one of the biggest punchers the division has ever seen) and got back up and fought on, would be KO'd by Pavlik?

    Let me get this right, you think Pavlik hits harder than G-Man? And so much harder that Pavlik could starch Benn with one punch?

    Believe if Benn landed on Pavlik like Taylor did, it's over.
