IMO, A win over Bute automatically put's Pavlik directly in the mix @ 168lbs. (Skipping possibly what could have been another entire year worth of "Comeback" fights) Good business move by the BobFather. let's see if they pull this one off. An "L" tho sends Pavlik packing.
after seeing pavliks last fight he is no where near ready for bute, who is currently on top of his game. I'd say summer next year if pavlik gets a couple of good fights under his belt. I think it would be a great fight, but not this november.
