    Boo has laid down the challenge on this. You make the claim yet have no numbers to back them up? Yeah, right........

    The only credible post I've seen said the German money was off the table. But, go ahead. Give us the numbers of the "US cash + EU cash". This should be enlightening. :nut

    Froch often comes in well underweight for his fights. I believe he was 166 for Pascal? I might be wrong though....

    Still I understand what you're saying the lower the weight the more advantage Pavlik has.

    There's your point, plus Pavlik has fought at 162-166 way more than he has fought right at 160. I think his absolute optimal weight right now is about 164. I'm just saying the same thing I've said about Pac/Cotto: if ya want to fight in a given division, don't ***** about the damn weight limit. And don't go making up your own weight class.

    So now that AA moved up, Pavlik comes out of the hiding. Unfortunately for him froch already signed on for the tourney, so it's back to the tomato cans....

    Good man. I see you are willing to put up the purse to make Pavlik/Abraham happen? No? :nut

    Would love to see these fights come off. . .would really revive the boxing buzz which has been lost lately with the collapse of setanta. .p.s i leaning to pavlik by k.o after around 9 rounds of a war.

    Maybe Enzo Calzaghe bought a 300 million dollar house boat and Joe is considering a comeback to pay for it?
