Pavlik: "I'm Targeting The Winner Of Williams-Wright"

If that's true, then I guess Winky found himself a new tune-up fight.

 

Don't be surprised if it is put off until late summer or early fall. Arum rightly believes that Pavlik/Abraham should be a BOXING EVENT rather than just a great fight the hard core fans want to see. Top Rank and Sauerland have already opened negotiations. I think they are looking to put AA and KP on the same show against decent opponents before they fight each other. These thing deserve a huge build up.

In addition, Pavlik has wanted to "smack Winky around the ring" for a very long time. There is a long history there that I am not going to recite right now.

 

Focus on winning this fight first KP, then unify, then look around for other fights

 

Pavlik would beat Williams but Winky if he is 80% of before he should beat both.

 

LMAO


heeeellllllll no! be clear....Paul Williams and Jermain Taylor are my two Favorite fighters to date, but in no way is Williams a southpaw version of Taylor. lol

 

Your comments, and people that actually agree with you, over rate him. This ain't no Carlos Quintana, or Verno Phillips, or even Antonio Margarito we're talking about here. This is Winky f-ing Wright. The same Winky Wright that beat Shane Mosely twice, the same Winky that shutout Felix Trinidad, the same Winky that most people believe beat Jermain Taylor, and the same Winky that gave Bernard Hopkins a much more competitive fight at a comparable catchweight than Kelly Pavlik did. The same Winky that was #2 P4P fighting at 160 up until that fight and who's now been resting for a year and a half. Even if he is able to somehow pull off the monumental upset, the idea that Paul Williams should be favored or even stands a chance against him should be banned. The only thing I see here, if this fight indeed does happen, is Winky landing a tune-up that pays a bit better than fighting some no-name on FNF.

 

Does this mean that Pavlik is officially ducking AA?

 

It means his opponents have gone from MW-SMW-LHW down to LMW-WW

Playing it more safe which is wise but Williams and Wright are boxers whereas Pavlik is a puncher

 

I like Williams in this fight...Winky will be in his shell all nite and Paul will throw 100+ punches per round..PAUL BY UD--NOBODY IS KNOCKING OUT WINKY WRIGHT--A+++ DEFENSE...

 

I hope Williams gets to fight Pavlik. Winky hasn't fought in a year and a half and if Williams can look about the same from 147-160 I think he could pull it off. If Winky hasn't slipped he'll be a worse matchup for Pavlik. Not to mention a ugly fight.

Which southpaws has Pavlik faced so far?

 

It's also the same Winky that beat a prime McKart X 3, and in those days Bronco was a rough ****ing night for anybody at 154.
