They are in negotiations with Abraham. The MW division being what it is, that is the best the could do money wise because of Mora's name recognition. And read the rest of the thread. Not like Arum isn't trying to make better fights. And before you just try and slag off with an Arum comment, watch him and Pac at the end of Pac/Hatton. Read the thread about Dan Rafeal's piece after the fight with, Arum brining a senator and his family to meet Pac. Fighters go to him because he knows his business.
Pavlik is the WBC and WBO Champion. Mora is a stay busy fight while Arum and Sauerland negotiate Pavlik/Abraham for November. Here's the top 10 for WBC and WBO. You're the promoter. Now pick a guy who can put asses in seats for a Summer "stay busy" fight. WBC Top 10 1. Domenico Spada (Italy) 2. Sebastian Zbik (Germany) 3. Mahir Oral (Turkey-Germany) MEDITERRANEAN 4.

who gives a ****!!!!! I like kelly but he might as well retire there aint nobody good enough for him to fight anymore.......and **** segio mora's boring ass
Hermit why are you getting riled up, just stating my opinions. If you really want me to answere your questions there ARE better available fighters like: Koren Gevor, Sylvester, Mundine, Gaele and Gevor will give a better fight then MORA! I am not in any way stating they will beat Pavlik but to say other then AA, there are not many fighters is not true. Again I want to repeat these names are not going to beat pavlik and I dont even know if they are available but CAN happen if pushed on the negotiation table.
Oh my God, we have two battling threads over a terrible fight that isn't even happening. This is excellent.
I don't think your opinion was too objective. I just don't see AA's competition better than KP's. Even AA's trainer was upset with his performance against Simon so let's not try and make Simon sound more credible. Again, these fights MIGHT be better but will they bring more money while they negotiate AA? None of these guys are as well known in this market as Mora. Mora just had two fights with Forrest and brings his contender name recognition. People remember names if they hear them enough.
So maybe Pav should go and fight "Joe the Plumber":good Good name recognition. Same chances of winning the fight. They could fight for the Ohio Boxing Championship.
