    Hmmm...elite? Who said elite?

    Calzaghe....A = elite

    Kessler....A- = borderline elite

    Pavlik....B+ = top world class

    Abraham.....B = very good/ good world class

    Froch....B- = world class

    A great fighter beats a very good fighter, usually, unless it's because of a major style disadvantage, right?

    Even his strong nuthuggers (ME!:D ) never call Pavlik elite, but your gonna suggest he lose to AA because he beat Elcock and got Ayala out of there with :28 to go in the 12th??

    Your supposed to know a thing or 2 about boxing. Can't you see that AA is a haymaker throwing fool & I highly doubt that will get it done against KP. So Pavlik isn't on an elite level? Even with his convincing display's KO'ing Miranda & then Taylor? What more do you need? As far as I'm concerned, he's elite enough to have never lost & over 90% KO's isn't something to ignore.
    Go ahead & keep thinking that way. I love watching all the Pavlik non-believers eating crow...Youngstowns style.

    Pavlik beats the utter **** out of Abraham in a fight that is going to end in the mid rounds. Abraham may get a knock down possibly early.

    I have been saying this since the Miranda fight. Abraham is wild, his technique is horrible. He does have power but he is lazy. Pavlik would just beat the **** out of him.

    I'm sorry to say... but if Abraham's technique is horrible then what word would you use to describe Pavlik's skill level... because it's far behind compared to Arthur's...

    :huh:huh:huh:huh World Class? You realize Ayala lost to David Banks twice. Pavlik is going to pick AA apart with Jabs followed by straight rights. I really don't think KP loses, AA would have to get really lucky.

    Since when did Froch become "World class"?

    Pavlik via KO mid to late rounds, in a competitive fight.

    Abraham by TKO/KO
    Pavlik can't knock abraham for **** so thats outta the question,
    Only way i see pav winning is UD that is if he doesn't get knocked out by the king :D

    Pavlik by KO. abraham gets hit way to much and pav brings the pain. Pretty easy win for pav imo

    My Hearts with Abraham, but I got to go with Pavlik based on logic.

    Abraham was not even knocked down as of today. And he is not a runner. That is not a sign of somebody who gets hit too much.

    Pavlik, on the other hand, is intimately familiar with the canvas, for all the good qualities he has.

    It will not be a walk in the park for him. AA does fight back.

    Pavlik did own Taylor, and knocked out Miranda. Prior to that he had nothing special compared to AA competition, with the exception of Zuniga, who did put him on his ass, and was ****ed up by a cut.

    I like Pavlik - but "easy win"? Overrating.

    Probably Pavlik by KO or TKO, but is would be on Hell of a fight while it lasts.
