    Pavlik UD, Pavlik's chin woulda held up to Abraham's punhches, he woulda made Abraham cover up alot Pavlik had legit power, i could see Abraham blocking too much like the Froch fight

    Pavlik was too versatile for him and Abraham didn't use his feet enough to force Kelly to re-set. Pavlik UD12.

    Brutal war that didn't happen because the promoters couldn't get along and make something work. Huge surprise, one of them was Arum, the other was Sauerland.

    I'd slightly favor Kelly. AA shelled up and gave too many rounds away .

    Kelly would out work Abraham to a wide UD win.

    Pavlik UD is the logical choice.

    Kelly would as he throws much straighter and more accurate punches.

    Think Pavlik catches him with something big when AA starts to open up in the later stages, either that or a wide decision for KP. In hindsight Wegnar really did **** up AA's chances of being anything more when he stepped up in class.

    Pavlik on points...AA just isnt busy enough to keep Pavlik off of him...With AA fighting in spurts, I dont see him keeping up with Pavlik down the stretch.

    pavlik, abraham would have no clue, he'd be hit by 1-2's repeatedly
