    Too many question marks with Charlo at this point. Right now Pavlik is too accomplished at the weight class to make it a fair comparison so yes right now I'd favor Pavlik, but I think Charlo has the potential to surpass Pavlik.

    Good fight depends on who can establish their jab IMO. Both can punch and both are tough.

    don't answer, because that's a joke question that doesn't actually play in to how boxing works. But THAT question is asked here all the time. :lol:

    :lol: yeah. Was just messing around. Wouldn't count out Charlo though. Pav was tough, but not always there.

    He'd have a very hard time with Pavlik at this point. But everyone else currently at MW would as well. Pavlik was so steady with his jab, forward progress and heavy handed pressure. And he was durable.

    The first time I watched Pavlik was against Hopkins, and I believe that was the start of a very sudden and ungracious fall from his prime so I won't comment. Charlo looks decent to me, and I'd pick him to beat the post Hopkins Pavlik that I watched live.

    Pav v Hops was at 170 to be fair. But yeah, Hops schooled him badly.
