    Sakio Bika stated that he wants big fights now and wants 2 prove himself and would like Kelly Pavlik to travel to supermiddleweight to face him for his IBO Supermiddleweight championship and Bika also said hes open to a catchweight as well

    So who wins this fight? and how do u see this fight playing out?

    Pavlik is apparently into making big money right now... money that a fight with Bika wouldn't provide. So don't hold your breath because this fight is never gonna happen.

    It could happen, Bika is pretty well known thanks to "The Contender" reality series. I say this fight would draw more than a fight with Sturm. Would Kelly move up? is the question. This next few months is gonna decide what type of fighter Kelly is.

    ****! good idea!!!! I'd have to go with Bika - he's trade with Kelly and it naturally very very big.

    Because Bika is a SMW whose currently ranked in the division. Mora is JMW who just got schooled by an oldman.

    This is the best fight Pavlik can make right now and the only one I would watch apart from Pavlik vs PW

    Mundine VS Pavlik would be great...I would see that before I would see Bika VS Pavlik.

    LOL?

    Who else? Big money? The only ones where the fight would be big enough to warrant world wide interest are the Super Six. And perhaps Bute.

    Outside of them Bika is a good option imo.

    Knowing Pavlik... what you say sounds more like an argument for why he would take Mora.

    Bika is a rough ride for anybody, plus I actually think he has underrated speed. He ain't a pure slugger like Miranda either, he can handle himself on the outside and inside he is a tough nut to crack. Can't imagine Pavlik going for this fight at a catchweight, why would he? It's a tough fight and he's a middleweight, Bika isn't a name that is going to make you jump out of your seat and move up in weight.

    Would be a good fight though.
