now that de la hoya and mayweather are retired, whos the face of american boxing? is it pavlik? williams?
So is Arran. Anyway, "IF" Arreola could actually become heavyweight champion of the world he'd be a very big attraction especially among the hispanic community. Although that's a very big "IF".
Floyd Mayweather. He gets most of the hype, most of the media and everyone is anticipating a comeback. After that, I think CHad Dawson has the style, skill and demeanor to reach the top of the boxing world.
Line of the day. Bravo! Why not decide it in the ring: winner of Pavlik/Williams. [Question: will HBO actively discourage Pavlik/AA to try to ensure this all U.S. matchup happens? :think ] Since that might be a ways off, we can declare Arreola as interim champ and Mayweather and champ in recess. I'll leave it to the WBA to declare a Super Champion. (Damn, they'd probably make it Ruiz!)
This could still happen if Pavlik loses to AA as Abraham will step up to 168 win or lose vs. Pavlik...this fight should be the main priority - Williams will still be there for a few years to fight Pavlik...
