Sturm is embarrassing himself talking all that **** about Abraham and then running scared of him. This fight with Pavlik is a toss-up, but Pavlik's camp will prefer it over Abraham, you can count on it.
Sturm may be exactly what Pavlik needs right now. He's a good boxer that would make Kelly work in order to land clean. Sturm may present a great learning opportunity withinut posing to much of a threat. And, in the larger scope of things, wouldn't it be better for Kelly to unify by beating Sturm AND Abraham, rather than just beating the winner of Sturm/Abraham?
