    That would be awesome. But Froch won't win the Super Six. No way is Showtime/Goosen going to let Ward lose. Froch is likely to get a DQ as he'll return Ward's mauling in kind.

    I don't think Pavlik will be ready for Bute after a single tune-up. He's had a long lay off coming off a bad loss and Bute is one of the best in the division. I say have three fights against guys like Andrade and Green and then step up to the top level.

    I'd like to see Pavlik fight three times this year; Vera, Green, Andrade.

    I'm getting on this train.

    Pavlik seems like a good guy, I think there's every chance he'll get another title shot.

    If he is successful then its an inspiration to other people with alcohol problems.

    Ok, I think he beats green at either weight. I would be very intrested to see him at 175. I wonder what that right hand would whip like? I wouldn't be surprised at all if he carried his power up.

    I think he'll carry his power up fairly well. He struggled to make 160 as early as 2006. He's not an old guy who was forced to move up by a changing metabolism. He's a young guy who was still growing long after he turned pro.

    without putting words in his mouth, and understanding that i'm too lazy off work and too busy at work to look it up, but i'm pretty sure jsimps was mentioning that even around the zuniga fight kelly was feeling it...

    actually i know it was. it was in reference to kelly telling jack in the corner during the martinez fight that he couldnt see and his legs were gone. jsimps said the same thing was happening (not the eyes obviously) during the zuniga fight.

    All I need to make up my mind is the video evidence. KP was much faster, a lot more mobile, and looked generally healthier early in his career.

    I'm board, more out of hope than anything else. He's a nice guy, and i like his style. Hopefully he stays healthy.
