    It really wouldnt surprise me if Top Rank just sits pavlik on the sidelines till his contract runs out. This wouldnt surprise me. Honestly, I think his next fight will be on Friday Night fights or something like that.

    It's looking like he's going to leave Top Rank anyway. For some reason Arum never talked much about Pavlik, if anything he talked down on him during his interview about MMA and that was a year or so ago.

    Good riddance to him, i think he will never become a serious contender again.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Top Rank makes an example out of Kelly Pavlik. I wouldn't be surprised if he were put on the blacklist and no fighter wants to fight him.

    Froch wont touch him. Ward wont touch him. He's going to get treated like Martinez, Williams, and Wright. His

    Maybe Pavlik can pull a James Toney and try MMA.

    Pavlik would deserve it but based on Arum's statement it seems he care about to boy so he'll get another fight if - and it's a big IF - any major network take the risk of putting Kelly on screen with zero guarantee he won't pull out 3 hours before.
