What does it say about Pavlik's heart when all the other MW/SMW are fighting but him?

Brilliant response numbnuts. I issued a challeng that you could not meet, and proved you wrong. Did you ever consider handling that like a man instead of a 12 year old with turrets syndrome?

 

Just like the two "bums" Kessler fought since Calzaghe (he was supposed to fight Mundine for the vacant WBA title, but he moved down in weight)

 

Lockett would not get knocked the **** out by Raymond Joval, but Shannon Taylor did, and Taylor's next fight was Abraham's March 2006 title defense, and it went the distanceatsch

 

So now we have arthur haters propping up GARY LOCKETT and discreditting arthurs opponents. What about Rubio and zuniga and zertuche, **** put taylor in there while you are at it, what have they done lately?:huh

 

Both Pavlik and Abraham have to step up their competition.It is becoming a joke and obvious money grab by both their promoters.Both are as guilty as the other for not getting it on,IMO.

 

Abraham is going to fight the likes of Kessler, Taylor, ward and possibly dirrel. I only see one guy you mentioned "stepping up his competition".

 

It looks like Abraham's first fight at 168 will be Jermain Taylor. In case you didn't notice Pavlik already beat Taylor twice. So, AA is stepping it up by fighting Pavlik's left overs. However, I do think that's better than fighting Joval and McKart's left overs. Jermain Taylor IS a huge step up for Arthur. The problem is that if JT has anything left, he will embarass AA for 12 rounds. The only way Arthur wins this is if Jermain is ruined.

 

The worst thing that happened to Pavlik was Hopkins and he has been unwilling to risk since then, prior to that he and the team would take on anyone for the right price. Pavlik has all but disapperaed since then.

 

Are people on here ******ed? (Don't answer we know) He loses to HOF Hopkins defends his title (Mandatory(Rubio)-That's the guy the sanctioning body makes him fight, otherwise he loses his belt-I'll try and go slow) Top Rank lines up a Mora fight ( Pavlik doesn't want the fight) while KP is trying to negotiate his extension w/ Top Rank (That means he wants security going into his last fight, something any business man could understand)
Next they appear to have an HBO fight lined up w/ World Champ Felix Sturm until the money was so rediculous that even you would laugh! So just relax and a fall fight will happen! Then you can poke fun at whoever they choose and tell us how KP never fights anyone... (Repeat until he reires)

 

If Jermain fights the arthur that fought miranda in the states, this does not last more then 8 rounds. Best believe it:good

 

That's a rather silly comparison. Miranda has mediocre hand speed. JT has some of the fastest hands around the weight. Miranda has very sloppy offense. Jermain throws quick, precise, and powerful combinations. JT fought BHop X 2, Winky, and Pavlik X 2. Miranda's best win was Eastman way back in March of 2006. Miranda and Taylor were both big middleweights. Other than that they have NOTHING in common. Silly comparison.

 

We should make bets on this one. It makes sense though if it is true that Kessler will be fighting for Saurland though. He can 'risk' AA's career now.

 

Jermain can get to 'fumes' and AA could start going to the body.

 

I will not kick a man while he's down. Hopefully he pulls himself by his bootstraps and comes back.

 

Folks just don't want to face up to the business aspects of the fight game. I don't blame them in a way. When you have two guys going head to head, fight by fight, it is just much harder to ignore that aspect though. You can't start the next negotiations until your last fight is in the books because you just don't know what will happen.

Haven't seen jsimps for a while. He get fed up or are you guys doing tag team?
