Whats with the yanks and Kelly Pavlik??

Tell me about it. He's on P4P lists above the likes of Vasquez and other fighters with great records against better fighters (just one's you don't hear about everyday)...

They seriously think he's the best thing since oxygen sometimes and he's like fighter of the year etc etc...

Credit where credit is due, but c'mon. Be serious.

 

i hear what your saying but the fact of the matter is that he is the best middleweight in the world... partly because it is a weak division and partly because of his raw power and style. The only person i could see beating him at middleweight is possibly Winky - his defense might really frustrate Kelly. I think he would plough through Abraham and Sturm is a stinker. I have him in the top 20 p4p for sure but i agree with you that he isnt in the 10 - let alone above JC and Israel Vasquez

 

I have Pavlik behind guys like Israel Vazquez on the Pound4Pound lists.
Still tho he is borderline top 10. He is an all action fighter, who whether you like it or not had a awesome 2007.
Beat top 15-20 contender Zertuche back in January, beat a legitamate top 5 contender in Edison Miranda & then beat the recognized Middleweight world champ Jermain Taylor.
Cant wait for next year so i can see more of The Ghost.
Easily 1 of my fav international fighters too.

 

Yeah the jury's still out on him i reckon.

He is a top fighter with a great 2007, but i want to see him in a few more big name fights before i include him in my top 10 p4p.

Calzaghe has been a champ for over 10 years and only recently entered top ten calculations. Kelly is on the right track but the accolades are too over the top at the minute.

 

Anyone except PBF above Israel Vazquez shouldnt be there.

Pavlik is a champ!! He isnt the Ring fighter of the year for nothing, he destroys fighters with huge power and his skills are very underrated.

I said it before, Pavlik will be underfeated for years to come.

 

Not quite for Katsidis just yet.
If he did pull it off **** he would be close to top 20 thats 4 sure.

 

Good to see im not the only Kelly Pavlik fan.:deal

 

im a big fan of the ghost. I think the extra weight in the Taylor rematch will favour him well.

How does he go at 168? I would love to see him fight Kessler - it would be a brawl

 

for sure :good but might be interesting in the future

someone like Tsypko would be a good start

 

i think pavlik is a very good fighter, and he will continue to dominate, but i do think its a little early for top 10 p4p

 

All american white boy, with KO power. What's not to like?
