    I knew it, better for Pavlik's legacy not having career 147/154 pounders in his resume, FIGHT STURM MY MAN PAVLIK AND PUT HIM ON HIS ASS!

    I doubt that it will happen now I think Williams should get his 1.5 mil if you ask me because hes in the pound for pound rankings while Pavlik isnt while Pavlik may be the draw of the fight and will probably make more either way Williams should get his 1.5 mil

    That seems low. I know HBO was supposedly offering good money for the fight. Oh well.

    Pavlik vs Sturm would last a couple rounds because Pavlik would walk him down and KO him

    Paul might be asking for too much. Why can't they agree on a 45/45 split and the winner takes the other 10%. ****ing, money.

    Sturm ain't leaving Germany for less money than he made against sati to fight Kelly.

    EXACTLY and that fight is profitable, legitimate and fan friendly.
    Pavlik should go to Germany, make good money, will have another belt in his collection, beat a legitimate MW, beat the #1 rated MW and Knock him out cold, MAN THIS FIGHT NEEDS TO HAPPEN!

    If HBO offered 3.75 and Williams was asking for 1.75, then Williams would still be getting way less than 45%, once you take gate receipts into account.

    That fight will never happen! Never! Trust me. Sturm ain't going to USA for 1 million when he makes more fighting stiffs. And pavlik will not go there to get robbed.

    You are missing my point Miracle, I will bet you my house Sturm does not see round 7 or 8. After the Gevor performance, you really think Sturm last 12 against Kelly?

    Very true I dont think Sturm will ever come back to fight anybody after the De La Hoya fight where he was robbed and why fight Pavlik when he can fight a bum of the month get paid millions in euros, and retain his title everytime

    I dont think it would go 12 but I agree if it did go 12 then Pavlik would get robbed to make up for the Oscar De La Hoya fight
