TBH if Kelly wins I would like to see him fight someone like Ishida (after Pirog beats him) then go after Pirog.
I think Pavlik vs Pirog would be a big seller here esp on the east coast maybe Atlantic City. Tons of ways they can sell that fight. USA vs Russia angle etc.
Might just be wishful thinking from a Pavlik fan but I hope he kicks it into gear and gets back to form.

I don't think he's going down to MW or either man is going up... especially Ishida.
As for his opponent, I just watched his fight against Jimmy Campbell and he (sigmond) is a come forward fighter that tries to apply pressure... Pavlik is going to destroy him. If he isn't knocked out in less than 4 rounds, I'll be surprised.
