| Kelly Pavlik: Pacquiao-Mosley Spot Very Likely, Says Arum
|
|
By Lem Satterfield Top Rank Promotions CEO, Bob Arum, called it "a big possibility" that former WBC and WBO middleweight champion, Kelly Pavlik, could fight on the May 7 under card of the Showtime televised main event featuring eight-division titlist Manny Pacquiao' against three-division, five-time chapion, Shane Mosley, at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. "We're holding a spot on that card," said Arum. "Kelly wants to do it, we want to do it. So there is a big possibility that he could be on the card." A 28-year-old resident of Youngstown, Ohio, Pavlik (36-2, 32 knockouts) was released on Jan. 4 from the Betty Ford Center in Rancho Mirage, Calif., after having been admitted for an alcohol problem on Nov. 4.

I'm glad Kelly is doing better. Good to see him coming back hope he does well. He's a good guy I also met his coach in Kansas City nice guy. He should fight at least one good tune up fight before stepping in the ring again but I think he's gonna come back hard man he could be holding another titl... |

If kelly fights on this under card I see it being a very easy fight for him lucky if the fighter is even in the top 25 |

They have all kind of excuses why Donaire can't fight on Manny's Undercard, but it never seems to stop Arum from showcasing all his other boxers. |

[QUOTE=ThePhantom5]Andrade crushes Kelly right now.
Kelly needs a few tunes-ups before getting into the ring with him.
Ask Eric Lucas.
Andrade is a horrible comeback fight.[/QUOTE]
Why would I ask Eric Lucas anything? He's not world-class. Pavlik was competitive with Sergio Martinez. ... |

Disagree. Kelly's straight shots would damage Andrade. |
