I was thinking about Kelly Pavlik last night (no homo) and thought this would be a great first fight for him at super middleweight. Pavlik is on the ?outs? right now and desperately needs a big win to get him back into the title picture. I think Andrade is that opponent who will make Pavlik work and test him at the higher weight class. Plus, you gotta think that this fight would be an all action slugfest as both fighters are not exactly defensively inclined and a fight HBO could easily make...
On the other hand, what better fight to build on Librado?s momentum after his impressive destruction of Canadian Eric Lucas last month, than Kelly Pavlik? Pavlik is what you might call a ?vulnerable fighter? right now after his letdown to Sergio Martinez and is one loss away from being ?irrelevant? in the boxing world?

Not sure who I'd pick because I don't know how well Pavlik would perform at 168, but I'm sure it would be a hell of a lot of fun to watch... good fight, let's hope it gets made
I don't see how people think Andrade destroyed Eric Lucas. Lucas was teeing off on Andrade, and backed him up several times during the fight. From what I saw from that fight, I think Pavlik would knock Andrade out. His once solid chin seems plenty penetrable now.
Lucas had his moments but Andrade was relentless in his attack and battered him until his corner had no choice but to stop it. I thought it was impressive performance by Andrade especially after the loss to Bute...

50-50 fight.
Pavlik losses mobility and his physical advantage at super middle and Andrade would be on him all night but both are on the down of their carrers I feel and Andrade now more than ever seems to block punches with his face.
Pavlik's 1-2 should land often on ther mexican but Andrade would be o him all night with his relentless pressure,I don't know if Pavlik could handle it.Andrade has endless stamina.
Exactly,Good post bro.
I've never really heard chatter about this fight so thanks for bringing it to the board. This could be a good comeback fight for both guys if Pavlik decides to got to the SMW division. With Andrade's previous performances against Lucas and Pavlik's reputation this could certainly be a great action fight. Seems like it could happen too.

I would love to see this fight.I think andrade takes pavlik out.Hbo or
showtime should buy this fight.The only other fight for kelly is bute,And
i think pavlik has no chance against him.
It's not the only fight. I bet Pavlik-Bika could get made just like Bute-Miranda was made.
I still think Pavlik-Andrade would be more entertaining than Pavlik-Bute.

His chin seems alright,Was never hurt.Even against bute he was never
hurt that badly.The body shot took andrade out.Kelly doesnt fight like
kessler or bute.He likes to brawl,And u dont brawl with andrade:boxing:
He should be able to beat Andrade...I mean thats the perfect opponent for him..A slow flat footed boxer with no defense lol.
The only way kelly wins this,Is by outboxing andrade.Cause if he stands
and trades with andrade,He gets knocked out.And kelly is not a good
boxer himself.

Kelly can kiss his Boxing career goodbye if he can't beat Librado Andrade.
Yes, it?s very much a ?crossroads? fight for Pavlik. A win will set up another big fight for him, a loss will set him back light years.
Pavlik should take some time and get in good shape and work on his skills and pick off the guys he can beat from that Super Six, Abraham, Froch & Kessler could all be perfect for him and give him a chance at winning some fights in a way that make him look good to watch again.
The ?losers? from the Super Six will not be available until next year. Pavlik, obviously, needs to get some wins under his belt in the interim?
I think it'd be on par with the first Jermain Taylor-Kelly Pavlik fight if not better. Could be very very entertaining. Andrade has a rock head, keeps coming forward, and apparently loves getting hit. What's not to like???
Yes, this is a fan friendly fight for sure and I think HBO would schedule this in a heartbeat?

I would to see this fight not sure about the outcome tho.
I could easily see it going either way because they?re so closely matchup up. This is even a ?crossroads fight? of sorts?
