    Most lanky fighters seem a little "Raw" to me.I see the same **** in Paul Williams.I doubt Pavlik will turn out to be a "Great" fighter or anything,but he's definetly going to be a major player in the MW division.I think his style could clearly give Taylor some problems.

      Would you say Hearns was raw?

        I know what you guys mean about Pavlik. But, I love watching exciting fights and I think he will provide some in the future.

                I think we can all agree to that.

                  Yeah that's one of Pavlik's biggest flaws. It's been a while since I've seen a guy with that style do that....and even though he can land accurate punches, he lapses too much. Mckart and Zertuche caught him flat footed and those guys can't break an egg by throwing it at the wall.

                  Pavlik is a badass....but people are hyping him up way too much. He's a methodical technician with a good offense and moderate inside defense.

                  Do you people really think he can beat Jermaine Taylor? I think Taylor would knock him out. He's way too accurate and puts punches together. The difference is.....Taylor isn't Zertuche: LOL. He's a lengthy guy who can crack when he gets leverage on his punches....not a guy straight off the street selling oranges.

                    Yup, just like the title says. After watching two of Pavlik's fights (Zertuche and McKart), I was searching for a word to describe him. I didn't want to use amateurish, because that's not really it. He's just too raw and green and while he would have a puncher's chance against Abraham, Miranda, Wright, and Taylor, I doubt he'd be able to beat them more than 1 time out of 10. I'd pick any of those to beat Pavlik by UD (Taylor and Wright) or KO (Miranda and Abraham).

                    I'd love to see him fight either Miranda or Abraham just to get this guy off of everyone's hype list.
                    I like how he comes to fight.I think he could Taylor fits with his aggresiveness.Miranda would probably stop him in a wild fight.Winky would UD him to death probably.I think he is just about ready to challenge at the top though overall.

                      I sure don't, but he's certainly a top five - ten middleweight and a solid puncher, which makes him a future Taylor opponent and someone who should be able to earn the shot.
