    Pavlik doesnt look charismatic, and hes not going to attract the women like Oscar did.

        I don't think it's about the race but how exciting your fights are. Look at Tyson and Holyfield. They were black yet they had so many white fans. Pavlik is an exciting fighter, his fights are brutal just like the aforementioned fighters and he could become a star because of that. Now Taylor is black and his style is garbage so his star appeal is very low.
        I guess your right because Pavlik is a vicious and high volume puncher which makes him exciting, but believe me him being white doesn't hurt.

          exactly, Arum really does say some of the dumbest **** though.

            its hard to find pretty faced boxers, that are skilled, i mean after years of sparring and fights your face doesnt get any prettier, not gonna find the tom cruisse brad pitt looking guys boxing.

              Nice try.
              who gives a ****? oscar had never won any other belt than the welterweight and middleweight.

              roy has accomplished it, meaning he has done better **** than de la hoya, de la hoya wooped an out of prime whitaker and an old julio cesar chavez, what competition is that? he lost to trinidad, and lost 2 times against shane mosley, and now with mayweather. he was great back then, he won an olympic medal but so?

              roy has beaten bernard hopkins in the mid 90s, he beat james toney, all of them were competition.

                  I dont think their talking about who is the better fighter they're talking about who's more famous and more sucessfull $$$. De la hoya hands down.
