The reason i bring Mundine into this is he is a speedy fighter. And Pavlik is seriously powerful but seriously slow as well.
Could a speedy fighter expose Kelly?
where the **** did this mundine ****sucker come from? mundine's career is over, his dumbass is blind (serves his ****** ass right), and for ****s sake, this is the guy who got knocked out by sven ottke of all people!
People holding the Ottke loss against him is bloody ridiculous
- it was about his 10th pro fight, with no amateur career, against a very experienced champion, & he was actually winning at the time of the stoppage.
He's improved a hell of a lot since then, & has in my opinion the best defence in Super-Middle, & probably Middleweight as well. Absolutely incredible reactions. Also has the fastest hands.
However, would actually slightly favour Pavlik.
Because when it comes down to it, against top international opponents, when the going gets tough, Mundine gets reluctant.
Think his handspeed & his defence gets him to a close decision, & Pavlik will have a lot of trouble landing anything clean.
But with his kind of brute power, he doesn't have to land clean.
Even landing on the shoulders & arms, with the occaisional hard body shot getting through will wear Mundine down & get him on his bike.
Don't see Pavlik knocking him out - Mundine's reactions are just too good - but see him taking a solid UD on work-rate.

you cannot be serious.
I like the use of words in this post thus i have nominated it for post of the week. Well yes im sure you probably think we are all nuthuggers posting about Mundine. Well Mundine had 4 amateur fights before giving away a $500 000 + yearly nrl contract to take up boxing like his father did. If you can take 5 minutes out of your daily time, you will notice Mundine clearly knocks Ottke down in the 8th round. At the start of the 9th he continues to land a barrage and has Ottke once punch from a KO. The inexperienced Mundine than runs out of gas, the fatigue had a lot to do with his knock out loss. There can be no talk about his head as he went 12 round will Mikkel Kessler who landed some sledge hammer shots during their fight.
His eye has got better and he is looking to fight Mikkel Kessler in february next year. He is an underdog but many people are giving him a chance at possibly causing Kesslers first loss. This is if Kessler wins like Mundine has predicted.
Sure his contact lense thing was dumb. But i have stated before he has lightning hand speed and a seriously powerful right. His defence has improved enormously and i don't think Kelly will even see Mundine's punches coming. Also Mundine is a tactically smart fighter, he knows how to follow a fight plan. I seriously would advise Mundine on offering Kelly a lot of money, this is a fight i think he can win, and not just but win convincing in that.
In his last fight, Mundine appeared to have so much trouble when his Argentinian opponent, Zamora Nievas, started going in behind jabs. Though Mundine won most rounds, and temporarily deposited Nievas on the canvass in round 3, Nievas managed to rain some blows on him in the fifth when he came in leading with jabs.
Pavlik's jab, recently displayed against Taylor, is not something to take lightly. Surely better and more frequently used than Nievas'.
worst read of this fight ive ever seen.
mundine either by wide UD or pavlik by KO.
im taking mundine by UD.
mundine describes his vision in one eye as cloudy.. hardly stevie wonder
He's blind. He said so himself. This isn't Rocky it's real life. If you can't see out of one eye you shouldn't be in the ring against a club fighter let alone world title holders.
