Arthur Abraham/Felix Sturm reaction

[Contenders]

Anybody heard any reaction from the other two middleweight world title holders to Pavlik's big win over Taylor? I wonder how anxious they are to unify against him?

they can't be, they shouldn't be, that right hand could take the both of them out in one night.

Abraham-Pavlik is a sick, sick quality fight. Sturm...I think Pavlik ropes that kid.

I know sometimes it doesn't matter who beat who and who lost to who, but the way Pavlik KO'd Miranda and the way Miranda gave Abraham hell for twelve rounds...bustin' his jaw in two places along the way, makes you think that Pavlik would destroy him! You never know I guess. But I'd still like to see Pavlik unify against either one...preferably Abraham...I think that'd be a good one and I'd pick Pavlik!

even without using miranda as the measuring stick. pavlik still blows Abraham out of the water

Before he got his jaw broke, Abraham was handling Miranda easy and still came back to almost stop him. Prior to last weekend, Abraham was far and away the more accomplished fighter in comparison to Kelly and a fight between the two would be a joy to watch.

Are you a Pavlik fan?

My guess is that Abraham would be very keen to get a unification fight ASAP,
where-as Sturm will be very reluctant.

Only stumbling block to the fight with Abraham will be from promoters end :
Abraham will have no problem with travelling in my opinion, but would say he would want 40/60 of a pretty big pie.

Very much doubt Sturm will fight outside of Germany, though who can blame him after the last time he came to the US.
Very much doubt Pavlik will travel to Germany.
Don't see this one happening.

Sturm isn't particularly keen on Abraham either - Abraham's people have been after the fight for a while, & still doesn't look remotely close to happening.
