Pavlik

those fighters for pavlik are garbage.nobody knows who they are.Bob Arum is setting it up to take our money.he should fight a known name like winky wright,felix sturm,or trinidad at 168lbs. Andy Lee,Randy Griffin,Marco antonio Rubio,Gary Lockett,and Giovanni Lorenzo are no names at this point.i won't watch and i won't pay for that garbage.

Settle down, boy. If Lorenzo is the #1 contender officially then Pavlik should fight him and remain mandatory-free for another year.

Griffin would make an entertaining fight

Wright just called his ass out. Make it happen.

[Feint]

Top contenders should get a shot at the title. That's how they become a "name". You never know, a future great could be in that mix.

On a side note, it looks like Andy Lee is going to get a shot at the end of this year if the article is correct.

they are all worthless opponents.

a winky match can happen, all they have to do is make it
