does anyone really think mayweather would have a shot against pavlik??

[Kastrioti]

Floyd would have a shot against Pavlik, you are grossley underestimating the now retired best fighter in the world. A slim chance, but a chance nonetheless.

Everybody has a chance...

Mayweather would have no chance at all. Despite me being a fan of Mayweather, I am not delusional at all. You are talking about a 6'2 middleweight with the frame of a light heavyweight with knockout power for that weight, big reach and size and advantage. He would be too much. If Mayweather struggled with the height and reach against De La Hoya , what would happen when he faces a middleweight volume puncher thats a knockout artist and who knows how to fight tall and be consistant. No other reasonable choice other than Pavlik by late stoppage.

Except Pavlik by early stoppage.

I agree.

Floyd might be able to outslick Felix Sturm, but Pavlik has a great chin, great workrate, and great power. If he threw a million punches against Jermain Taylor, I doubt he is going to be scared of Mayweather's punches.

He would eventually catch him.

Floyd struggled against Oscar???

That fight was a cake walk.

I mostly agree with this post but Pavliks chin isn't GREAT, it's decent but no way great, he got dropped by Taylor who hasn't had a ko or KD since 05

Pavlik has a great chin, you serious man? The amount of punishment he takes would result in KO losses for a LOT of fighters. I can't see any other MW currently who would have survived the 2nd round with Taylor. Taylor's power is severely underrated because of his KO percentage, you know why he has no KO since 05? Because he fought guys like Hopkins, Wright and Spinks who are almost impossible to KO.

He also hopped back up in half a second.

He got nailed with like 10 punches, went down and immedately got back up.

That is true, but, he didn't even hurt them, at all in any of those fights

It's just my opinion, I respect yours aswell

Mayweathers a good boxer but Pavlick would prevail.

We'll see, he will fight Abraham(if he wins) a guy with real power then he'll be tested, If not I hope he fights Miranda at 168
