    Pavlik is exciting but let these guys come at him at 160 not 168 that way Pavlik's power is a advantage.

      This would be a good fight to see. I am not of the opinion that Kessler murders Pavlik. I think this fight would be pretty tactical and close.
      Let's see what Kessler does in his next fight. He needs to redeem himself for the Calzaghe loss.

      Pavlik is a damn sight better than Andrade or Mundine.

      Overall, seems like a nice fight but I don't think Arum would go for it at this juncture.

            This would be a GREAT MATCHUP!

            Pavlik has more power and more of a killer instinct, but Kessler has greater athleticism, skill and accuracy.

            Pick 'em fight IMO.

              Miranda isn't. I know that. Taylor was a champ but he fought crappy like 5 straight fights before looking half way decent against Pavlik on the 2nd go round. All the same he was middleweight champ. Miranda has never been anything but a slugger.

                  Or maybe Kessler didn't duck Miranda. Maybe it's Kessler's management who ****ed it up.

                    MAKE THIS FIGHT!

                    Too Bad Pretty Boy Kessler is gonna lose his looks after he fights pavliks.

                      This seems to be Pavlik's second best match-up after Calzaghe. I think they should make it.
