Is Pavlik the 160lb version of George Foreman?

I have not seen many fighters with Pavlik's style at all. He is kind of standup, and a hybrid puncher/boxer which is standard, but his style of throwing punches is really strange.
It is like he just pushes them out like they are all jabs. He is not fast but the reason so many seem to find their mark is because he does not give the body language that would give them away. His punches are very sneaky. He never winds up a punch.
I still cannot figure out how he would get power with them. I'm at a loss on that one. His punches look weak ass but they really seem to bust guys up.Comment

Honestly, his style reminds me a bit of Carlos Monzon's, working behind the jab, their best power punch is the right hand, they both don't seem to have much behind their punches but both can punch very hard, maybe Pavlik a bit harder.I have not seen many fighters with Pavlik's style at all.

I can see some similarities between Pavlik's and Arguello's styles, not so much with Foreman's.
Both Pavlik and Arguello have trouble with movers, their ideal match-up is someone who stands right in front of them. Not sure if a lot of people will agree with me on this though...Last edited by TheGreatA; 06-16-2008, 10:47 AM.Comment

Pryor was a mover?
