    So Your Bob Arum, What Do You Do With Kelly Pavlik?

    How would you manage Pavlik to try to make him a mainstream star athlete? What kind of fights would you get him? How would you try to get him more exposure?

    I would try to get a fight with Winky Wright. Also I would really push to get him a fight on regular TV, channel 3 or something. That would be great exposure. The Lockett fight would have been perfect for TV and with him winning in impressive fashion, it would turn a lot of people on to him.

        A fight with Winky Wright would be best. A fight with Abraham or Sturm would be good.

        No sense in fighting Rubio right now, he's not a mandatory like Lockett.

          i would try and land a fight with calzaghe, if not, i'd put him against a winky wright or possibly sergio mora if he beats forrest again, i definatly wouldn't put him against Rubio like they're saying, no exposure to the mainstream if he fights someone mostly unknown to the general public

            Yes, I forgot to mention that. Complete unification would be great! I agree, no need to fight Whobio?
