Pacquiao.
Besides his satanic power, Pavlik hasn't shown me much in terms of punch variety.
He fights very basic.Comment

Just about even. Neither have stellar defense, but they both have improved in that area greatly. Pacquiao is better at moving in and out of punching range now. Pavlik does a better job of picking off punches with his gloves and he uses his height/range pretty well.
Both fighters punch well with both hands. Pavlik is the prototype, technical puncher. He uses a good jab and throws effective power shots behind that jab. Kelly and Wlad K actually remind me of each other a bit, it's just that Wladimir is a better athlete. both guys love to use that left hook, right cross combination and both use it well. Pavlik is a very good body puncher when he throws to the body. Pacquiao has stepped up his body attack in the last 3-4 years as well. Pacquiao and Pavlik have shown that they are patient fighters. Pacquiao isn't some guy that needs to blow you out with his power in order to be successful anymore.Comment
