    Any news on Pavlik's next opponent lately?

    I heard Arum shot down the Mora match, is he working on something else or what? I'd like to see Kelly fight twice more this year, but he's gotta get an opponent soon.

    Calzaghe ducked him hard. So no, not yet.

      Probably another mismatch like Rubio.

        Yeh, Arum has tried a few to set up a few tomato cans for Pavlik this time: Calzaghe(ducked), Winky(thinks his ****'s made of gold), Mora(Unfinished business with Forrest) and wants Abraham in early 09. He's really settin' em up so Kelly can knock 'em down, huh? Every hater keeps makin fun of the Rubio fight, even though it hasn't been talked about for over a month by anyone at Top Rank or the Pavlik camp.

          Arum wanted the Mora fight, but Mora has too many people to pay off to make it happen. He has a mandatory contender and a rematch clause with Forrest to deal with.

            He'll probably end up fighting a sub par fighter again. I'd like to see him fight Winky Wright.

                I heard they are trying to get Vince Phillips to come up to 160, the guy who fought Hatton.

                  Agreed. Abraham is the best fight right now. He would demolish Strum I think.
