the way abraham fights is good against sub-par opposition, guys that don't apply a lot of pressure. abraham is more than willing to back up withouth counter punching and the only time he really gets any shots off are when he has his opponent moving back, and that is when they move back on their own, usually from throwing so many punches per round, Abraham is not an high volume fighter and against someone who is AND who has power like pavlik, being pressured and moving back without counter puching, is a serious flaw in the game plan to try and get a win.
the one thing that Abarham does have is power, and one punch can end the fight with him, or it could change the direction of a fight into his favor and he could start to do work then.
but against ayala he was more than willing to back up and let his opponent out work him and not throw any punches until the last 10 seconds ( trying to steal the rounds) which actually worked some of the time because when he did move forward and punch he was landing BIG shots, just not enough of them, but it was enough in the end when he stopped old boy. but had ayala knew how to tie up and stop Abrahams attack, he could've easily have made it a closer fight on the score cards and maybe could've avoided getting ko'd.
but against pavlik, if Abraham fights the same style, if he doesn't knockout pavlik, be it with one punch, or one big punch that allows him to tee off on pavlik for the win, I see Abraham getting walked down and stopped, a good jab behind pressure and fire power like pavlik has i think is a sure fire way to beat Abraham, especially when he backs up and doesn't counter punch, because pavlik isnt going to let him move forward at all if they fight........
i like Abraham but in this match up, i think styels make fights, and his fight style against Pavliks, I do see Abraham getting mowed over.........Comment
