From ESPN:
"Of course it depends on what's there for us," Loew said. "That's why we're fighting Bernard in this one -- there was really no viable opponent at 160. Kelly has always said he wants to fight [IBF champion] Arthur Abraham to unify the titles, but Abraham [facing his own mandatory against Raul Marquez] wasn't available. If and when he is, Kelly would love to fight him, and trust me, he won't have any problem whatsoever making 160 to do it."
As stated there, Pavlik would love to go back to 160 and unify. Who would be the opponent you think Pavlik should fight next to most convincingly prove that he is the real deal champ?
