What is the future for the MW?

[Silencers]

I think Pavlik will be the man at middleweight for a while.

[Froch You]

Winner of Pavlik-vs-Abraham will be the future of the middleweight division.

I believe Arum said only one more year at MW for Pavlik. After Rubio, Forrest, Abraham most likely. Should be wide open

PAUL WILLIAMS. Deal with it haters. He is coming! Oh & Andre Ward will also be atop the P4P list before his career is over.

Isnt Ward gonna be fighting at 168?

Thing is though Abraham seems to be heating to make 160 right now and he will also eventually end up at 168. 2-3 defenses before the Abraham fight seems like a big number. I dont know, I dont have the feeling Arum wants that risky fight ...

[IMDAZED]

Pavlik's looked a little lethargic in his two bouts over 160, coupled with this hammering it'll be interesting to see how he looks in his next fight. Hopefully he doesn't jump immediately back in the ring but eh.

Kessler-Abraham if he gets past Wright? Or Wright-Kessler? Dawson lurking? Yeah, I'm fantasizing but it doesn't hurt every now and then.

Naseem said it best during the Hopkins fight, "They made this joker into a superstar and he never fought anyone with a jab."

Kelly's future depends very much on Jack Loew and their ability to help Kelly grow as a fighter. The future of 160 is still Pavlik and he is a great fighter--getting beat by Hopkins at LHW is nothing to be ashamed of so long as its taken as a learning experience.

[El Dominicano]

I don't know. After seeing Pavlik against B-Hop...I'm startin to think if Pavlik don't change his style or learnz to adapt he'll lose to another slick pure boxer.

By the way, AA can easily be outbox...jus by lookin at his style.

[BLOODGOD]

I'm looking forward for the next fight of pavlik too... hope he still have the tools...
