Lebron James vs Kelly Pavlik

[Crazylegs77]

Lebron James: 6'8" 250 pounds

Can Pavlik beat Lebron in a boxing match? Sure Lebron is an NBA player and Pavlik is a pro boxer so it sounds ****** at first, but think about it. Lebron is a barrel chested and freakishly athletic dude. He doesn't have the lanky and lean build that most basketball players have. If he were to learn some boxing fundamentals I think he could be a tough matchup for anyone. He's a prime athletic specimen. He's got speed, power and is insanely agile. What do you think?

Anything is possible.

Shaq couldn't even beat a shot De la Hoya in a sparring match, keep in mind Shaq weighed 2x more than DLH.

As far as a real fight between Pavlik and Lebron, I would envision Lebron eating straight-right hands like skittles and being KO'd by the end of the first round.

But I understand why you made this thread...since Lebron can't win a championship on the court you were hoping he could maybe win one in the ring LOL. Not gonna happen!

lebron is a super heavy weight he lands one combo on pavlik hes dead literally

It's funny how all of you just write everything off with the fact that the punches would be "telegraphed". Do you honestly believe that Lebron wouldn't be able to land a single punch? Lebron is actually faster than Pavlik too, btw.

Yea maybe in running sprints lol...but in the ring the ref isn't going to call 'foul' everytime Pavlik's glove lands on King Jame's face.

Lebron is not even a 90% free-throw shooter, what makes you think he'll be able to land accurate combos on Pavlik let alone one combination?

because pavlik is much smaller and slow as hell... Lebron is much quicker than pavlik

Basketball players can't fight, you can even tell when they throw those sissy punches at each other when they get into fights with other players. Doesn't really matter though, because Basketball Players aren't suppose to be boxers, they're suppose to be dribblers and people who are great and skillful at shooting through a hoop. I think its pretty dumb to put any basketball player up against a professional boxer. Wow, their big and muscular so what. Boxing is more then just being big and powerful. For one basketball players would probably have a hard time landing on most professional boxers.

So what lol...you're missing one important fact, Pavlik is a professional boxer. Does Lebron know how to slip/block a 1-2-3 combo? Can he throw a hook off the jab? He probably won't have the proper stance to be able to move around the ring...lol this is pointless.

It's not like Lebron is going to dunk on Pavlik in the ring or cross him over lol. This thread really shows how severely overrated King James is.

I bet since the Klitschkos are tall they can be the best at basketball and kick Lebron James ass in basketball./sarcasm Its just a ****** ass concept.

Pavlik would **** him up, and put him to sleep in the first rd.. ****** ****in thread, and I like Lberon.

Exactly, I feel dumb even discussing it lol. The thing is anyone can pick up a bball and play a game, but you can't play boxing and this is why I can't believe people are even saying Lebron would win.
