I think Mora fights nothing like Rubio, and even if they were exact clones why would Pavlik say such a thing not a great way to build acceptence for this fight.
I do not have a real problem with the fight though because I think Mora is different then most of the fighters that he has looked very good against. I think Pavlik will win pretty easily but the better fights in the division are pretty hard to make so he needs to stay sharp and broaden his appeal.
Mora atleast has a little name value, which is more then I can say for most of the top 10 in teh middleweight division. Also making 154 may have been tough on Mora, so it is hard to put to much stock into the second Forrest fight (it could mean a lot but it might not mean much either).
