Roy vs Pavlick

[KiloTeague]

I think Roy wins pretty easy. Thus, it becomes hipocritical to say Pavlick is good and Roy is bad. Neither are nothing compared to a Prime Roy Jones. But at 40 I think Roy can still beat rather easily a prime Pavlick.

I cannot understand how ppl can think Roy can beat Pavlik right now. Who was the last fighter above C level and not completely done/bloated that ROy beat?

Styles make fights, and roy moves too much for pavliks liking. Pavlik likes fighters who come to him. And he hates fighters who give him weird angles. Hell, Taylor in the rematch was fighting more in angles and made the fight alot closer then their first match-up.

You only think that because you have never seen Pavlik.

How do I know you havn't seen him? Because you can't even spell his ****ing name right. It's only 6 letters how can people mess it up!

Pavlik now but in his prime Roy would pitch a shut-out

Roy is faster, more experienced, more skilled, knows how to move properly, and would be more comfortable at what I presume would be at least SMW if they were to fight,.....I really couldn't picture Pavlik winning this fight in any way other than catching Roy with a huge shot and stopping him.

God I hate the constant "styles make fights" answers in here. Yeah, I kind of knew that already.

Now, who has Roy beaten in the last 5 years that wasn't either a C-level fighter or shot to hell that would indicate he can beat a prime, hungry young guy like Pavlik?

Pavlik doesn't like angles...big ***n deal. Roy is 40 and has no legs. Roy's biggest weakness right now is against high volume guys. Pavlik is a horrible matchup for Roy at this point. Would Roy have beaten him easily in his prime? Of course he would have. He would have eaten him up. That was then, this is now, and Roy stands very little chance in this matchup at this point.

LOL, you guys are great.

Yeah, whatever, I guess you are right. Roy just beat Sheika, I guess he would *** Pavlik up beyond repair. My mistake. I must have been imagining Roy barely throwing a proper punch for 6 rounds against Calzaghe; or struggling in the first half of a fight against a fat, inactive Welterweight; or having to battle to beat C-class Hanshaw; or getting knocked the *** out by a journeyman. Sorry.

pavlik has no business fighting above 160 right now.
