    AA and PWill are the only good fights lefft for him. Pavlik would get embarassed by Sturm no one wants to see that it won't happen. Maybe a few catchweight fights against top 168ers like Green Andrade etc

      you'd think Sturm would take the risk and move up in weight or what not.

      I have to ask though, how will the rest of his carer play out?

      easy title defenses for the next 5 years?

      or will he try to unify some titles at 160?

      wait till Pavlik moves up to Super Middle?

      plenty of things he can do, but what will Sturm do?

        I could see Sturm unifying, especially if he changes promoters. He's already beaten Sylvester pretty easily, so they could sell it as a unification fight in Germany. Huggy Zbik will get a full title once Pavlik vacates/gets beat because neither Pavlik nor P. Williams will want to bother with such a low-grade opponent. Sturm could slap Zbik silly and get another belt. So he'd get two more titles, fighting in Germany with minimal risk

          I do not know why some boxers sign some contracts which involve a lot of years tight to a company. I believe nobody should sign a contract longer than 2-3 years. If something happen, then the boxer has the option to move without getting hurt. Most likely Sturm is attached to Universum Company until 2012. I do not know why some boxers are so ****** to create bad relation when they are under contract; everybody knows they will do everything not to get any fight for the boxer. Look a good example with Daniel Santos and King, he got stocked with him and even he did not participate in the last auction, but still he will get his commission of whatever percentage was stipulate in the contract:gay:.

Sturm is already huge in Germany, and Germans are willing to pay to watch him beat up B- and C-level opposition. They'll just continue milking him for a while. Despite all his talk, no way he'll take a chance on fighting an Abraham, Sturm, Williams, or the like
                much agreed. I don't see Sturm even fighting any Americans. Or anyone in the top 10 for that matter.
