    Oh and to add to this, I heard Bronco McKart gave Pavlik a ton of trouble and was able to repeatedly land his right hook when they fought, but he couldn't take Kelly's shots.

    Martinez is faster and has better foot movement than McKart though, so let's see how it plays out.

        People really need to understand that Pavlik is a REAL 160 Pounder. He will not weigh in at 156 pound like Williams did.

        Pavlik is a BIG dude. He fought as high as 166 and 170. And is now talking about moving up to 168 to fight Bute. Pavlik has the power to knock Martinez out.

            Martinez, though a mover, will be easier to find then Hopkins. Bernard executed a perfect gameplan which was to was to take away his best weapon (right hand) by not allowing him to get set and throw the jab to set up that right. He did that by moving before Pavlik could get set, feinting to make him reset, getting off first or when he did get off he would either counter his jab or fall back on his great defense by ducking and grabbing.

            Sergio can do these things to an extent but he's a little more predictable. It's basically move one direction, get it and get out, repeat. He'll also pose in front of his opponent long enough for them to get off and keep his hands low in the process. For these reasons I do think Pavlik is going to find his right in the fight but it's a matter of how often. If he's able to land early on it could pay dividends for later on in the fight which could make Martinez a more open target kind of how Williams wore him down. Still, Martinez will likely have a field day offensively himself so it's interesting fight but right now I'm picking Martinez.

              I'll bet 100K Pavlik beats Martinez. Just because Williams got a gift win over Martinez doesn't mean this won't be easy work for Pavlik.

                  Sergio only had roughly a month to prepare for the Williams fight. I hope this ample time to prepare will ensure that his stamina will not be an issue. He should have Pavlik chasing him around the ring trying to cut off the corners and not letting him get inside. Stick and move son all night.....I hope, lol. If Pavlik gets inside for too long, there could be problems but I hope Martinez realizes this and does his usual thing from the outside- Martinez UD Pavlik gets in a few good shots but Martinez' movement makes the fight.
