will be a great fight i agree

martinez has the superior skills but i feel pavlik could bully him and stop him late,i know i may be alone in thinking that though

I think it won't look that dissimilar to Martinez's fight with P-Will, except Pavlik is a little more straight forward and easy to neutralise, so I reckon Martinez sc****s a decision this time.

Although I may be underestimating the difference in strength between Williams and Pavlik.

I don't think it will be nearly as entertaining as williams vs. martinez. Martinez will just win even more clearly.

Difficult one to predict. Maybe a close decision for Martinez?

Warrr Pavlik! It's going to be a tough one, but I hope my boy Pavlik can catch him and knock him out.

i have no idea what's going to happen in this fight. All I know is that Martinez had a great night against Williams, and Kelly is in for a long night if he doesn't sit outside and use his jab. That said, Kelly is usually pretty smart about using his jab and straight right on the outside against smaller guys. He's done it 36 out of 36 nights in the ring against guys at 160 lbs. And he's KO'd 32 of them. While Martinez is good, don't forget he will be the smaller man, and Pavlik can play the role of bully better than P-Will. I picked Kelly by KO, Martinez fights with his lead hand down and that might have worked with Paul but I don't see it being too smart against a KO machine like Kelly. But while I think that a KO of Sergio is most likely, I will not be surprised if Martinez pulls off a UD, and only a little more surprised if he can pull of the knockout. Pavlik UD is also a possibility if he uses his height. This is a tough one to predict.

Pavlik knocks him out. Sergio gets tired late and he never keeps his hands up. That is not a good recipe for him

martinez is slick, how will pavlik deal with that?

too early for me to call.

It's somewhere around there already scheduled. Along with Cloud-Johnson and Mayweather-Mosley.
