    Pavlik - Martinez II ?

    Havn't seen anyone mention this. What are the chances Pavlik will try again at 160 and try regain the undisputed, lineal crown?

    Martinez says he wants big money fights. Do you believe HBO would pay a modest sum for that fight? And should Martinez grant Pavlik a rematch? Would another win over Pavlik greatly enhance his legacy?

    Pavlik doesn't seem too willing to fight nowadays.

      pavlik said he could barely make 160 last time around and he continues to have health problems

      dont think its likely

      id much rather see pavlik in the 168 mix

        If Pavlik was still depressed over losing to Martinez, I'm sure he feels a little better after seeing what Martinez did on Saturday.

          A win over Pav right now does nothing for Sergio.

          Although, I wouldn't mind seeing it. That was a VERY competive fight until Pav got cut. Then Martinez took over.

          I just want Martinez to get the biggest fights possible because he deserves it and it's hard being a superstar these days if you're not signed with Top Rank or GBP.

            Pavlik needs a new lease on boxing, already stated he struggles to make the weight go up and fight a journeyman at 169 and see how it goes.

            Martinez can wait and see now, have a well earned break. Or he needs to ride the wave of populairty and get a decent fight going. Fight Mundine ........... lol

              Pavlik should just settle with a personal victory knowing Martinez is a great fighter, and with the added struggle with weight, a competitive loss might be the best he can hope for.

              I had him outboxing Martinez in the middle rounds, then he just fell apart. But overall competitive nonetheless.

                Id like to see this to but not likely . Pav got some personal **** to deal with although I dont see martinez getting any bigger money fights than that. HBO might be weary though being Pavlik pulls out of fights on the reg.

                  Are the rumours really true about Pavlik's personal problems?

                  I wouldn't mind seeing a rematch either Rabbit. It was a good fight, and yeah Pavlik was doing well up until he was cut. And in fairness to him, his corner was terrible that night. They didn't know how to stop the blood-flow.
