    Yeah he can come back but he needs a new trainer that can give him more advice than double up the jab, he has the worst corner! He need to pay b hop to come in the camp and help jack loew see the things he's missing

      He has to move out to another place and surround himself with other trainers and advisers that would dedicate more time with him. A boxer on the top don't last that many years and he has to take advantage now. When he retires then he can drink all he wants

        He'd make great match ups against Froch, Williams, Abraham, Green, Kessler, and maybe Bute.

        I honestly don't see him standing a chance against Dirrell or Ward though.

          i think so.....hes still young, and so long as he can stay sober i think he will do well in the sport again.

            Pavlik can come back,but keep him away from slick fighters with good movement & he'll be fine!!

              your dr phil theory might work in la la land but in the real world he's done,he has no motivation,he's a drunk..it would take him months just to get of the grog.He's still devastated over his loos to old man hopkins..the only smart thing he could do is stop drinking and start a career as a water boy or something.

                Sure he can. But at what weight. if he fight at 168 he is going to get his azz handed to him by those at the top.

                I might be in the minority but I could see him beating AA.

                    I don't see him having much chance at 168, but if he can keep his weight under control, he should be in the top 3 at MW, at least until the young fighters like Pirog, Golovkin, N'Jikam, Lemieux, etc get more experience under their belts. I'd still like to see him fight Paul Williams.

                    Pavlik should definitely try to get Steward as his trainer though.

                      one thing is for sure, he needs a new trainer and a new advisor when it comes to his match making.

                      he was brought up fairly tough being the underdog more than once in his career, pavlik just needs to evolve his game and develop more facets to his game. he has a good chin, solid work rate, hits like a truck, and makes exciting fights.

                      he was just mismanaged there for a few fights and it's taken it's toll. he needs to revamp his team and move to somewhere where he can benefit from a variety of styles and a better trainer..... " double jab right hand kelly"
