Pavlik had a good comeback fight {Not great but good enough} Who shud he fight next?

He does not deserve a title shot now, he should stay busy against so-so opponents and try to get his game back. Then make a move.

Once again I say Librado Andrade. I think Pavlik needs another tuneup, and what a great fight it could be. Unfortunately I dont think Pav thinks he needs another fight, from what I have seen he still needs to sharpen up before stepping into the lions den with any of the top guys. Out of all of them I do think AA would be the best choice for him.

Thats exactly who i was thinking about librado andrade. pavlik needs a durable guy but a guy that will be in front of him all night. If pavlik isnt able to beat andrade to me its a clear sign that pavlik wont be able to hang with the top dogs at super middle

Andrade

Sakio Bika

based on pavlik last fight i dont think he is ready for bika's rough and tumble style

Pavlik is just a gate keeper, he isn't going to beat any top boxers. No way in hell.

ure probably right....he needs to look good and Bika definitely aint the opponent for that. im with u two tho, Andrade would be a good fight.

ohh yea....forgot Peter Manfredo

A another tune-up with non-descrit guy then i'd like to see him fight Kessler
makes the most sense both are past their primes and have slowed a little but still are active enough and willing to stand and throw at each other neither are going to move alot so it's the most fan-friendly fight.unlike AA Kessler is more consistent and fights all 12 rounds not just in spots. Bute is vulnerable but is to sharp and his movement will negate Pavlik think Martinez fight but with more power shots

i dont think he had a good comeback performance at all, i was happy to see him boxing again , but at the same time i thought he looked awful, he still needs to fight very average fighters right now until he shows he's actually back, because what i saw was pretty bad, his first step he accomplished and that was getting back in the ring , step two needs to be get back to what he was but he's not ready at all to fight any top guys he would get embarrassed right now.

you want to rebuild his confidence not step into a fight so soon thats going to mentally destroy him, if he were to fight a top guy next fight i would almost feel bad for him because thats how bad i think he would get embarrassed, let him get back on his feet first and get his confidence back.

Yup Pavlik against Paul Williams or Mikkel Kessler.
