the ward-pavlik fight is on jan 26 being targeted for LA. ward's last two fights have been phenomenal but showed somewhat excessive clinching and holding which makes it difficult for his opponents to get into a rhythm.
pavlik's advantage is on the outside where he can throw that wicked right straight. let's assume for a second pavlik is able to clean up his act and could come back to being 90% of what he was when he dethroned a prime jermain taylor, he could give ward some serious problems. if he can push ward back with his hi-work rate and a ref that splits them apart during a clinch creates distance, pavlik might be able to pull off an upset. for the record, i think ward wins this by UD
