[revs1227]

pavlik ko

kelly is equally as devistaing a puncher , ggg can be hit
pavlik was a beast ! just led the wrong lifestyle
pavlik had taylor

GGG needs his taylor

Great match up here people forget how Pavlik just tore through a tough mw division culminating with one of the best fights I've seen in Taylor vs Pavlik 1 where Kelly got up from being knocked down in2nd and KO'd the undefeated Jermaine Taylor in 7.

My pick : Pavlik as of now bc we really haven't seen GGG tested yet. Dunno if that good or bad. Either he's ridiculously nasty or his opponents sub par. But he def trying to fight everyone at 160 so can't blame him

[Evil Abed]

Would have been a hell of a fight.

My boy Kelly knocks GGG knocks out late.

American's voting for their own, what else is new...

Yes, and there are so many hundreds of Kazakh's on this site running up the total for GGG. SMH.

2007 Pavlik wasn't a total drunken fool yet, so he has a chance. Would have been a super PPV with a decent undercard.

[Dr Rumack]

If Kelly doubled the jab Golovkin would be lost.

pavlik blocks punches with his face, thats usually really bad against a huge power puncher. I say GGG by stoppage. Pavlik may end up with a broken orbital bone or jaw ect.

The one thing that makes me give pavlik a chance is that GGG gets hit pretty often too and he doesnt mind taking a shot to land a shot, that gives pavlik a chance to land something big and pavlik was a huge middleweight.

I dont see it going the distance.

Miranda & Taylor aren't Golovkin by any measure. Pavlik's size advantage at MW wouldn't be as big a deal with a guy like Golovkin who primarily spars with LHW's & SMW's. They both had similar thudding power and Kelly was no stranger to the canvas (Taylor, McKart, Zuniga). Golovkin by a clear decision.

[FrankieClutch]

The fans win that 120-108

[SouthPawHitman]

I bumped this because Kelly posted on Facebook that he and Marinda both punch harder than GGG does.

I agree with The Ghost.
