Id like to see him fight Taylor or Kessler in the newyear. My gut feeling is Mick will give him a few soft defences which at 31yo he doesnt need.

I think he should maybe see where Kessler goes, because Kessler after his JC loss is getting a few win under his belt and rightfully so. He needs to also see what Bute does or the other beltholder, unification is going to be the key to these great fights, but Carl knows that hes fighting the best hes ever fought now and hes ready for the bigger names. So if all goes to plan and he beats Pascal we will see these fights.

It does concern me that Kessler is fighting another low-ranked fighter. I hope Kessler comes back and fights Froch,Bute,Taylor,Pavlik.

He just lost to the best fighter he needs to rebuild his confidence! The bigger fights will come for him.

I hope so ive seen a lot of fighters waste what they have fighting gimmies. The Calzaghe loss was a bad one i hope that this is Kesslers last "confidence" builder.

Pavlik would KO Froch in under 6.

Can you back that up with any facts as to why you are so confident please?
We could well say the same about Carl who 100% bangs harder.
It's a pick em plain and simple but i see the Cobra taking him out

I think a good boxer would beat Froch maybe stop him. Pavlik is a banger ans Froch is all wrong for him. If it turned into a slug fest Pavlik would get smashed, Froch hits way harder.

Box Froch everything off the jab backing up and you`ll retire him.

On the other side of the coin..Froch is all wrong for evryone he's fought,almost Naz like with his mad angles (admits it himself that Naz was a huge inspiration),I just see Frochy thumping him silly to be honest as i'm way from convinced of Pavliks chin and Taylor who is by no means a banger had him all over the shop in a matter of minutes.
trust me Froch is the most heavy handed SM out their.
Would be some fight and your right if Pavlik could avoid the tear up and use his jab (and it is a good one) he could maybe ware him down but he's too static and rarely moves his head

I know your being sarcastic but i want to pull you up on something, first off Kelly Pavlik was stunned from a equilibrium shot not a shot to the chin which makes your legs go to jelly. I don't know if you've ever done boxing but temple shots and shots to your equilibrium, make your legs do break dancing...........

Even an iron chinned fighter like Antonio Margarito, was stunned various times from a shot to the temple and shots on top of the head, that doesn't mean Kelly Pavlik has a suspect chin.

Mate you've allegedly had what 3...4 fights? Quit it with the 'you've obviously never boxed line, its getting tired.

It carry's absolutely no weight whatsover. Scraps been in the game for hundreds of years, he gets it wrong all the fucking time

In fact scrap what I said, I take it all back. Amir Khan got hit with a shot to the top of the head so Im going to write off his loss, he isnt chinny at all.

First off why don't you read what i said, i said "i don't know if you've done boxing before" i never said you've obviously never boxed before, which is totally different. I was just explaining something i wasn't trying to be funny.

As your other comment Amir Khan took a grazing punch on the forehead, then was knocked down by *CHIN SHOTS* so again i don't understand why your being sarcastic, because your wrong.

So all the shots Taylor landed were directly on the temple/eardrum?

Is that what we are saying?

What was the excuse for Zuniga flooring Pavlik?

It was a left hook on the chin from Taylor that toppled Pavlik "If I remember right"

Kelly Pavlik was caught hard with an equilibrium shot coming in with a counter right hand. And from my memory yes Pavlik was hit alot of times on the temple and on the top of the head during Taylor's furious exchange.........

Totally different to Khan who was floored with a right hand to the nose, then a left hook to the chin if i remember rightly ? then he was floored again by a left hook, and also the difference is with Amir Khan he was caught with a *GRAZING SHOT* to the forehead which got him in trouble, which was a bit of a mystery because it didn't look like much of a punch.

Caught cold in the first round similar to Hopkins vs Calzaghe knockdown.

Danny Williams wasn't caught on the temple neither was Judah Ice
