And they're ugly.

yeah i agree fightfan, pavlik is very similar to louis in certain ways, forcing guys to go on the back foot and looking for opportunies to throw bombs.

I think Pavlik has some similarities to Monzon.

Another guy with some simiarities to Monzon is Vitali Klitschko. They both have that ugly, awkward style. They gauge their reach and distance well, lean back from shots
