Actually Pavlik is taking a big risk here...if he for some reason(whatever that may be)looses he will be the biggest laughing stock in boxing..like Mundine/Ottke...Did anybody think of this ?!?!

I thought about it, and i know in boxing that anyone has a chance.. a puncher's chance.. but if JT couldn't get Pavlik out of there after what he did to him, and if Pavlik can take shots from Edison Miranda and keep coming forward, then i have no reason to believe that even if Mora catches Pavlik with three perfect shots in succession that he could drop Pavlik.. Mora has fast hands and a wide stance so he gets in and out pretty fast, but he has that lunging approach with his jab and lead right hands, and i think Pavlik will just see that and catch him on the way in BAD..

only thing worst than a Pavlik straight right hand, is when you lean into a Pavlik straight right hand

I like Mora, but this is a terrible fight for him. Pavlik is not an old Forrest, this'll be ugly... I think Mora is a more legitimate opponent than Rubio though.

True especially with some of the shocking upsets we've seen this year.....still i think even if pavlik tried to throw this fight he would knock mora out on accident. Never thought he'd beat forrest so i can't say never though.

Knock him out on accident

That shiet made me laugh out loud.

You don't think Mora can pull this off do you?
I am sorry but with Kelly at 50 percent he will still knock Mora out. I give all credit to Mora he's got balls but this is suicide.If Mora beats Pavlik this will be the biggest upset of all time.No question in my mind.

[PRIDE OF BOSTON]

Suicide... R.I.P., Sergio...

At least you got to hold a belt for a few months

wow.. if this happens.. wow.. SOOOO Pumped for this..

i mean, first and foremost, props for Mora if he takes this fight..

but truth be told, i cannot wait for Pavlik to knock this guys head off..

I assume Mora is moving up for this?.. 160.. for someone who doesn't hit hard at all, to fight one of, if not THE hardest hitter in the weight class above him takes some balls..

[:::PSL:::]

Tough one for Mora

Honestly...I'd like to see this fight...just not right now...no...take that back...I'd like to see it right now & then lead into Pavlik vs Abraham.

The September & October dates totally scuttle the chances of Abraham fighting Pavlik...then again...so does the mandatory shot against Marquez on Abraham's end.

I reckon the way to look at it in positive light is to cross fingers on both camps using each other's matches to drum up publicity for each other.

Hope so i would to see Sergio Mora get sparked out.
