Looks like the Pavlik/Duddy fight is off for June

[Deanrw]

I don't think he can get himself back into fight mode by then. Arum said the same thing here: Duddy takes beating in victory, perhaps putting Pavlik next - USATODAY.com

I wonder if Arum should give Winky a call?

This wouldn't even be a proper fight. Putting Duddy in the ring with Pavlik is only going to hasten Duddy's trip to the grave.

Winky Wright would be an interesting match-up. But I think Pavlik deserves a few good pay-days as he's shown definitive grit and shocked a lot of naysayers.

[Violent Demise]

Duddy shouldn't be allowed anywhere near Pavlik.

[Mr. Cosell]

I guess if I was being matchmaker, I think Pavlik should fight Sakio... it's kind of a given seeing as how Calzaghe got some exposure by ravaging Manfredo from Contender. I think Pavlik could get a good payday and some decent exposure by taking out Bika, and I'm sure Sakio wouldn't mind the good payday as well.

i think pavlik would rather defend his belt than fight at smw I'd like to see him as the unified champ

[OumaFan]

Good for Duddy. If they put him in its pretty much just a cash out fight.

[hattonation]

Hopefully Wink will be put in there

Pavlik could offer sergio mora a fight, altho he'd probably just knock it back....

[WelshDevilRob]

The fight makes sense from a financial point of view and it should be an impressive KO win for Pavlik. I'd rather see him fight John Duddy rather than the rumoured match with the shot Felix Trinidad.

Anyway Gary 'Rocket' Lockett is the mandatory contender so will be good to see Pavlik fight in Wales later this year.

As I stated in a different thread right after the fight, even though Duddy won last night, I think that this cut is going to prevent him from fighting Pavlik. I don't think he would be cleared in time to train properly for a June fight against Pavlik.



Although I don't think Duddy is ready for Pavlik, I think that it would be an entertaining fight, since Duddy is not afraid to brawl.

And since we know that Tito won't go down to 160, because he can't make that weight anymore, I also have to wonder if Winky will price himself out, he has been demanding too much lately, so I don't know if this is fight that can be made.

So I don't know where Uncle Bob will go next. I guess it's anyone's guess now.

We all know Bika's wife wouldn't mind a big payday from a Pavlik fight. She doesn't see $$$ signs, only McDonalds signs

Winky is an option at some point for Pavlik, but I doubt for the fight in June. Pavlik's coming off a big win over Miranda and the two over Taylor, I think Arum wants him to get in one easier fight, before taking on a bigger challenge in the fall.

I don't think Arum/Pavlik will go right to Winky like Taylor did after his two wins over Hopkins. If Pavlik can't get Abraham to fight him in the fall, maybe Winky steps in there.

Legion that is utter bullshit. She definately see's the Hungry Jacks ones too.

That is a bad cut, it would be a big ask to have that ready for June.

[Deanrw]

That cut looks to be about 2 inches long and down to the bone. It is a bad one.
