Pavlik to Face Winky Wright June 7th

[ICB]

I can't wait to see him knock out that crying bitch. BOXINGTALK half way down

It all depends on how Pavlik approches this fight, if he just goes head hunting which he has done in the past, then he could be in for a rough night. But if he goes to the body to good effect like Vargas did very well against Wright, then i can see Pavlik stopping Wright late on. I can also see Pavlik's straight shots getting through Wright's guard ocassionally.

I agree ICB.. If Pavlik goes in and tries to throw a million punches to the arms of Wright then I don't care what his output is, he'll lose cause Wright will throw back.. I don't see this being a great matchup for either guy, but i would favor Winky to win.. Pavlik should just fight guys who come to battle it out, like kessler/andrade/miranda/lacy.. guys that he will be able to hit and not play games with.. Pavlik obviously already beat miranda, and i think he could easily beat Lacy.. Kessler would def give him problems, but andrade would be a hell of a fight..

I don't think Winky has a lot left tbh, this will be pretty one sided, though Winky's defence should make it last long enough.

If this happens then I think this is the toughest test Pavlik has faced yet. Not sure others would look at it that way including maybe Pavlik since he would be the likely favorite.

I want this fight really bad as a boxing fan. As a Winky Wright fan, there is no fight that makes more sense for Winky or his fans right now then Pavlik, I want this fight EXTREMELY bad.

I would love to see him fight Abraham in a effort to try to unify the division. I think this would be a slug fest and Abraham has one of the best chins in the division. I believe Pavlik has the best chin and the best punch. He dosen't have a great defense , but who needs that kind of a defense when you have a arsenal for a offense. After he unifies the division he should jump to 168 and beat super Joe into retirement. My opinion Kessler is a poor mans version of Pavlik. I believe he is one of the best pound for pound today and no one will give him that even thou he beat a pound for pound guy twice. Taylor looked depressed. And Pavlik has no end. The kid could probally go 20 rounds .......who knows. He is a very skilled boxer. He has a world class chin and according to Arum he is the hardest hitting middleweight he has ever seen. I think Hagler is stronger but he gets paid to say that. He has all the tools to be a all time great.

He is on the verge of greatness and is on top right now, so he's too good for me to like him now. no seriously he's one of my favorite fighters currently and I think he is building a damn good rep right now, not alot of doubters now, like back in the Miranda fight days. Remember I was one of the few who picked him to beat Miranda and then Taylor both by k.o., I only picked Taylor in the rematch because I kind of felt sorry for him and he's a decent guy...I got a thing for underdogs....

This should be a good and close fight. I believe Winky will manage to avoid the KO and I give him chances of winning if he fights smart. Winky will need to use all his defensive skills.

You know what funny is that many people on here act as if Pavlik is a knockout artist and that amuses me because he in no way is a one puch KO fighter & INO doesn't even posses the KO power as some of the fighters he has faced, nor is he on the same skill level as Winky. He had alot of problems with Taylor's jab & Winky is that X10
