I don't know...I just don't think Pavlik-Wright is that big of a fight...I think there should be some kind of build-up to it. I mean, let's say Pavlik fights and beats Wright...then what...who's next after that? Abraham? Then what? I think Wright should establish himself as a middleweight and get a win under his belt first...fight someone like Sturm, look good and dominant in the fight and give us a little hype leading up to a Pavlik fight. Hell, who knows...Wright might even lose to Sturm, who's a lot like Wright, and then all of sudden, Sturm becomes a player for a big clash with Pavlik. I just can't buy into these guys getting fights just on the sake of their name. I need some kind of build-up.

Wright draw (was robbed) with Taylor who was champion at the time, he's done enough in my eyes.

He schools Sturm who struggled with Griffin

Was he robbed though? I mean, personally, I think he was...but there are quite a few people out there who actually think it really was a draw.

And does he school Sturm? I don't know...I haven't really seen him since he lost Bernard...and honestly, I don't think he's the same fighter he once was. Again, don't get me wrong, technically, I think he should beat Sturm, but I'm just not so sure he does.

Just my opinion though.
