I think a Kessler/Pavlik fight would be too close to call. Kessler can fight smart and he has a good edge in speed while Pavlik seems to have better power and workrate. Tough fight for both.

I honestly see Pavlik beating Abraham fairly easily. Abraham simply goes in a shell way too often and Pavlik is great at threading a needle. Abraham does have a decent chance of landing something big though. I still cannot figure out why Abraham goes into such a heavy shell. I actually find it very frustrating to watch as he would be really something if he came out swinging like Zertuche did
