I was not impressed with AA beating Miranda, other than the KO he was doing nothing in the fight. He is very strong but very slow. Credit him for taking the fight and coming to the US but he would lose to Pavlik.

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
.....NO
Next question please
I would like to find out, why is this fight not being made? Both Abraham and Kessler must be next on Pavlik's list
...maybe because since beating Miranda twice Arthur Abraham is being a little bitch and fighting only in Germany when he COULD be a huge star fighting in America every now and then.
Abraham has fought these fighters since first win over Miranda: Sebastian Demmers, Khoren Gevor, Wayne Elcock, Elvin Ayala, and he's scheduled to fight RAUL MARQUEZ next !!!!!! As you may remember Raul got TKO'd by Jermain Taylor!
Mikkel Kessler has settled back into the same routine as Abraham...he fought Andrade and Calzaghe and then is back to fighting bums.
Kelly Pavlik fighting Hopkins is bigger and more dangerous than anything those guys have done
I think Abraham and Kessler are the only two up for the job at the weight, Hopkins might do the job, although he competed for most of his career at Middleweight, he has filled into the Light Heavyweight frame very well and looked very strong against Calzaghe for the first few rounds, but should Pavlik survive the first 4-5 rounds he should go on to out work Hopkins.
Abrahams hasn't really got the credit he deserved until the Miranda massacre, he is strong a good boxer and carries decent power, would be a great fight wouldn't like to put my money on either of them probably a 50-50 fight

No way Kessler should be next. They are both still young but time
is running out for Calzaghe. If Pavliks stops Hopkins his immidate next should be Calzaghe in a PPV payday then with a final fight in 160 with Abraham or Strum. Strum would never fight him so that would not happen I would love to see Pavlik own all the 160 belts though . There is no question he can do it. He is the biggest, strongest, busiest , most conditioned middle weight out there.

I don't think Pavlik will ever see 160 again....I think he's 168-175 for right now
