I've read a few reports on this fight being a done deal with Bute vs. Miranda in a split feed co-feature.

Kelly Pavlik vs. Sergio Martinez Terms Reached For 4/17 - Boxing News

What has surprised me is that the majority believe Martinez will outbox him and stop him. I like Pavlik's style but I think he's reached his ceiling and I think his team know this, or they would have put him in with Abraham or Williams before now. Pre-Hopkins, I think Arum believed his man was the second coming of Tommy Hearns. Now, he'll milk him for all he's worth. I think this is an interesting fight, but I wouldn't count Pavlik out. He does have numbing power and his chin should hold up throughout this fight. At least he's taken a challenge against a live body, so for now I won't hate on him anymore than I previously have.
