When Pavlik gets his head on can he beat Martinez?

I would like to see Pavlik back towards the top again.... I think physically he can still be there, he just needs a serious brain flush and refresh and start all over again...

In all the boxing I have watched, I have never seen the life and fire go out of a boxers eyes in the face of a loss than I saw in Pavlik after the B-Hop loss when Hopkins was giving him the talk about how he's still great, he just lost to an even greater fighter.....

Pavlik is an incredibly likable guy from a supportive city that doesn't raise to many champion boxers, and if it had not been for the loss to Hopkins, would still be incredibly loved I think.... But that was a perfect example of how mentally challenging it can be for boxers to deal with losses.... Of course the physical toll of a loss can be something, but some guys just lose an instinct and fire that they never get back after a loss....

You would think Pavlik won't be the same, but geez, KO'ing a few of the guys on Mick's or Biblo's lists and he could be able to refresh his brain and get back that slugger instinct that he had before...

Would love to see that again..

Just dont see it. I think he's shell shocked vs a tricky mover with quick hands and self belief. He needs to just get in the ring firstly....break cycle, maybe get outta hometown (??) and start rebuild. You only get so many do-overs.
