well too early for Degale a fight of this level. Even if Pavlik is weak at the momment with losing fights and coming out of rehab. Pavlik after he beat Taylor had the 160 weight class under his feet. He was going to good places. Could we ever see this in pavlik again? well the top fighters have found out he is fairly 2 demisonal and this will effect him at the top level. However he would be a tough fighter with his power punching and relentless pressure for any fighter at 160-168. I believe he would be too much for an inexperience Degale at the top level, maybe in a year or two Degale will beat him safely, but right now no. Degale needs to get more domestic names under his belt and top european level fights and throughout 2011 i want to see good progression which has shown in 2010. There is no need to rush because by mid to late 2012 with the way he is progressing now he will definatly be in contention for a world title shot. Degale needs to keep his focus and he will be a world champion within no time. Put please Degale keep away from Pavlik for the time being.
