Froch Vs Pavlik

[teddy007]

According to Arum. If Pavlik fights and beats Sturm and Froch fights and beats Bute that fight will be made for early 2010. That would be a great styles matchup. Froch will win a hard fought decision imo. Thoughts?

Close decision win for either sounds likely to me. Could Froch cope with Pavlik's work rate? Pavlik might even be re-energised going through a proper training camp to make 168 lbs. Proper slugfest. I'd love it. DD

Also, it'd be nice to see Pavlik beat Sturm.

Personally I think he'll fight Abraham first. At least I hope so.

IMO there's too many good fights at 160 for him; Sturm (yes he's over-rated, but another trinket to win) and Williams. Maybe even Wright.

Sounds like a good idea. Maybe Arum would give a bit of advice: don't fight Hopkins as it will eff these plans up.

If Arum is already talking of a 168 fight, Pavlik might be ready to move up, with scant pickings & weight making down at 160.

Froch v Pavlik would be a wild war, especially if neither try to avoid shots. Would be another fight to make Enzo C throw a fit - another guy Calzaghe didn't face!

Abraham is such a strong & vicious guy. I would favour him to beat Pavlik, although I think Arthur is struggling big time to make 160lbs, so it could catch up with him! Going by the way he performed when he fought Miranda at a limit of 166lbs, I think Abraham will be even better when he moves to SMW, which cannot be more than two fights away, surely?

[Autobarn]

reckon weight making has beaten abraham just about. he has power but not the stamina to finish anyone good off.

Beating Bute is a big "if." Is that fight even signed yet? You gotta admire Froch's attitude though - he could have easily had two "gimme" defences in Nottingham by now but instead assuming he beats Bute he will have had potentially Pascal, Taylor, Bute and Pavlik in a row! RESPECT!

"What more do you want" Froch is a warrior. I just love the commentary from the Americans in the last round of the Taylor fight.

"I`m coming back to England Mom and I`m keeping my title". I watch that regulary on you tube. Top stuff.

I think Froch will get to Pavlik early doors. Bute worries me more, but not as much as Hopkins. Hopkins would negate him for the whole fight and take him for a comfortable points win.

Would be a good fight for Pavlik think he would probably win hes really fit and has a very good chin I dont think Froch could KO him and Pavlik would outbox him and win on points imo

[Captain Hook]

I think he'll have a war with Bute and sneak it.....I actually think he'd do better v Pavlik as he is vastly overrated with awful footwork and speed. He looked rubbish last time out and we all know what happened v Hopkins.

I just hope Carl's chin doesn't let him down because he's going to need it against these guys..

[Counter-puncher]

i think Carl could knock Pavlik out.

For some reason, I need to keep watching that.

"Oh my goodness!!!!!!"

If Froch beats Bute then I would have no doubts that Froch would beat Pavlik.
