Kelly Pavlik vs Arthur Abraham... Who wins?

[Addition]

This **** has to happen quickly...

Pavlik late TKO in a real war. I am very impressed with his power, and he has shown heart fighting with a broken jaw in the first fight. I just dont see pavlik losing right now.

Pavlik has the better technical skill and amazing workrate....They are pretty much even in the power department....They both have good chins and big hearts.....Abrahams problem is that he only fights in spurts....Pavlik punches non stop...Abraham can't beat Pavlik by decision with his low workrate, he needs a knockout to win.....I'd take Pavlik by UD or late TKO in a war.

Abraham has a good guard and could pick some of Pavliks shots off, but you never know but one thing is clear if Abraham gets Pavlik hurt like Taylor had him in their first fight, He's gonna stop him

When they fight, you and I gotta bet, buddy.

I'm sorry but I have never been sold on Pavlik. He just looks way too basic of a fighter to me, but I don't think Abraham would try to outbox him either. It's early and I might be a little hung up on the ease with which he destroyed Miranda tonight, but right now, gun to my head, I take Abraham on a late round TKO, say round 11.

Pavlik has arm reach and straight punches. He wont get as close as AA would like to try to unload his own power. Also, if he covers up he might absorb too much punishment given Kelly's 1-2.

I'd give a nod to AA in the chin department and that could be the deciding factor given both of their propensity to throw bombs. If I were absolutely forced to pick one I'd lean towards AA, but despite me having faith in him on this forum for a long time I'd have to seriously examine the match up more closely before feeling I came to a reasonable conclusion.

Yes...yes...yes

Abraham has more one-punch KO power. Pavlik has a long reach and quick punches that would really test Abraham's defense.

I think Pavlik's defense would enable Abraham to eventually land his best power punches.

It could go either way, but perhaps a late KO or TKO for Abraham.
