Arthur Abraham vs KElly Pavlik?

Question

Both undefeated and both great fighters, pavlik the more well known, he is a KO aritst and KO'ed taylor, miranda, and beat taylor again on pts. Abraham who is another big hitter beat miranda by controversal decision but has beat top opponents since and will have a rematch with edison at 166 and will keep his title win or loss. Many argue when pavlik fought miranda, thtat miranda was battling to keep at 160 and when he fought abraham he was a natural 160. Miranda is one of the most underrated fighters, he almost Knocked out the rising star allan green, and some thought beat abraham. So who would win between both miranda conquerors Kelly Pavlik or Arthur Abraham?

Answer 1

Abraham should win.  Jermain Taylor had Pavlik out on his feet but the ref let it go on. Abraham is the better boxer and will beat Pavlik easier than most people think.

Answer 2

Pavlik easy.

P.S. Allan Green was very ill when he fought Miranda. He had most of his intestines removed not long afterwards.

Answer 3

With a name like Kelly, you had better be tough.

Answer 4

arthur abraham is underrated but also untested, in his only step up, he got POUNDED by edison miranda, who was later eaten alive by pavlik, but abraham has a great chin and showed grit and heart in what should of been a loss to miranda, on a side note if miranda had no problem making 160 versus abraham, he would have no problem making 160 for pavlik eight months later, bodys dont grow that quickly, especially at mirandas age (26 i think), pavlik would just be to much for abraham, crippling power, a huge reach, decent boxing skills, abraham is good at getting inside on big guys but i cant see him recovering well from an inside pavlik uppercut (jermain took two and the ref didnt even bother with a 10-count), this fight will be abraham doing enough to stay in the fight but getting repeatedly rocked and losing a decision, possibly a kayo in the 11th or 12th

Answer 5

This is a great question, this is the only match at 160 that i am interested in seeing, this is the battle between the two best at that weight and a match that should be made. Im pretty sick of seeing questions posed saying that Pavlik is this and Pavlik is that he hasnt proved it in his own division yet. I have no doubt that he is going to be very good but to me he has to prove it at his own weight first he has looked a very raw talent to me against Miranda and Taylor all good victorys that could of quite easily been losses. I think Abraham will be a true test that will show us how good Pavlik is and im not too sure that he could come through that one.
