Kelly Pavlik's handlers inched closer to his next fight this week, narrowing the list of possible opponents to four: WBA middleweight champion Felix Sturm, WBC junior middleweight champion Sergio Martinez, former junior middleweight champion Winky Wright and WBO super middleweight champion Karoly Balzsay.

A fight against Balzsay could be at 168 pounds, while the other three would be at the 160-pound middleweight level.

The fight would take place in the fall, with Oct. 3 as the most likely date, and would air on HBO.
