Watched A Vid Of The Press Conference And Hopkins Yells At Pavlik At The End Of The Confernce " Hey Take It Easy On Me" Hahaha Funny Shit.
Perhaps Hopkins is only playing "Mr Nice Guy" because he wants Pavlik to think he's washed up and intimidated? ;)
Could this be his ultimate master plan? ???
Drunken master technique?
Hopkins is just doing that to build Pavlik up. IMO Hopkins sees a weakness and has a plan, he knows what he's doing.
Yes his plan is "Damn when that right hand hits flush I will find comfortable spot on the canvas", but before all that in the corner he will ask " Shit did that check clear yet".Quote:

His is trying to play the good guy this time. The last fight with Joe was a PR disaster for him with his racist rhetoric so he wants to be loved. It is a ploy which I hope he pulls off.
Plus he can't use his "I'll never be beaten buy a white guy" line again, because, well, he already got beaten buy a white guy...Quote:

Hopkins wants Pavlik to be over-confident. The easier the fight Pavlik thinks it will be, the harder the fight it will become.
I think Kelly is smart enough to ignore whatever mind games Hopkins is playing.
I'd venture to say Pavlik is taking this fight just as seriously as any fight he's had to date. He knows what Hopkins brings in the ring, and in the whole pre-fight buildup, and I would imagine he'll train as hard as he ever has, if not harder.
If he thinks Hopkins is an old, shot has-been, than he is a fool. He'll be in for a rude awakening if he comes to the fight 1/2 assed.

I must be the only person in the world that think Hopkins is going to win. Even though he looked like shit against joe i think he will pull this off. Everyone seen this movie before where one fighter is hyped up so much and they suppose to destroy their opponent then end up losing. I know kelly is hearing all day how is going to destroy hopkins. After awhile it get kinda hard to not pay that shit any attention and after a while i think he is going to start to believe it. He will go in there too comfortable and realize he is against an opponent like no other. B hop is a very smart fighter and i think he will find a way to pull this off. I just want add that i am very drunk right now and might now have these same feelings tomorrow. ;D
I think Hopkins is going 2 win this! I dont think were the only 2 mate!Quote:
