he rushes in and gets caught everywhere by hopkins. calzaghe would make light work of him.

Jeah pretty sure cal would pull off a lacye-sque performance against pavlik going on this fight. I don't know kelly should stay at 160 that's where he belongs, his punches don't seem to have the same snap, and this is the second time he's above 160 not using his double jab! Also how the fuck does 43 year old bhop outthrow you, if he fought like this he would have never lost his belts...all props to hop and pav better work on learning to throw something else than just a jab followed by a straight right.
His gangly punches couldn't get going against hopkins. No punch production whatsoever. Disappointing for pavlik. I knew hopkins had speed but i've never seen him this good in a long time. Taylor had somewhat of an easy time with hopkins and pavlik had a fairly easy time with taylor. You just never know what's going to happen in sports. Calzaghe would beat pavlik. Terrible showing for pavlik.
Who knows maybe pavlik got to many "yes" men round him...I mean it was weird people having booblehead dolls of him at the stadium and what not...I hope this defeat doesn't mentally crush pavlik as he's a good fighter I think, unpolished but nothing that can't be fixed, and why did he negate his double jab again![]()
Hopkins must have been in the zone tonight because pavlik handled taylor and taylor handled hopkins. Pavlik couldn't land hardly anything while taylor landed a fair amount against hopkins. Styles make fights.
Man - didn't see that coming. Hopkins was awesome - so much for Pavlik's workrate taking him home. I thought Pav would win a UD.That was an absolute walkover - Pavlik had his heart taken from him. Hope it doesn't permanently ruin him.
I saw it happening originally, then people on here, made me think a little more of Pavlik, but they were wrong, and I won't listen to them anymore.
Pavlik againt Calzaghe is a totally different ball game, Hopkins had the perfect style against Pavlik, he is slick, he disrupts rhythm and he doesn't get hit. Calzaghe gets hit, He prefers rhythmic fights, and he isn't super slick. I think Calzaghe wins, but its a much harder fight then this one was for Bernard, I think Bernard is better then JOe, and that he deserved the nod because he was landing real punches.
