Can Kelly Pavlik do damage at 175?

[Pugilistic]

well if he kos hopkins which is a possibility he should stay there cause he will have a bigger name at 175 which will draw him into bigger fights like a dawson fight or even calzaghe if he isnt afraid. and believe me kelly wants to ko hopkins so he can put pressure on joe to fight him cause alot of people still say hopkins won the fight.

I don't see why people think Hopkins getting Ko'd is a possibility.

Pavlik may have good power at 160 but as his second fight with Taylor showed it doesn't carry plus the fact he is a slow accumulation puncher and Hopkins is hard as fuck to hit Cleanly. Pavlik will not land enough to put Hopkins in any trouble.

Pavlik fighting Hopkins is the biggest mistake he has ever made.

Him fighting Calzaghe would be another mistake.

Calzaghe just has the perfect style to beat him and i'm surprised people actually give him a chance against joe.

I don;t think moving up to 175 will lessen his power any or his punches effect. What he has to worry about is at 175, much of the physical advantages he enjoys at 160 are gone as the opponents are just bigger. You also have to wonder about how durable he will be at 175 when it comes to taking his opponents punches.

Kelly hasn't fought at 175 before. So we don't know whether he can be a force or not. It's all ifs and buts. We will only found out once he fights at that weight.

Calzaghe is open to the right hand, he has proved that in the past. Kelly has a lethal right hand, he has proved that in the past.

Hopkins knocked Calzaghe down with a right. Kelly Pavlik hits 10 x more harder than Hopkins. So if Hopkins can put Joe on his ass it's a scary thought what Pavlik could do.

I believe he'll carry some pop up... People seem to forget that these are both guys that fought the majority of their careers at MW... It's not like you have a MW coming up to fight a natural LHW... Pavlik is a big MW and will translate well to 175.
