Pavlik Vs Hopkins Poll

[Markusdarkus]

Pavlik can't hang with Kessler? That's ridiculous. Does Kessler have a chin to handle a Pavlik punch? He backed out of a fight with Miranda and fought two club fighters over the past year.

Bute has only one convincing win on his resume: Sakio Bika. A fight with Bute would never happen because who outside of Montreal knows anything about Bute?

I give Joe the edge in a fight with Pavlik although I was a bit dismayed he took the fight with RJJ rather than fight Pavlik, you should hope that isn't indicative of any doubt. Remember what Pavlik did to his stablemate. Didn't that guy retire after the fight?

Answer me this: what if Pavlik beats Bernard in a better fashion than Joe beat Bernard? Gains your respect?

Pavlik has my respect. I said unless he changes he wont beat Kessler. Taylor who is a 8rd fighter took Pavlik all the way. And again Kessler fights at 168lbs in no way will Pavlik be a murderous puncher at that weight.


The loony 10% of Kellys fans will be brought down to earth after Hopkins its a 50-50 fight and in no way one sided unless Hopkins lands a bomb.

You never answered the question posed: will you give KP credit if he beats Hopkins? What if he knocks out Hopkins?

Again, not that I'm saying either will happen.

Pavlik has my respect. If he beats Hopkins it goes up if he stops him it goes right up.

Again its styles, this version of Hopkins is going to be very hard for a straight foward fighter to beat him. Winky couldnt do it neither could Tarver. Pavlik has 3 basic punches a jab, right cross and uppercut. I think Hopkins will not have to try and solve Pavlik but Pavlik need to solve Hopkins.
