Did you read the latest Ring Magazine's article on the fight? It is fair to say that it implied Hopkins may beat Pavlik. The age old adage rings true: styles make fights. Hopkins has a difficult style for Pavlik. Pavlik may bombard Hopkins with jabs and rights for about 5 rounds with Hopkins stealing a round or two, but what happens when Pavlik drops his guard a little bit and Hopkins counters with a hook? I am anxiously awaiting this fight. I really think it could go either way. If Pavlik drops or dominates Hopkins, he deserves the hype. If he loses, I don't think his stock goes down much. Remember Calzaghe beat Hopkins by split decision and Calzaghe is highly favored over Pavlik and already a sure-bet first ballot hall-of-famer (Hopkins is too).
