What is with this site and Kelly Pavlik

[Youngblood]

I also think there are guys around his weight category (Chad Dawson, Glen Johnson, Mikkel Kessler, Joe Calzaghe) who will school him, and even Bernard stands a good chance of beating Pavlik on Saturday night.

Because he is exciting and he is a puncher, punchers are always the most loved amongst fans. Julian Jackson, Nigel Benn, Thomas Hearns, etc. And he is also a nice guy outside the ring so he is easy to root for and like. [/quote]

Yep, this more then anything got me liking him beyond his skills and style, which I also like. Most of his talking is done in the ring, and to me he is a humble, yet confident person. I've never really been a fanatic type fan, am sorta new to it all to be honest and frank. So I will not suggest Kelly is the best thing that has happened to boxing since...etc. etc.

I just like the guy as a person, and respect his skill.
