When reasons were mentioned? Also how is Hopkins vs Pavlik not a close fight, Hopkins just came off an extremely close fight with Calzaghe that i felt he won, but either way was a close fight. I could see Pavlik winning, but to say Hopkins doesn't have an even or almost even chance is denying obvious facts that.
1) Hopkins makes everybody look bad
2) Hopkins has stunned Calzaghe and Tarver who both ahve better chins then Pavlik in their fights.
3) He has made a couple of the most skilled pressure boxers in boxing look bad in Winky and Calzaghe.
4) Hopkins style is a bad matchup for Pavlik
5) ITS BERNARD HOPKINS.
