Pav is not an impressive total finisher,way to many over hand rights imo. Rubio wants out in a big way....He just no mased on stool.Fights over.Suprised with that total domination and control that Pavlik could not flatten him frankly ??

Rubio is just trying to go the distance it seems. He's getting beat on like moving punching bag. He felt the power and was in survive mode. Hmm I'm glad I didn't pay for this shit =P
Good wins for Cotto and Pavlik. Both totally in control and fighting smart.
Jennings wasn't good enough, but no shame in that. Rubio is an odd one, but again did as much as he could.
Enjoyable fights to watch. Good to see both bounce back well.
Rubio just didnt have the power to hurt him
I'm not too keen on the interview technique here.![]()
Good performance from Pavlike dominated from the first bell. Suprised he didn't finish the job but his relentless pressure was clearly far too much for an overmatched Rubio.
and Rubio is no joke, taking away Arthur Abraham he was as about a credible challenge at 160 as you can get. Winky is fighting Williams, maybe the winner of that is a good matchup, Felix would never get in the ring with Rubio let alone Pavlik so who else.
A rematch with Hopkins? On the back of tonights performance I'd imagine a Calzaghe fight would be attractive if he could be tempted back.
Between the two, Cotto had the better showing. Cotto fought like nothing had happened and had his man in trouble then took him out.
Pavlik on the other hand came out of the gate firing and also put the loss behind him. Rubio sat on the ropes the whole fight and he definitely should've knocked him out but didn't. I like how Pavlik mixed in some body shots in his arsenal but in the end he still relies on the jab + straight right too much.
Thats true too,Rubio fought sheepish from the get go,Just would like Pavlik to find different gears off his natural power.He dominated,back on track so looking forward to next go.Rubio has shown more in past but really outgunned
And Ray Mancini makes Max Kellerman come across as one of the best interviewers ever![]()

Thnak God for the mute button. After listening to Charlie Steiner for the first and hopefully last time, it went on and stayed on.
The, after listening the to the motor mouth offerings of Ray Manicini, it went on again.
For $ 50 bucks, I expect better announcing. These guys were grim.

I wonder about pavlik staying at 160.Not exactly a stacked division.The only fight I see is Pavlik vs. Abraham.I think David Lopez is his mandatory ??Respect to steady Sturm but....Was Pavs problem more weight or More Hopkins up a division?
Rubio put in a no show, he is another Arum fighter so.....naw I'm j/k Pavlik just pounded him you could see him punching his arms but Rubio was still wincing. He was making Rubio knock himself out just punching his gloves full force. The few times he did catch Rubio, he hurt him.
