“Now, [Williams] will be fighting Sergio Martinez in a 3,500-seat ballroom and we’ll be fighting at home. That tells you who the draw is.”

Gee I wonder why your able to get a better draw in that shit hole that has nothing else going for it? Impeccable logic... not! Sorry, if I offended any Youngstonians, but what a douche.

I am hard pressed to think of anyone in boxing who I dislike more than Jack Loew. Criminals like Panama Lewis and Margarito excluded of course.

Stoney Stone? Enzo Calzaghe? Rock Neuman? Lou Duva?.....Loew is working his way down to their level

By doing this Pavlik will have lost close to all credibility & most importantly, I'd wonder if he has now really burnt his bridges with HBO. They clearly told Williams that they needed a 6 week delay to fight again & now he's fighting a fortnight later

I've been critical of Williams of late, for dragging Martinez up to 160, although I feel this is more to do with Williams no longer being able to make either 147 or 154, but with Pavlik doing this he's royally taken the piss. I'm done with him, he's now on my irrational hate list.

I actually give PW a hell of a lot of credit for taking this fight

There is nobody at 160 other than the dodger pavlik to fight. He could conceivably of used this to bolster his rep on HBO and put himself in with a sylvester or lorenzo who he would of just tore through.

Instead he`s fighting one of the top guys at 154

Except he's fighting him at 160. For a guy who's apparently a Welterweight, that's just bullshit.
