Pavlik pulls out of Aug 6th Fight!!! WTF. Anybody know?

[shza]

If I were Bute? I cancel the Pavlik fight RIGHT NOW!

Pavlik already did that. He pulled out of Saturday's fight and the Bute fight. Dude's career is over.

Jack Loew, quoted in this article (http://ringtv.craveonline.com/blog/1...ce-bute-next):

"Well, it is what it is,” Loew said. “He didn't show up for the run yesterday, but then we had a 10-to-2 p.m. workout scheduled for here [in Youngstown] at the Southside Gym. But he called me about 10 minutes before the workout and said, 'I'm not taking the Bute fight, and I'm not fighting on Saturday.’

"He said, 'Why should I fight Bute for $1.1 million if Kessler wouldn't take $3.5 million? And why should I fight Cunningham on Saturday if I'm not taking the Bute fight? So I'm not fighting either one of these guys.' That's the last conversation I had with Kelly.”
