    i agree with this. remember Kessler turned down Bute's offer too and and decided to fight Steiglitz in Germany.

    Way different to do it at the last minute and force Showtime to cancel the whole TV card they had planned for Saturday. The US networks (SHO and HBO) will be very reluctant to deal with him in the future. He looked like crap in his last fight anyway -- he was going to get his ass beat by Bute. And I have no idea who he (or anyone on this thread supporting his decision) thinks he's going to fight for better money than he'd get against Bute. He seems to think he ought to be in line for the Froch/Ward winner, which is a joke (even more so now).

    I agree in that its one thing to back out of hte fight months beforehand, and quite another to do it the week of.

    He looked like crap in his first fight at the weight and his first fight in over a year coming out of rehab. I mean if you're going to look like crap, that's when it would happen.

    Pavlik wants to take control of his career and there's nothing wrong with that, but it was horribly planned and horribly executed. His manager, not his promoter, should take some heat for this too. I think that's Cameron Dunkin. Maybe Pavlik has really lost it.
