Kelly Pavlik wants Hopkins at 160

[CountryBoy]

I think 165 would be fair

Why should Hopkins have to make concessions to rematch a guy against whom he won every round against?

Thats like saying why does everyone want Pavlik to move up in weight. Well Hopkins is always asking for rematches, Why can't Kelly. I was absolutely gutted when Pavlik lost that fight with Hopkins. I would like to see him get his mojo back....lol

Pavlik wanted to make as much money as he could, thus he agreed to move up in weight to fight Hopkins. B-Hop took him to school, winning every round in one of the most impressive performances I have ever seen, now he should have to make concessions to fight a rematch? It doesn't make any sense. A rematch should be out of the question at any weight, the only thing Hopkins didn't do to Pavlik was stop him. If you're a fan of his, you should want him to stay far away from B-Hop.

I talk to Kelly on myspace alot, And they are trying to get Hopkins at 160

I don't think Hopkins can make 160 anymore and at his age its unfair on asking him too.

But Hopkins does not want that fight, I think it is only fair. It would be ten punds that Hopkins would have to lose respectively. What do you guys think.

Hopkins would beat Pavlik at any weight from middle to light heavy, Pavlik's style is tailor made for him.

Hopkins is always trying to get rematches that he lost, But he will never give fighters a rematch.

Out of Hopkins losses he has only been beat decisively once which was against Jones. Both fighters weren't at their best and a rematch would of been a great fight between two of the best fighters of their era.

Hopkins wanting rematches in the past against Taylor and Calzaghe is totally acceptable because of the fact they were close fights that could of gone either way.

Pavlik barely won a round against Hopkins, He was dominated.

Does he really deserve a rematch after the performance he put on......

I think that was Roy Jones' argument when he first started stomping for a rematch.

i dont think hopkins can make 160 but hopkins wud win , styles make fight not weight

[ClubberLang]

Even if Hopkins could still make 160, why would he need to take that fight? He dominated the first go-round. Pavlik doesn't deserve a rematch and Hopkins has nothing to gain from giving him one.

The difference is Hopkins was calling out Roy seven years after the first fight and was clearly a much improved fighter with a solid chance to win. Pavlik needs to reestablish himself and show some improvement before a rematch is palatable. And, of course, by that time Hopkins will probably be retired.

Pavlik is in no position to ask to even carry Bernard's spit bucket.

POINTLESS rematch. Kelly lost CONCLUSIVELY. He did not win even 1 round in my eyes.

All he's trying to do is hope that Hopkin's old body will be drained making 160 and he can capitalize. I think its a chicken shit move on HIS part.

[Spicoli]

Bad Idea.Hopkins is the shot caller and I Just can not see anything Pavlik can do to reverse things,not a chance.Pavlik should go after a guy like Marco A. Rubio....David Lopez.Ranked guys but at 160 he would fair well,get his shine & confidence back.

Forget alllllllll about Hopkins.Leave that alone Kelly.

[Youngblood]

I like Kelly Pavlik. I am a fan.

Seeing as you speak to him, I would like for you to give him some incentive via a word or two, as I'd like to see him do better. You tell him I said, "Hey Kelly. I am 14 years old and have better lateral movement then you. Please work on that."

Thank you.

why would hopkins want a rematch

Why would Pavlik want a rematch? He got embarrassed for 12 rounds. He should want no part of Hopkins again.

[Youngblood]

And if that doesn't work, my grandmother adds..."Hey Kelly. I am 68 and have a pin in my hip. I too have better lateral movement then you. We hope you'll consider working on that."

Thank you.
