    For me its a toss up between Bute and Pavlik. Bute's fans overrated him ridiculously and it was great to see Froch steamroll him in one of the biggest manhandlings I've seen between to world class fighters

    And then watching Hopkins school Pavlik and expose that one dimensional 1-2 style was equally satisfying.

    Not sure how fighting your way to the top and winning the "LINEAL" title=hype.Pavlik earned what he got nothing was given to him...and he has fought all 12 rounds in both of his loses which were to an atg 10 pounds higher than his weight and to a top 5 p4p fighter in Martinez...............

    Michael Grant's "Hype" bubble bursting was kinda fun.

    Pavlik was hyped ridicously as some great white hope, the old country buy. The amount of time I heard YoungstownOhio, good ol fashioned....please. I didnt say he didnt work hard or earned his spot, he had some great performances.

    But I knew as soon as he stepped up to someone with skills and a gastank it was a wrap. Actually I should thank him he made me alot of money that night :yep

    Pavlik might have been hyped by wankers on the likes of caste football but he was no hype job. It wasnt his fault either, not like Pavlik came across as a racist.

    And there wasn't much hype surrounding Pavlik in the first place...

    i don't know if you're serious or not but if the fighter of the decade is just built up on hype, then everybody in boxing is a fraud.

    It was great to see Khan get ended, everyone had blinders on pretending he somehow became an iron-chinned warrior overnight
