    But is he capable of improvements? Anyone can change. It is changing for the better that you're hoping for -- and I don't see much unfulfilled potential. He has good concentration, determination, good defense for his level of coordination and body-type, good accuracy for his handspeed and is basically (in my opinion) overperforming already. He's maxed out.

    If he were a better athlete, if he was blessed with better genes, more explosive, faster hands, more fluid coordination, he could grow. As is, I stick to what I said -- he's as good as he's gonna get.

    And that's okay in my book. I'm a fan, but I know his limitations, and don't demand he becomes something he cannot.

    :good You know your ****, fo' sho'.

    But wouldn't you like to see him set back and box a little if ever in with a ATG Master Counterpuncher/Defense genius a little?

    Like you said earlier, B-Hops corner said: "Kelly is coming! He is not scared of an ass whooping!"

    throw a fork in that **** and make B-Hop come to him a little, you know?

    Or not?

    You are right, no drastic changes at all. But ****, a little plan B would be nice to atleast try out once in a while, IMO.

    Lowe has stated he knows what fans want to see. This IS show business at the end of the day. Of course if the wins don't come, the show is canceled. :lol:

    It would be good to see Pavlik get back on track, a loss at that weight to Hopkins is not the end of the world. If he can get a couple of wins under his belt, he's another exiting name around that weight to look forward to watching.

    I made a thread about the Pavlik hype 2 weeks ago, I had to keep bumping it up cause no one would participate in ti. Kelly Pavlik is a joke.

    He went up to get 3 mil? Man, even after the fight Pavlik himself said he felt more comfortable at 170 & that the weight wasn't the problem. & he was favored like 4 to 1 so dont give me that BS. You sound like you're his cousin or something.

    Answer the question. If he is a joke, YOU ARE???????? He'll be retired with more money than you ever dreamed of having by the time he is 30. Linear middle weight champ. You think he is a joke? Come on. Where does that put YOU. You want to bust on him? Give us an honest assessment on YOURSELF if KP is a "joke".

    No one wanted to participate your hater thread. It was you people did want to deal with, not the subject matter. As a poster you rank somewhere between English_Titan and UnbeatableFloyd. It is obvious that you have the personality of an absolute *******, and it is equally obvious that you have learned nothing during the 3 weeks you have followed boxing.

    First, we all know Kelly was not 100%. If he was it would have been a good, possibly great, fight. Second, In my opinion there is no reason to teach a stalker to outbox a slick boxer. It's better and easier to just make him a better stalker.
