Jack Loew: I don't like the Mora fight, Abraham would be easy work.

''Double up on the ****ing jab Kelly''

 

Hey Thunder -- make me a list of all the fighters against whom KP made the double jab work who finished on their feet. I'll wait right here, 'cuz it's gonna be a short list:hey

 

None that I can think off.

 

Actually, I've heard this in a lot of corners. Nothing original with Jack on this one. We should start keeping that list. I even saw a fight on ESPN Classic where the corner kept repeating that. :yep

 

i dont like the mora fight either but u know lets do it and get it over with , then that will be pretty much the end of mora....

 

A year ago I would have agreed with you. Right after Kelly won the titles, Mora supposedly called his brother and said, "I gotta fight this guy. I've got the right style to beat him." I can't stand this clown, and I would love to see somebody put him out of his misery. However, putting Mora out of his misery is a job more suited to Zuniga or Rubio than it is to the middleweight champion of the world. If Kelly signs this, it will be the first fight of his I missed since he first got my attention when he stopped McKart.

 

Reg, allegedy is allegedy...you know better than that. Second, Forrest is irrelevant to mention imo whether the fight is made with AA or not. You can call AA a paper champ till you turn blue in the face lol...but Taylor is the one who decided not to fight his mandatory. Who said calling a man out makes you a legit champion? And finally, Ali was not stripped for NOT fighting his mandatory. Your point is very extreme. Reg, not for nothing...I consider you a good poster, and we'll have to agree to disagree on this one.

 

When loew starts to talk...lol, that is when I become truly confident that AA ko's Pav lol...

 

Pavlik should not be fighting Mora, there are way better fights out there.

 

you forgot..."come on" lol...

 

So Reg, by that reasoning we would have no current Heavyweight champ as Marciano retired undefeated and no one beat him to become the champ.

And we can never again have a SMW champ as Calzaghe retired undefeated.

And didn't Floyd retire without losing the lineal Welter wt title ?



The fact is, both AA and KP have belts.

KP's has , IMO, a little more legitimacy because of how he got it.

But that legitimacy is running out like sand in a timer, so long as he avoids AA.

The reasons for the avoidance eventually become unimportant.

Arum. Business. $$$, mandatories, whatever.

If 2009 ends without this fight being made, despite AA's pressing, I don't believe too many will consider Kelly the man at 160.

 

A very good post:good

 

How can Pavlik be a champ if he is running away from AA? Either Team Pavlik are cowards or they're unable to tell their management (Arum) what they want (Abraham???). No more excuses!

 

Like no other champ has ever made a contender wait before? I'm pretty sure Arum laid it out for Saurland about making the most money on this fight since these two deserve it. That is why Saurland already had Forrest lined up. Arum has said for a long time he thought this should be a big payday for both guys. And if you listen to most on this board, they think after these two fight they should both move up anyhow? atsch So why even make the fight at middle if they should both be fighting at SMW? atsch Somedays this board just gets me down.
