Pavlik- if he was so ill, why did he fight?

spinal.

 

I'm going to go with what Pavlik said himself right after the fight !!

"My stamina was fine" !!I'll use the source first before I listen to the hugger :good

 

The words for today are "Silly Catchweight Fights...for aging boxers."
For example, If Bernard Hopkins fights Kelly Pavlik at Kelly's middleweight belt level, and beats him, then people can provide all the accolades to Hopkins. Right now with these catchweight fights its all about the money and proves little. Boxing is becoming more like wrestling with these silly fights, e.g., Pacman vs De La Hoya. Oh, Hopkins TKO's De Lay Hoya...does that make De La Hoya one dimensional ?
BHop and Pavlik proved nothing. Pavlik still has the middleweight belt. And, a nice fat paycheck. It's all showmanship, snake oil and mirrors. Let BHop fight Kelly P at the middleweight level for the championship. In fact, let
BHop fight any champion at the respective weight class for all the marbles, then when he becomes a champion again we can all say how great he is. These catchweight fights just provide aging fighters like BHop with a few more pay days. They are basically exhibition fights with no meaning, no title belt on the line, and have no impact on historical greatness.
I don't recall if Ali, Marciano, L. Lewis,
Tony Zale, R. Graziano, Sugar Ray, fought at these catchweight fights for non-title belts. Maybe they did. But, it seems boxing has changed and these fights are more or less a day at the gym for these professionals who can easily pull the wool over your eyes.
If I was a 26 year old middleweight champion (with many more fights on the horizon) and I was offered 3 million to fight a 43 year old and my belt was not on the line, hell yeah--I'll take the money.

Just my opinion.

10-4 STAND corrected. Nah, I don't want any of your sister. That ***** would whip me..........

 

I don't even think Double A wants any part of her ..Now that Marquez has pulled out( due to injury)
the Double A fight I think its time to get the negotiations under way for the unification bout with the Ghost !

 

it was spinal-----------damn
