    I do not think its over for Kelly just because he lost to Hopkins, people need to understand hopkins was the better man that night and is a future ATG. As for him rebounding yes it could be done look at how paul williams and juan diaz rebounded from their defeats earlier this year, hell even old forrest rebounded against a youngin, and pavlik is only 26. Hopefully the same happens withcotto and taylor also because those three are good for the sport, I would sure hate to see those three end up like a jeff lacy. We should not call fighters done untill atleast a few fights after the loss

    Good post.

    We have a small problem with the exposed theory. Hopkins fights Taylor and is exposed, Taylor fights Pavlik and is exposed, Pavlik fights Hopkins and is....oh ****, how can that be?

    its been less than 24 hours
    IMO pavlik's career or lack of after this depends on how willing he is to learn the RIGHT lessons from this loss once the immediate humiliation and sting wear off and how willing his management is to put him on the right path to redemtion

    Hopkins - Taylor x 2 = MW
    Taylor - Pavlik x 1 = MW
    Taylor - Pavlik x 1 = 164 catch
    Pavlik - Hopkins x 1 = 170 catch

    "Must've been the extra weight?" - could be
