I can't believe I have to resort to my cut and paste routine AGAIN, but I get tired of typing the same self evident truths over and over, so here we go!

There is a lot of truth to the old saying "styles make fights," but I really get sick of reading posts where people flatly state that Pavlik's style is perfect for Joe. They accuse Pavlik of "plodding forward," which is TOTAL bull****. He inches forward carefully behind one of the best jabs in the business today, a text book perfect 1-2, and a viscously accurate lead right.

These same folks are also always harping about Pavlik "attacking in straight lines." Yes he does that, BUT everytime his opponent moves laterally Pavlik uses his GROSSLY UNDER-RATED footwork to keep the poor ******* right in front of him.

And then there is this myth that Pavlik has no defense. You don't fight Zuniga, McKart, Miranda, and Taylor twice, and remain undefeated with no defense! These four fighters have 105 knockouts, and about 6 world titles between them. Pavlik does not slip a lot of punches, but he does parry them quite well. He also makes very subtle head movements that are just enough to take the sting off a punch. He'll move his head just an inch or so. This tecnique allows him to keep moving forward firing punches, and not break his rythym.

It is also a myth that Pavlik can't fight on the inside. The goofballs who make this claim probably haven't seen anything other than the miranda and Taylor fights. Go tell McKart and Zuniga that Pav can't fight on the inside.

I could go on and on, but I'll quit now. Pavlik KO10 Calzaghe. Everytime Joe squares up and starts winging slaps, he'll eat a right hand from hell. When Joe comes rushing in with his head down, Pav will hurt him bad with uppercuts. When joe goes to the body and leaves the whole right side of his head and face wide open, he'll catch 2 jabs and a left hook. Yes, it's true; styles make fights, and because of his style, Slappy joe was born to get Pavlikated!

You can write as much bull**** as you want but it will not change the outcome of the fight(if it happens) and that will be Pavlik getting badly beaten.

Well, news flash. This fight WILL happen. You may disagree with Boo's analysis, but please give us your own. Not your mandate on how the fight must end. You an abc official? Seriously, agree or disagree with Boo, he have an analyis, refute it if you can/must. You think it is bull ****? Your reply is well beneath it.

Your logic is skewed, he's avoiding an average fighter to fight a great one. He's not ducking anyone.

Why are you waving?

kracka81 · Jun 7, 2008

well here it is joe is a counter puncher but the thing is he cant punch hard like a miranda or taylor he is quick and can box but so can pav i dont think he will be able to counter punch a bomb and if pav gets him in a corner its over the hardest 10 mill joe will ever eat if i was him i take the fight and retire i just dont think he is gonna put his reputation and winless streak in jepordy so go pav
