Do you guys really think Anthony couldn't have taken Kelly Down last night?

no chance, B-Hop is a great all time fighter, Mundine is a joke compared to him.

 

at 170, and last night especially, B-Hop would have beaten Mundine.

 

no

 

Mundine could outbox Pavlik, but from the last few fights I've seen of his, he presents himself to be hit, and this would be terrible for him against Pavlik. He could very well get hurt, then get on his bike for the rest of the fight.

 

its all his own fault to, if he had sought out fighting decent guys and built up a decent resume then the experience he gained may have let him beat these guys

but the long list of fijian council workers and argie tomato cans wont give you the skills to get even close to b-hop

 

Hell no.
Where does this stuff come from?

It was Hopkins who made Pavlik look bad. Mundine ain't no Hopkins.

 

maybe the extra weight slowed pav down, but to think Mundine could replicate what b hop did is crazy.

boxing trash talk, are u goin to bring everything back to mundine?

i mean come on, look who he is fightin again, dont u get pissed he is wasting his prime.

 

Was more than that mate. Mundine would look good at times with his speed and angles but unlike Hopkins he gives guys like Pavlik a chance with his space. Watch the Kessler fight, Mundine is elusive but doesn't nullify his opponent like Hopkins does. Hopkins attacks and clinches and at 170 is strong enough to lock you in. Mundine would prefer to sneek in & out and use his speed and movement, giving guys like Pavlik and kessler way more opportunities to attack than does the the cagey Hopkins. The chances of Mundine waring out Pavlik like Nard did are a lot less and would make the difference in the result imo.

 

I wish people would stop throwing mundines up there with the elite. He simply is not on the same level. Pavlik would destroy mandy.

 

Yeah to be honest I think Mundine would have beaten yesterday's Pavlik. When I watched the fight and saw Bhops defense and movement I sometimes saw glimpses of similarity to Mundines defense. Of course Mundine would not execute it with such perfection so the results would have probably been a closer UD but Ive never rated Pavlik that highly and yesterday only backed up my orginal thoughts of the guy.

 

Anyway take the 2 Taylor fights out of his resume (BTW Taylor could have won both at some stages in the fights) and Pavlik hasn't really beaten anyone of serious note, ok he's only 26 but soon as he stepped up he got exposed. Kessler wld murder Pavlik after that performance last night.
