    Crowd Pleasing Style.
    Not Scared To Fight Anyone.
    Say's All The Right Things.

    BUT!

    stylistically you dont last long on top by proving nobody can put a crack in your iron chin.... eventually someone will put a dent in that baby

    I said the same thing in a previous post of mine. He has a crazy workrate and is exciting to watch, but gets hit way too much.

    Very similar to many other warriors out there who give us amazing fights,
    but shorten there careers in the process.

    His chin is far from iron. He has major flaws and it is only a matter of time before his career quickly declines. The first skilled big guy he faces will set the wheels of retirement in motion.

    Sad part is that he has great D but just gets caught up in offense too much.

    The dude doesn't fight to his strengths it's ****ing ******ed. It's like having a ferrari but wanting to drive it off road.

    I have a 90 inch reach but can make 147 maybe i should stay on my toes and use the jab..Nah **** it, i'll be a ****ing pressure fighter. If he had serious power it would make slightly more sense, but he has average power, below average power at 160 and up.

    He'll never be great.

    His chin is one of the best. Very few fighters at that weight would have taken that punch and gotten p at the end of the 1st Round, and then continued to get pummeled for three more straight rounds, and then go on to continue pressing the action. Only a blind ****in hater would try to detract from the effort he gave last Saturday.

    Is he technically the best? No. But how many big skilled guys out there are in his weight class that are capable of "Setting the wheels of retirement in motion"?

    Nicely put.

    Yeah, he fights the wrong style given his attributes. He should be fighting behind his jab and not committing. He could probably beat most people by just staying behind his jab alone.

    reminds me of when riddick bowe would put his head in your chest and just swing, when he had a great powerful jab and great movement

    If Pavlik hits him square on the chin with an overhand right, fight's over. Forget about his chin, look at those teeny legs.
