    Ponchito Bojado ... Kelly Pavlik has a championship and has defended it 3 times going on 4 and all have ended by T/KO. No middleweight will be able to take Pavlik deep and drown him ... he may lose again but he's proven himself in my opinion.

    Some of the fighters mentioned have had very good boxing careers, if you think getting beat equates to being exposed you are stupid.

    Pavlic, Hatton, Taylor...exposed? **** off!

    They used him to steal B-Hop's belt!

    JT wasn't that bad though.

    Plus Taylor was an established undisputed champ with several defenses and drew a legend in Wright. Pavlik is an established champ losing to a legend 2 weights above. Hatton was a champ undisputed with defenses and has only lost 2 times to the number 1 in brave efforts.

    Sadly, its not as simple as that.

    Your telling me that Prime Bhop who is your describing wouldnt have disposed of Enrique Ornelas????

    To answer your naive post, no there wouldnt be any shame in Kelly losing to an ATG ruler of his division for ten years and just beat Trinidad and De La Hoya. But now losing 15 years later. Theres great shame in that. Great shame

    Won 14 national amatuer titles. Hes american by the way so These aint not micky mouse titles he was winning. Hes 20 yrs old and is currently 7-0. But i just checked his boxrec and hes been really inactive. He only fought twice last year, not once this year and does have a fight coming up.

    How people say kelly Pavlik never got exposed is ****ing rediculous.

    He cant box for **** and anyone who says any different has never bothererd learning the sport they seem to know everything about.

    He walks in straight lines. Hes got no head movement. Hes doesnt use any angles. Hes got slow feet and hands. But he can punch. And thats why he beat Taylor. Taylor was winning the first fight till he got sparked. But then again - who doesnt spark Taylor late on?

    Thanks for the info how bout Deontay Wilder guy got bronze but has fought complete crap so far. I know his experience is small but I mean you cant go from best comp in the world at the Olympics and the nfight guys who can barely qualify as pros he needs to fight tougher fights or he may get a real surprise

    HBO hyped up Pavlik because he's American and he's white. And that's the truth.


    ...All these old white american men hate these young american black fighters. Larry Merchant being a prime example.

    Are we talking about fighters that made it to the championship level or guys like Jaidon Codrington and Curtis Stevens
