    I was just watching the Hopkins-Pavlik post fight interviews. Does Larry Merchant have beef with Hopkins? He doesn't seem to like talking to him and doesn't even look at him when he congratulates him in the end.

    actually they do have friction in their past... but i liked that interview between the two.

    To me that was a magical night all the way around.
