I have said what I feel on the fight in many other threads. I got zero responses from Pavlik fans in those threads addressing the points I brought up on how these two are going to clash, they instead just hit a brick wall and ignored. Capfunds I rarely bother with, he's insane and off base 99% of the time.
What a lame comeback. What's wrong? Need Brooklyn and Sweet Pea to make a retort for you to claim as your own? :yep
Hopkins won't beat any top fighters throwing 20 punches a round. Unless he can get a KO, which is possible. But I'll take Pav in this.
yes, unless hopkins land a right that put pavlik on his ass and finish him which there isn't many chances of happening but still can happen, pavlik either wins by decision or KO.
I just can't visualize a Hopkins win. What's he going to do? With Calzaghe, he worked off his back foot for most of the night, knowing that trading with a guy that had a far superior workrate and a great chin would blow his suspect stamina. Basically, Hopkins ran from a guy that ordinarily couldn't knock him over if he was standing on one leg. How is that Hopkins going to win? If he runs, he might survive. If he stays in the pocket, he'll end up on his knees. Old fighters lose their "chin" because they lose their stamina. They get hit and they can't hold themselves up anymore.
People act as if bernard is superman and cant lose. Everyone can lose and being 44 years of age doesnt help.
