    Kelly Pavlik, if he gets the right trainer, can turn it around. I saw his last fight the other night and saw a patient Pavlik.

    Now even though he fought a cakewalk, he showed patience. He didn't stalk his guy, he used the ring to cut the guy off, showed a strong jab, even threw triple left hooks, showed some cagey defense, and then he set the guy up for the ko. Pavlik looked strong. I don't know what weight he fought at, but I love comeback stories.

    Pavlik has to understand that you can't overwhelm everyone with power. Sometimes you have to fight like Sergio Martinez and just keep chopping the tree and eventually the tree will fall. I'm Wlad K's biggest critic, but was glad that Wlad turned it around.

    I loved Foreman's comeback, the Hopkins success story because he did it his way. I just love success stories. Hell even Pacquiao. Knocked out two times, look at what he has become today.

    Boxing is such a difficult sport to come back in. I'll give credit to anyone who becomes a success story in this brutal sport.

    Pavlik is running on empty.

    Looks like Hatton did before Manny.

    Nothing left . Dont get hurt Kelly as I have enjoyed your career.

    Pavlik just needs to Do "Him".
    Stay away from the Booze/or whatever demons he had in his life.

    Just train & fight... Plenty of time to self destruct as a retired fighter.

    No, Pavlik does not look close to how Hatton looked before the end. Not even close.

    Last fight was a tuneup, but Pavlik did look sharper, faster, and stronger than ever. Before everything he did looked laboured now he fights with much more focus and conviction. I freaked when he threw acouple right hand leads like he was a white Hopkins. :D

    Hatton lost three rounds combined against those two.

    Pavlik is finished and has been for years. Truth be told he was never all that.
