Kelly Pavlik Logs In Worst Perfomance of His Career

At least it isn't that shitty ass "props" thread. I'll give it that.

 

Even though I'm a Martinez and Taylor fan, I agree with you.

 

Well I'm no expert, but I don't think being a doctor automatically means that you're a good cutman.

 

and i agree with u i did not think he did that great of a job

 

I thought it was me who felt Booradley was full of sh*t with his post but as I see a few people feel the same way!!

Someone mention that it seems as if Boo was trying to say it was Pavlik that lost a fight he should have won or Martinez won a fight he should have lost; this is exactly what I took from Boo's post!!!!

What Boo has to realize is styles do make fights and Martinez was the worst possible match up for a fighter like Pavlik!

I said in many post prior to Saturday night that Pavlik is a straight forward fighter who needed a guy to stay in front of him to be effective! The only shot Pavlik had at beating Martinez was catching him with a "lucky" punch!!!

Not to bring up Paul Williams but I said in prior post that Martinez would cause Williams more trouble than Pavlik can and after seeing the fight I feel my analysis is spot on!!

The thing I notice most about Pavlik fans post are them talking about a "prime" Pavlik or the Pavlik that fought JT!? Pavlik not training or being weight drained, Pavlik not focused or helping people out(cut man)!! CUT IT OUT!!!!! Be a fan of boxing not a fan of a man!!! Pavlik deserves credit for stepping in the ring on fight night but he also deserves his fans to be objective and honest!!!!!!

 

Welcome back, Boo. But I think you're being unfair to Pavlik now, bud.

 

fact is your man isnt that great. hopkins already proved this. its not a huge shock that martinez ended up beating him. he will probably move up considering how big he is as a mw.

 

Boo,

As someone who was pulling for Pavlik Saturday night, in no small part because of the unjustified hate from posters like Mr. Huu, the three point Martinez win is a bit misleading.

How so? Well, in my opinion, Sergio's 10-9 rounds seemed a hell of a lot more statement worthy than Pavlik's. In other words, Sergio was more dominant in the rounds he won than Pavlik was in the rounds he won. Discount the fortuitous knockdown Pavlik registered, which had as much to do with Sergio's positioning and off balance posture at the time than Pavlik's punch, and the the ledger becomes even more one-sided.

I like Kelly, but Sergio won the bout in convincing fashion. Where we agree is in your assessment of Pavlik appearing somewhat different than the Pavlik of yesteryear. He just doesn't seem to have that same snap on his punches or gusto for ring combat.

 

This fight was supposed to hype a match between Kelly and Lucian. I wondered if he put the weight on in anticipation of 'going up' for that fight. All academic now.

 

****.
I wrote a big honkin' reply that was going to revolutionize the world, make Christmas come early, free puppies jump out of your USB ports, and probably be five pages long but the connection logged out in the middle of sending it.
****, ****, ****itty ****.

If my feedback/viewpoint makes a difference for you, I could pm what I'll remember of it in somewhat manageable chunks.

 

Boo don't take it like "I told you so"!!!!

I give you and even your niece Hermit credit for having boxing knowledge!!!!

Never said Pavlik was shitty!!! One dimensional Robot, you got me there!

 

No Hermit he didn't!!!:-(
