I know somewhere in the archives of this board there is a statement from you saying Pavlik would clock JC as he came in with head down. Jones came close, but was slow on the trigger and hit him with a fore arm instead of a fist. If Jones was a little faster, that fight would have been over at that point.
I think you have the right idea, and the right winner, but I've been saying KP by KO in 8 for 2 years. Here's the distinction for me: When AA is under pressure he goes to the ropes or a corner. Every fight I've seen he did that. What happens to people who go to the ropes against Pavlik?
Yep -- predictable. As a pro Kelly has ALWAYS been predicatable. However, JT knew exactly what Kelly was going to do, but could not stop him from doing it. KP has had so much success by just doing what he does that he's never needed anything else. Hopefully the loss to BHop will get him to thinking about his amature career, and he'll get some of the old tools out and knock the rust off of them.
I love the thought of B-Hop training him. I think Kelly could benefit considerably by accepting the instruction.
AA is just too slow, throws looping punches and too inactive.. He will not beat Pavlik unless he can somehow land a huge punch on Pavlik. I give AA a punchers chance
AA by KO. For the first four rounds AA follows KP around the ring with a high guard taking nothing more than a few stiff jabs, rounds five onwards AA starts to time KP's 1-2 with jabs and looping right hands hurting him with regularity putting him down before going in for the kill until the ref stops the fight. This is only if KP stays with his current trainer, if B-Hop was able to teach KP how to move his head, better footwork and show him some angles the result could be completely different.
Two lucky wins? Are you including the decisive KTFO. Man if your going to hate try using logic and don't spat pure stupidity. Is Pavlik the next Hagler? No, but damn the guy isnt a bum by any means and he is one of the most exciting young guys this sport has so enjoy him while he is here.
Novel assessment, but I believe it starts off wrong, so ....... AA follows KP around the ring? That would certainly be a reversal of what we have seen him do under pressure, which is back up to the ropes/corner. Can you point me to an example of a pressure fighter, some one like Kelly, where he has come forward with his guard? And you really think Kelly will be backing up against a guy not punching? Shirley, you jest.
Don't even respond to that troll. He is close to being on my ignore list. I have never seen him even pretend to post analysis.
If AA could not walk Miranda down, he will not walk down KP ... NO one has walked KP in his career ... Even BHOP at 170 was on his back foot the whole time
