    :deal

    In Youngstown.

    Espino is motivated and hungry.

    B-Hop took Pavlik's fighting heart.

    espino hasnt fought in a very long time either.

    so until espino is coming off a very close/debatable decision to joe calzaghe at lhw, lets not get carried away

    I think Pavlik is done, this is Espino's shot at the big time, I think he'll take it.

    What possible evidence could you concoct to suggest that Pavlik won't be as good as ever?

    And what possible idiocy could lead you to believe that even a washed-up, under-prepared, one-handed, ill-motivated version of Pavlik wouldn't pick this guy apart?

    The best Espino could come out with was, "Pavlik knows I'm easier than Williams, and that's why he picked me." Confidence is hardly Espino's middle name.

    Did he really just say that or is it taken out of context? Either he's trying some trick or bluff or he's a real honest guy saying flat out he's the lesser fighter and the easier fight.

    Pavlik will knock this guy out in about 7 rounds.

    Espino is no better than Lockett and is worse than Rubio. Could well be his worst opponent since Leonard Pierre. Don't bet the house on Espino.

    I see his chances in Pavlik's injury.

    Ya -- I'll look for a big upset on 12/19. No doubt! There will be hundreds of posters on ESB, and dozens of boxing "experts" who will be very upset to find out they were full of ****, and the beast is back.
