    Prime Hopkins was a more fundementally sound Pavlik. A stalker with good power and brutal technical skills. His destruction of Glen Johnson was a thing of beauty.

    I am amazed at you guys one agrees with the same conclusion.... that automatically makes it so...it has to be the Council has spoken...Dude this is not Star Wars....dude...WW is a slick fighter, and sure he is not the fighter he was as recently as fighting Tito, but he still ahs the defence and the move to make a tough fight against anyone....can he beat Pavlik and amke him look bad absolutely, I don' care if Pavlik is 8' ...WW is not a small cat himself at nearly 6'-0", now WW would be connecting from angles that Pavlik is not use to, and his lack of defence will be compromize on this fight, Pavlik might punch himself out trying to connect on WW...WW can take a punch also....now if he was able to control a stronger Tito, I beleive he can control a Kelly pavlik....

    Of course there are those who claim his prime was when he was fighting Eastman...

    Typical trend with the American boxing media to credit fighters too late. To think Calzaghe's P4P rating might well peak, as he's declining.

    When I also agree it becomes an accepted fact. There is more to size than height, the fact Wright was a welter-weight tells you he is structually smaller. The fight with Taylor, again we saw how big of a disadvantage his size was. Without any power or strength and now lacking even speed, Wright vs Pavlik is a compete physical mismatch, especially given Pavlik's own strength. It is just as big of a physical mismatch as Wright vs Hopkins.

    All of a sudden reading your post is the best MW since Carlos Monzon...please...he beat Jermain...he got pounded preatty good by Jermain who's skills are alightly above an amateur fighter...he makes up his lack of boxing skills with great ahtletic ability...now Pavlik won the fight becuase this lack of ringmanship and understanding what to do specially when you opponent is deeply hurt.....and true Pavlik will has to be part of that equation...but the deriving force was simply Jermain inhability to clsoe the show....Kudos to Pavlik for the win, but guys the guys has major flaws that will need to be corrected when dealing with master boxers of the calyber of BHop or WW.

    well the fight that I saw of Taylor v WW was nothing to what you descriobe, and BTW....WW started as a JRMW and stayed there for the best part of his career, so sure, he is slightly smaller, but he can carry the weight well, and still be ellusive...he proved it again JT....now id you say 175 well that is another story but at 160...it is fair game...

    They would both beat Pavlik. They are not Hopkins and Wright....they haven't shown slowed workrates, decreases in speed, or any of those things. Hell, Kessler is prime. Wright and Hopkins are not.

    Orisha, give it up:patsch

    Hiding it would entail my denying it. I never have. I just don't run screaming it, since it has nothing to do with anything. I assume you do? You can never admit you're wrong. This whole subject says alot about you. When you are talking about Heritage and culture, half and half basically means you have 2 WHOLE cultures to learn and be proud of instead of one. I wouldn't expect someone as ignorant as you to get that. Or are you saying you are better cuz you're a WHOLE Puerto Rican?

    Kelly Pavlik has nothing to look with Joe C or Kessler...at this point he needs to take a couple of easy fights and solidify his stronghold on the MW division before he can move to 168 and beat any top tier 168lber

    absolutely...I am ignorant and you are a high end schoolar....:rofl ..sure you have two cultures, but you are one or the other there's always one dominat culture...most people that are African American along with some type of variation of Anglo, will choose the African American ethnicity for many reason, but the most clear and obvious is that society treat them as African American that why they gravitate and embraced the culture far more than the Anglo even thou, as you mentioned, the have 2 half cultures...same thing when you have other culture, the off speing will gravitate toward one for many soci-cultural reason...and that is a fact.....but what do I know...in fact I can tell far more about you by your comment, it seems to me that you have gravitate away from you 50% PR heritage toward your other half for reasons that are only clear to you and soci-cultural along with your enviroments that created the reason for you to put your PR heritage in the back seat....but hey what do I know ...you are the schoolar ...I am the ignorant one....:rofl

    Add this to another long list of ignorant things you have said.

    There is always one dominant culture? :lol::lol::lol: Yes, you have every interracial person in America pegged oh mighty Orisha.

    So tell me Orisha, oh psychic schoolar (what the hell is a schoolar?), what comments have I made that make you think I gravitate towards one culture over the other? Am I really black to you or something? Enlighten me:deal Pinpoint them, quote them. Expose my what makes you think these things.

    I would like to point out one of the more idiotic things you said. Comparing being half black and half white with being half black and half puerto rican is non sense.

    One grouping had a race war that is still not completely finished. Of course that involves a different dynamic. The other isn't. Hell, there are full blooded PR darker than me, so outside appearance isn't going to effect how I'm treated.
