of course, it make sense after all, Paul Williams is much greater than Bernard Hopkins who is a bum after all, anybody who's black, can reproduce his performance:happy:happy:happy:happy
Kelly's hand speed is under rated. The way he sets the right hand up off the jab is very impressive. Everybody notices the jack hammer version of the jab, but a lot of people miss the way he sometimes just flicks a quick double jab right into his opponents eyes. His glove isn't even closed. He's just disguising the right hand that is already on the way. Now he needs to start utilizing his left hook as well as he uses the jab. He's stopped guys with left hooks, so it's there. He just doesn't use it enough. Consistent left hooks would make opponents think twice about moving to their own right.
Pavlik by knockout. Pavlik is a killer at 160 lbs. He has too much power for williams. I see pavlik winning by knockout much like his first fight with jermain taylor.
Ya because Hopkins at 160-175 is the same type of boxer as the welterweight Paul Williams I know that you turn it into a race thing Paul Williams is not that slick, he gets hit a ton... and he takes flush shots... Pavlik will Knock him out
He has comparable speed to Taylor. He is 2" taller.:good He has a much heavier workrate.:good He is Southpaw.:good No one knows really if he brings his power up, or if he actually improves his power at 160. (Andy Kolle may not be the best indication, but the guy seemed to be adequately durable) No one knows if his chin will be as good at that weight. All the flush punches people complain about him taking have never sent him to the canvas. Ever. This content is protected . :-( (**** what the Margo fans say about him being "dazed" in the 11th. Nonsense.) You can't assume he can't take a Pavlik punch. Not to mention, Taylor should have put him to ****ing sleep early on if he had not been so damn wild and punched himself out. instead of taking his time and picking his shots when he had him hurt. And that second fight he was fighting like Vernon Forrest did his second fight against Mayorga. By the way, besides Taylor, who has Pavlik "murdered" in the ring? So Paul would be his weakest challenge to date, huh? Interesting...:huh I ain't saying PW should be favored, but people who act like he will be swept away in 4 rounds are embellishing KP's power, speed, and overall skill just a bit.
Amazing! For the first time in my life I agree with everything you said. I'd hate to say something like this to you, but excellent post.
I take Pavlik since he is a natural MW and will take away the freakish advantages PW enjoys usually at 147 and 154. Plus, Pavlik has power that can knockout heavyweights.
