The fact he said "we've got a whole lot more plans for Bernard Hopkins than they realize" was even more stupid imo. What "other plans" did you have you liar?
Plan #2: Get rolled in front of thousands of Youngstown fans who traveled to Atlantic City by a guy 17 years older than your fighter. Make it so noncompetitive that your fans are booing in the final rounds.
If you were truly a fan of Pavlik, you would want to see him reach his top potential. Loew can not take him there.. He is not an elite top tier trainer.. Kelly got to where he is at because of his talent, but to stay on top any professional athlete need a top level coach..
Yeah true, imagine what Hopkins would do to Miranda. When Miranda got his ass handed to him by Pavlik, boy were you embarassed.
Kelly didnt even put up a fight. He was confused and looked stupid. He lost everything in 12 rounds. Poor soul. Back to Youngstown a ****ing loser! :hi:
This goes to the thread starter, pavlik fan, in case you didn't see my post. I'm not talking about the ring talk or the corner work of Loew during the fight AT ALL. But: "We’re not concerned about Bernard Hopkins running around the ring and moving and showing how slick he is. We’re prepared for that too. We’re not dumb enough to just walk straight at him and throw one-twos down the middle. We know what a great fighter he is. So, we’ve got a whole lot more plans for Bernard Hopkins than they realize. So, if they’re thinking that we’re one dimensional, that’s great for them." And: "Bernard is going to discover on October 18 that his new world really is flat ... flat on his back. Kelly has had his best training camp ever and he is ready to shiver Hopkins' timbers from stem to stern. Kelly is prepared to fight Hopkins from the inside and the outside and if he gets the chance to put Hopkins away, he's going for it, unlike Joe Calzaghe. Kelly has more guts and confidence in himself than Calzaghe and he's going to ice Hopkins if the opportunity presents itself, and I think it will. Calzaghe is not a dumb guy. He's fighting Roy Jones instead of Kelly for a reason...self preservation." Tell me Loew didn't say those things and I will apologize for calling him an *******.
i still dont know why pavlik took this fight. i respect that he wants to fight the best but hopkins was all wrong for him.
Better? Cmon man, they arent even in the same sport. Kelly will NEVER be the same after that ass whipping. He was exposed, rapped, chewed up and spit out. And I am trying to be nice. :yep
