as the Forum members break out arguing over Hopkins punishing defeat to Calzaghe again, just as I said, Pavlik is a bum... predictions and destiny are great aren't they, now Pavlik is where he belongs.
You wonder why people can't stand certain boxing fans .. Fades in to obscurity ? Outside Auther Abraham who really poses a threat to him in the middle weight division ? Wasn't Hopkins being set up for a KO just about 48 hrs ago ?? Wasn't he shot after the Calzaghe fight ? Come on now ..Stop the hate he lost to a legend ..
I would like to see Pavlik fight the winner of Sturm vs. Sylvester...maybe if it's Sturm, he could out-slick Pavlik...
One loss against Bernard Hopkins and suddenly Pavlik is a bum? :-( Your just as bad as the Calzaghe haters for saying crap like that mate.
Hopkins' "punishing" defeat to Calzaghe? Calzaghe edged it and good for him, but there was very little damage done to either fighter, and Calzaghe got more of it.
I still think Pavlik will have a succesful career after this fight, one loss shouldn't ruin him. But it's sad that Howard Eastman and Robert Allen did better against B-Hop than he did.
this seems to me a rash and stupid statement pavlick lost to a much more expereinced man who is by all means an all time great he is 26 and has beat good guys before and IMO he will come back and be at the eliete level for a few to many years
