Pavlik is barely even one-dimensional

Is position a dimension? :think

 

Styles make fights. A lot of fighters can look one-dimensional against the wrong opponent.

 

Tremendous help, and here I thought I was done for the semester. Thanks man. :thumbsup

 

I wouldn't use that in a term paper.....:bart

 

he still has a very good shot at williams,sturm, but he'll be outclassed and ko'd against any top fighter at 168 hes too limited and the fact that he wont be able to bully opponents will be exposed

 

It might be the perfect time to get Zelenoff's name out there in academia.

 

And I'd like to see how many rounds this clown lasts with Kelly in the ring.:deal

 

The Zelenoff Principle of no allowable points of impact above the ribcage must be snuck into a textbook somewhere! I'm not sure which is scarier - that math jokes about boxing actually fly in this forum (I get edited to death in other forums. Everytime I think I'm out, ESB pulls me back in.) or that I actually made a math joke about Zelenoff.

 

Paul Williams would most likely lose to Pavlik simply coz Pavlik is the naturally stronger guy and I suspect would be able to handle Williams' power.

Williams looks pretty good as a WW or JMW, but at MW he doesn't look so formidable.

As for Pavlik, I wonder if he will try campaigning at 168 again? That is where all the great matchups are, but he will also probably lose to just about everyone in the Super 6 except for Taylor.

 

Not really. Something has to have extension in some direction to be measured with respect to some dimension.

 

Fair enough, name me one fighter at 160lbs with the skillset that Hopkins has.

 

Pavlik is 1 dimensional & loses to any elite fighter his size

 

That may be true. The problem is, of course, that the number of remotely technically competent fighters that actually are 6' 2", get in the ring at 175 lbs and can drop 90 atomic bombs a round is zero now, zero historically and probably won't be increasing for a damn long time.
