Pavlik to retire

Exactly how has he wasted your precious time???

Its HIS career!

One that has been rather successful in comparison to 99.9% of guys who first lace up the gloves as kids.

He can do as he pleases.

Best of luck to him.

He doesnt owe anyone anything.

 

oh the double standards on this site is too much. I was and I'm sure mos people were excited to see him in his comeback at 168 under his new trainer. He had a few tuneup fights and was ready for a big fight. Ward is injured and canceled, so instead of fighting somebody else in the meantime or waiting for Ward to recover, he just retires.
I wish he warned me a couple years ago that he wasn't serious about this ****.

 

hahahahahahaha

he wants to drink beer, and smoke weed all day with his money

hahahahahahaha

fair play

i like jermaine taylor.

his liver is going to enjoy this retirement. its going to be working overtime

 

A notible career which includes 2 wins over Jermaine Taylor and ... ?

And no, he was not undisputed middleweight champ.

 

**** him. ****ing liar he isn't worried about his health. What does he think coke and booze does? Makes you age gracefully? What a massive fall from grace.

 

He could of also fought Abraham, maybe not a big payday as Jr. or Ward but still a hefty payday if that is what he wanted.

 

Bernard took his soul. Martinez buried what was left.

Now he can stick to full time training with his buddies Jose Cuervo and Jack Daniels.

 

I would've milked it for 1 more payday. Not like ward is gonna give you brain damage lol.

 

He achieved more than anyone thought he would which is why a lot of people hate on him. He's earned a lot of hate but he gets a lot because many people always hated him and he's an easy target now. Not too many fighters achieve what he did.

Some thoughts on that article and these posts:

@ that little dig at pac

I hear strip mall I see money pit

I don't think he's lying when he says he's been rolling this around for years

Joe would have won but he did duck Pavlik. Called him out, "invited" him to fight after Taylor, ESB front page article, was a driving force behind Pavlik fighting his stablemate, Pavlik asked the fans after if that's the fight they wanted, and then joe slips out the back door and fights a faded RJJ. It still eats joes fans up and they'll **** and moan about who would have won but it did happen.

Hopefully it's a peaceful retirement and there is no comeback.

 

Stop acting like he owed you ****. Don't be an entitled ******.

Fact is your bringing Mayweather into this has no place. Their retirements were under completely different conditions as multiple people have pointed out, and like I said, no one really believed Mayweather was retiring. And he didn't actually retire.

Kelly squandered what talent he had and has killed who knows how many braincells binge-drinking like a slutty white girl in college. Shot from taking shots in the ring or shot from taking shots in his living room, Pavlik is done. Mayweather wasn't and isn't.

I'm not a Pavlik fan (I'm a Taylor fan--how could I be?), but he's leaving at the right time.

 

I don't know why he is retiring, there are fights for him at 160 and 168, winnable fights.

But better to quit too soon than too late. Best of luck to him with life.

 

Hopkins took his heart, Martinez took his soul and now Jack Daniels and his coke dealer will take his money......

 

Pavlik is a man of the people...Evan Williams or Old Crow

 

Oh so nobody beleived Floyd was leaving for good, but he still got **** for it despite him leaving because of his body breaking down and his heart not being into boxing.

Same **** with Kelly, but I hear "oh good for you Kelly. Good job Kells. We love you man. We need to have a drink together soon man. Yeah good job, you beat Jermaine Taylor twice, so you're allowed to retire" atsch

And if you truely believe he's shot, then I understand were you're coming from. But I don't think he's done. If he puts the damn drinks down and keeps training under Garcia, he'll be fine. He's not at his peak, but he's not shot

 

Big up Kelly, thanks for all the great fights. Hope he has a great retirement and keeps his nose clean
