Disgrace? He was the undisputed middlweight champion and has been a top 10 fighter since 2005. Maybe not the greatest career ever, but hardly a disgrace. :huh
I seriously don't get the hate for Pavlik. There's a lot of immaturity on this thread. Some of it is from posters I would not expect it from. Good luck Kelly. Get yourself together and live a happy, fruitful and productive life. The same sentiments go to any other fighter that retires as long as he is not a scumbag.
It's always good to see a fighter knowing when it's time to hang them up. Best of luck to Pavlik, wish him the best in his life.
