    What is the overall size of this work? My wife is an artist so I can appreciate the work 'silver' trunks. Not an easy effect to reproduce. Check this out: [url]http://www.butlerart.com/[/url]
    The director is a sports fanatic. I think they have one room dedicated to 'sports' art. They have several boxing paintings by George Bellows. Their web site sucks and the pictures they have up aren't very good though. But, they recently did a photo display of photographs of Kelly from the local news paper photographers. So, do a painting of Kelly and you could be in like the proverbial porch climer. :)

    #1.. Pavlik never fought Hopkins #2 Pavlik has all the advantages of this fight. Maybe speed but its slight. Pavliks speed was close to JT. They both got incrediable work rates... But i like the guy with #1 punch and thats pavlik's stiff jab. And joe's defence looked like **** getting caught by old ass b-hop alot. I assure kelly throws much harder more accurate and way faster. I think kelly has an easier time with joe then he did with JT. The more i watch pavlik the more i see Tommy Hearns. A tall fighter for the divsion great jab and power and kelly even has a little better of a chin.

    Pavlik is tough, but not as technically sound as Borenard.

    Pavlik said he will fight at 160lbs. until he can no longer make the weight. I don't want to see Calzaghe and Pavlik fight. I want to see Pavlik fight the top ten middleweights until he cleans out the division.

    There is a lot of truth to the old saying "styles make fights," but I really get sick of reading posts where people flatly state that Pavlik's style is perfect for Joe. They accuse Pavlik of "plodding forward," which is TOTAL bull****. He inches forward carefully behind one of the best jabs in the business today, a text book perfect 1-2, and a viscously accurate lead right.

    These same folks are also always harping about Pavlik "attacking in straight lines." Yes he does that, BUT everytime his opponent moves laterally Pavlik uses his GROSSLY UNDER-RATED footwork to keep the poor ******* right in front of him.

    And then there is this myth that Pavlik has no defense. You don't fight Zuniga, McKart, Miranda, and Taylor twice, and remain undefeated with no defense! These four fighters have 105 knockouts, and about 6 world titles between them. Pavlik does not slip a lot of punches, but he does parry them quite well. He also makes very subtle head movements that are just enough to take the sting off a punch. He'll move his head just an inch or so. This tecnique allows him to keep moving forward firing punches, and not break his rythym.

    It is also a myth that Pavlik can't fight on the inside. The goofballs who make this claim probably haven't seen anything other than the miranda and Taylor fights. Go tell McKart and Zuniga that Pav can't fight on the inside.

    I could go on and on, but I'll quit now. Pavlik KO10 Calzaghe. Everytime Joe squares up and starts winging slaps, he'll eat a right hand from hell. When Joe comes rushing in with his head down, Pav will hurt him bad with uppercuts. When joe goes to the body and leaves the whole right side of his head and face wide open, he'll catch 2 jabs and a left hook. Yes, it's true; styles make fights, and because of his style, Slappy joe was born to get Pavlikated!

    Calzaghe is naturally bigger than Pavlik, been fighting at 168 for many years,did will at 175. Joe is trying to get Roid Jones into the ring.

    You mean guys like Duddy whose best wins are over opponents who couldn't make 4 rounds with Pavlik? Or, perhaps you're referring to guys like the great Giovanni Lorenzo whose last 6 opponents had a collective 55 losses! and let's not forget TMTCTLS Hisssssssss! **** 160. At 168 there's Calzaghe, Kessler, Bute, Andrade, a possible rematch with Miranda and, or, Zuniga, and maybe even Pavlik/Taylor III.

    Since this could be Joe's last fight with the retirement talk and such I've got no problem with the fight being in Joe's backyard. Pavlik does well when he's the underdog and the fight should be good.

    Yep, maximum Pavlikation will be applied to slappy.

    It will be a relentless and brutal display. :bbb
