I continue to be amazed by Bernard's footwork in his fight with Kelly. There was a LOT more to it than just moving away from Pav's right hand. There were many times when Kelly stepped to his own left and tried to land one of those long left hooks he throws. Which is exactly what he should have done. The vast majority of fighters would have ran right into that ****. That would have made them think twice about moving to Kelly's left. Not BHop; he just switched up, and slid away the other direction. If Rubio tries to emulate Hopkins, he'll trip over his own damn feet.
I expect Pavlik to beat Rubio, but you never know for sure. I will not pay for PPV though, too many PPV's and I am getting tired of it.
It is just that Rubio will notice the rhythmic repetition of Pavliks punishing punches pummeling his cracking cranium will have an hypnotic harmony of deadly drumming as he drifts off to dreamland.
your assuming rubio has the intelligence to make such an adjustment.. the shrimp will get sparked Lockett style.. Hes a come forward chin forward brawler, just ask Jantuah.. I douby that Rubio will have an overnite renaissance and come in a nd pull a Bhop onPavlik, lol... Its gonna be fun watching Pav blast out a tailor made can like Rubio:happy:happy
