    I'm glad he can drop 12 - 15 easier than me. I dropped 15 pounds since my last 6 month doctor's visit and he was concerned. After all those visits where he told me to lose some weight. :lol: And I try and get 16 k in every night of good weather, combination waking/running. Well, what passes for running for me. Of course at 57 my metabolism is probably a tad slower than Kelly's.....

    Mike Sr. said contracts for the Mora fight were signed and returned almost two weeks ago. The cancellation is not due to a contract dispute between Pavlik and Top Rank since Pavlik is signed with the company through May 2010, Mike Sr. said.
    When asked why the Pavlik camp didn’t comment publicly on the ESPN story until now, Mike Sr. said, “Well, because Kelly still works for [Top Rank chairman] Bob Arum. It [the story] was something we had to find out about.”
    Mike Sr. said he has not talked with anyone at Top Rank since the story broke. Attempts to reach Arum and Pavlik’s co-manager, Cameron Dunkin, late Wednesday night were unsuccessful.

    To say again, the rumblings around town have been he wants the summer off and just the fact that hes talking about a possible september bout kinda pushes the issue that maybe thats really what it is.

    I wonder if Arum felt he couldn't raise the needed money to pull this off so he decided to scrap the main event and replace it with a cheaper one? That seems most plausible at this moment since Team Pavlik can't get Arum or Dunkin to return calls.
