There will be war... I fully Expect Martinez to fight Pavlik like a champion ( not like Rubio/Lockett ) .... I don't think he'll run from Kelly. So I believe it'll be an amazing fight, we all know Pavlik is going to bring it. My prediction is Pavlik by TKO stoppage.. My guess would be that the first 3-4 rounds should be pretty even, or at least Pavlik won't be dominant.. I feel that in the middle to later rounds, Martinez may begin to crumble under the power of Pavlik's shots. Yet this is boxing, and anything can happen.. I can see scenarios where Martinez moves, slips and counters Pavlik... but I really doubt he would be able to do this tonight That being said... Bute - Miranda should be a great fight too... can't wait .
I'm picking Bute over Miranda. I like both Pavlik and Martinez but I think there's an upset in the making on this fight. Pavlik hasn't fought in awhile because of his injury and that could spell trouble for him. I'm looking forward to tonight's fights. Should be a damn good one.
Two ****ing awesome matchups tonight. I can't see how either can disappoint, barring a DQ, cuts, etc.
Sadly, the Pavlik/Martinez is going to be a one sided beat down. I like Martinez, and I honestly am not going to enjoy watch him take punishment from a bigger guy. I hope I'm wrong, and that Martinez can at least make it a little competitive
This is the kind of night that is great for the sport. Two potential barnburners, both on free HBO. It's a shame the casual fan doesn't tune into a night of fights like this....
I like Martinez and dont care for Pavlik but I think most of us have seen very little of Martnez to really understand how he fights. Look at the Margarito fight and several other earlier fights and im sure you will reconsider your pick. Im still going with Martinez only cause Pavlik is a ***** full of excuses
