    Any fighter would postpone a fight when injuried, criticising them for doing so is low for any fan of this sport. This is a dangerous sport and these guys could get killed in there. Williams' injury wasn't too serious so they moved on with it, that's what they publicly stated. Not all rib injuries are the same and physique differs from one fighter to another.

    Ali postponed a fight because of an injury, Foreman, Tyson and many other true greats. There is nothing to criticise here. Fighting through it suffering an injury in the ring is what counts not during preparation. Preparation = preparing yourself physically and mentally 100% for future fights, going through it with a serious injury is stupid.

    Two quick points.

    #1, this has been a sh*t year for boxing compared to what it could have been. I'm not saying it's been a sh*t year overall, but it has delivered way under expectations.

    #2, there is no way both the Ward-Kessler and Williams-Pavlik fights occur on the same night. Goossen promotes both Ward and Williams. Think they are going to let two of their best fighters fight on the same night at opposite ends of the country, on different networks. No way. So, I guess what I'm saying is, get ready for another postponement.

    They installed alcohol hand rub dispensers in Kelly's house to try to help, but he just kept drinking the stuff....

    I mean damn so i guess he can say Williams is scared to fight Pavlik and that makes it ok with him? But when i say anything atleast 1 bad thing about Pavlik, he said that's one of the reason why i'm on his ignored list? lol. Hermit must be "pavlik is champ" big brother.
