Tarver, Wright and De La Hoya did better than Pavlik

I still can't believe one judge gave two rounds to Pavlik. I guess it was nice of Hopkins to let Kelly's Mam be one of the judges.

I think a large part of it was that kelly just wasn't prepared for that kind of Hopkins performance. There was nothing to indicate that Hopkins was still capable of pulling off something like that. I actually think this fight might help Pavlik in the long term. I think he will return to 160 and still rule it. I would still pick him over AA.

I dont see how Trinidad,De La Hoya, or Tarver did better than Pavlik. First off Trinidad and De La Hoya got knocked out. Thier is no getting around that. Tarver didnt do any better, in fact might have done worse, because he was knocked down. He didnt do any better at winning rounds. judge: John Coyle 118-109 | judge: Clark Sammartino 118-109 | judge: Al Bennett 118-109. Pavlik wasnt knocked down and had a bullshit point taken from him. judge: Barbara Perez 117-109 | judge: Alan Rubenstein 119-106 | judge: Steve Weisfeld 118-108 Stupid thread.

Trinidad actually did do better than Pavlik vs a younger and more prime Hopkins

styles make fights.

As Hopkins said, this was his best performance and I agree with him, it was a great performance.

Pavlik got way too much for beating an exhausted Taylor. I thought Taylor won the rematch

I think if you put a baseball bat in Pavliks hands he still would have missed Hopkins for 12 rounds.

and let's not forget 2008 Kelly Pavlik is prime Kelly Pavlik. He's not going to get any better than he is now 2006 Tarver was not the best Tarver at all Tarver has also always fought at 175 pounds.

he has a ton of shit to learn, but I don't think he'll ever change. I think he's a come forward slugger just like Margarito and he's not going to beat a good boxer with a good chin

and let's not forget 2008 Kelly Pavlik is prime Kelly Pavlik. He's not going to get any better than he is now 2006 Tarver was not the best Tarver at all i think pavlik is going to get alot better. he still has alot to learn.

i think even trinidad did better than pavlik.. duego, prepare to get hated on

and let's not forget 2008 Kelly Pavlik is prime Kelly Pavlik. He's not going to get any better than he is now 2006 Tarver was not the best Tarver at all

Tarver at least had one or two moments where he landed punches and I think all three judges agreed on what round he won. Pavlik never won a single round on any reasonable card or came close to it.

If Tarver did better it was by a round. I thought he got worked, and knocked down to boot.
