Margarito beat Martinez up bad. Even if he always had hardener in his wraps, his K.O ratio is only about 60%. It's not like Pavliks punches are going to be any lighter.
Pavlik has too much power, one right hand from pavlik, martinez can say goodnight
Pavlik is not a freight train hitter. He is not a one punch knockout guy. He never has been. Pavlik has a very heavy punch that wears guys down. It takes something from them when he lands it, but he has to land it a few times.
My only questing about Martinez is his stamina. If he cannot keep moving for 12 rounds, Pavlik might catch him. Pavlik though will seem like a slow motion fighter against him and if Martinez gives him lots of movement, which we all expect, Pavlik will not get his jab in order. If Pavlik cannot get his jab in order, Martinez will time it easily and counter with his big right hook.
Pavlik will hold the right hand back if he cannot find his range with the jab. This should be a win for Martinez IMO and this is coming from a Pavlik fan.
martinez outboxes him for 7 rounds.. hugs a few rounds to recuperate some energy than 3 rounds martinez schools him some more.
all he has to do is clinch something JT didnt do
I don't know for sure who will win, but I hope Martinez does because I'm sick of hearing Pavlik talk shit with nothing to show for it here lately. It's close to a toss up fight I suppose.
Anyone else think Pavlik lands that right hand flush and takes Martinez out?
Nope.
PWill >>> Pavlik.
See what Martinez did to PWill?
Pavlik gets done worse.
Martinez is definitely going to get his shots in, probably at a higher rate then Pavlik, but I also think Pavlik will be able to find his right hand in this fight. Maybe not right away, but he'll find it as the fight goes on because even though Martinez provides movement he keeps his hands down and is a little more predictable then Hopkins. It's basically move one direction, get it, get out, repeat and Pavlik is probably going to be able to time at some point.
I think Pavlik is going to have to get the KO in order to win and I don't think it's out of the question, but I like Martinez by decision.
he wont get hit by the right hand pavlik is too one dimensional
oh, we will see. Everyone saying that pavlik is 1d n martinez is slcikest boxer ever, truth is that martinez got caught many, many, many times by williams, hes gunna ge caught by pavlik too, but with way harder shots
