Pavlik/Hopkins ?

[Underboss]

Pavlik would easily KO Hopkins or Wright, the only fighter that stands a chance against Pavlik is Joe Calzaghe.

easily KO both hopkins and wright?

if jermain taylor didn't KO both hopkins and WINKY then how on earth could pavlik "easily" KO hopkins and winky?

If you seen the promo video of winky wright v.s hopkins, you'll see a scene where winky wright is blocking mosley's shot, and gets hit in his chin nd doesnt go down.

I think it would be good for pavliks resume if he fought hopkins and beat him. Same thing goes for winky wright. Given how well he boxed with taylor i actually give pavlik a chance is these fights if they were to happen. He proved that he has a pretty good jab which is always a good thing. Also given their age i dont think they will have the power to knock out pavlik, especially not winky. So they would have to rely on their experience and boxing skill. that will be problem for pavlik but with his strength and constant pressure he should be able to hold his own. I see a fight with winky more possible because i doubt hopkins will go back down to middleweight.

I agree. Winky has a great chin and his defense is hard to get through so i think pavlik vs winky would go all 12 rounds

Out pointing someone doesn't mean your puttin on a slick show, it just means you're landed your punches with ease without any significant response. Wich Hopkins was doing, he was careful, tentitive (since Tito came into the fight lookin like a legitmate 160.), and he stayed moving. All cause he was aware of Tito's power, he wasn't gonna take rediculous chances.

I don't think he "figured" anything out, he just played it safe. It's when he ate a Tito left hook, felt it, soaked it in, them smiled at Tito...that's when he "figured out" that Tito couldnt hurt him. And after that, he started layin into his right hand's and hooks.





I can't agree with those words on Allen, I mean Hopkins landed a right hand that did everything but break Allen's jaw. It was a nasty Knock down, and to Allens credit, even possibley due to the fact it was his second bout with Bernard, he did enough to stay away and go onto 12.

Hopkin's did wrestle and try to pry open Winky's defense for the entire first half of the bout, plus he is 40 years old now. Granted, he's not fightin like he's 23 lol, but he isn't fightin like he's 40 years old either. I mean he moved up to get at Tarver and was able to hang. Now a bout with Pavlik, I think Bernard can move from that right hand of Kelly's, wich isnt blazing fast, and I think Bernard's right is sharp enough to get to Kelly's chin. Taylor occasionally got that right in on Hopkins, and thats probably the fastest right in the Middleweight division. I don't think Pavlik's would do any better.

Anyways though, Hopkins is a talker...and I haven't heard him callin out Pavlik or commenting on any of this, so who know's. Maybe he doesn't even want the fight.

I think we will ahve to agree to disagree here.

hopkins lost to taylor twice, no i don't want to see him fight PAVLIK, he can't win
