Kelly Pavlik is the first really good American white boxer since Willie Pep retired.
There have been a few decent ones like Quarry and Cooney (although none in my lifetime) but Kelly's the first bona fide top white boxer since Pep. There have been some world class white boxers in other countries such as Calzaghe, but none since Pep from the US.
He's the only currently active American white fighter I like, because he's the only one that's really good. Pavlik is the real deal.
