    Yes i know but Winky hasnt been in the spolight for a while and he was hungry for the pavlik fight as while ago, He should have taken the fight for $800,000 and fight the number one guy at 160 beat him then move on to bigger and better payday but he turned it down just like he did the Taylor second fight...I think winky is an idiot to be honest.

    I also think this fight would be a difficult one for Pavlik with B-hop's style.

      This must be some kind of joke.....it aint funny Bernard can win this fight if he fights!!! Pavlik should win but it won't be by KO....if this fight happens it will probably be at a catch like 170 and that should favor the old man....I've NEVER seen Hopkins in a fight he couldn't win.

          Yeah... and you also said Rahman Ko's Toney. You seem to be way off the mark in almost all ur predictions.

                Hm...interesting. I'd pick Hopkins because I don't think Pavlik is experienced enough, honestly Hopkins is gunna have trouble with Kelly's workrate, though not as much as Calzaghe's, but Kelly's Power will be the big factor.

                However, I don't see Hopkins losing this fight, call me crazy.

                    There is absolutely zero chance of Pavlik KOing Hopkins but he should get a decision win based on activity, but it won't be straightforward and is a dangerous choice.
                    I guess if Calzaghe couldnt do it than nobody can

                      Hopkins is too smart for Kelly, he will skool him i think.
                      I Hope to **** tho as a Pavlik fan and for the good of the sport KP scores a brutal KO win
