It should also be noted that Hopkins is good against tall, rangey opponents like Tarver and Pavlik because the right hand and straight head butt lead is more likely to cause a cutt and because of his awkward stance Pavlik will have a hard time landing on him IMO.

After Hopkins, Pavlik Targets Calzaghe. Abraham Out?

I don't think Arum wants the fight. Pav's big mouth trainer cried simple logic when PAv beat lockett and then said Joe was scared lol. Pav's slob trainer or PAv have not said a thing or even mentioned Abraham's name. They know Abby AB is very dangerous. They seem willing to bypass this fight.

Hopkins is too smart to get stopped and Pavlik will not land enough to hurt Hopkins, he is not a one punch knockout fighter. What troubled Hopkins with Calzaghe besides his workrate was his speed and Pavlik hasn't got any. Pavlik could lose although i do expect him to win a close SD/UD and not looking good.
Pavlik KO>10 over hopkins.

If he brought in dollars he would be in line to get pummeled too. And for those who think Pavlik will get handled like Lacy did, you better be ready for a BIG suprise*.
Note* That does not mean that Pavlik will def win, just that he will in no way be dominated.

First Joe sends the fear of god into Pavlik by stating that he might give him that 12 round ***** slapping he's been asking for.
Now he signs to fight a dude that all his fans were calling "grandpa".
What will the Pavlik fans have to whine about now?

Originally posted by Chase8400 View PostSo, let me get this straight. B-hop wont get hit because Pavlik is slow? So slow that he beat and DID hit a fighter who beat B-hop (2) times, 1 by KO? Looks like you are fooled by a 43 year old B-hop. That's good. That's what he has intended to do. Fool you and the public. Seems as though he has succeeded, somewhat. I am not fooled, however. Pavlik is not slow at ALL. Ask his last 3 opponents if he is slow and see what they say. Hopkins has no business in the ring with a killer like Pavlik @ 43/44. If you think he will win throwing 25 punches a round, I know that you don't know boxing and just like the boxer. If he had KO power, I may consider a KO win for Hopkins, but he does not.
Pavlik KO>10 over hopkins.

Floyd said this, and got ridiculed AND called a coward by the fanatical anti Floyd brigade.

Originally posted by boofdatruth View PostAbraham makes no dollar sense yet...lol. You will hear a bunch of opinionated excuses from Pav's fans. They will say Abraham has a mandatory even though Art said his name. Now we get winky over priced himself, paul williams, b-hop at a catch weight, joe back at 168, no word on kessler calling PAv out. Pav is a fighter I like, but his slob trainer and Arum are now into the dollars instead of building to make the dollars. I hope Abraham kills you Pav fans dreams. If people saw PAv beat Abraham, they would love PAv. AA is going to knock Pav out, and his trainer knows it.Last edited by Chase8400; 07-18-2008, 09:37 AM.

That makes your word credible.................not.
The judges thought he won, and they were recorded as wins. So I say if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and sounds like a duck. It must be a ****in duck. Get over it. You probably thought he won against Calzaghe and Jones too , huh? Let me ask you this: Did he win his pro debut too? LOL
