Kelly Pavlik was a "slick boxer" in the amatures?

I haven't seen his amateur fights but i know he does use allot of leverage in his straight right hands and his power has allot to do with that. He has more good solid punches but the straight right hand with all that leverage using his feet and upper body rotation to maximize it, is his money maker punch. No one is punching better in the division that's for sure.

They actually thought because he had such little power, he probably wouldn't make it that far in the pros. Then, one day when Pavlik was 17 he said he started knocking people out in sparring. It literally happened over night. From there on out he knocked everyone out.
that's funny to me.
True story. Fo real.
Seriously.
