At first I was a lil disappointed at Kelly for getting in the ring with Hopkins due to his age.

I was hoping that he would fight more hungry fighters like Abraham. However, after really watching the Calzaghe fight numerous times I wouldnt mind seeign Kelly go at it with B-Hop.

I wouldve liked to see BHop win but when I scored the fight I had Calzaghe winning once he started aggressing the fight. I dont know what type of Game plan Kelly is going to come out with but I can see it going 12 rounds and somebody definitely going down.

Bernard doesnt have the stamina to **** with Kelly which I think will be the determining factor in a Pavlik 12 round decision. BHop still has good KO power behind the punches and every time Calzaghe and him went toe to toe I always had Bhop winning the exchange. Rigth after that Bhop would seem drained and clinch.

Unless he plans the fight right I cant see him winning unless he gets a lucky KO

he hasn't been in any real bloodbaths, but he has made most all of his opponents bleed while hopkins himself I don't think has ever bled before in his career.

Calzaghe - bloody/split nose
Winky - nasty cut over eye
Tarver - bloody mouth
Taylor - bleeding in one of the fights, I think the first

Pavlik will be bleeding during the fight, probably a nosebleed, but he'll win a tough, hard-earned fight vs. Bernard. Surprised Bernard hasn't played the "white boy" card like he did against Calzaghe.

Bernard Hopkins: “Kelly Pavlik Fight Will Be a Bloodbath”



Yeah I here it is going to be exactly like Ward-Gatti 1!!!

Not!

Gotta hand it to Bernard though, He is a good salesman.

[WESS]

BLOODBATH???? lol Hopkins had a lot to say. Especially about Pav. He really respects him, why wouldn't he though. I understand why he didn't have any for little joey. Pav is more of a THREAT due to his power (90% KO's) and work rate. I think Hopkins respects this and is coming to this fight prepared for it. I don't want Hop to get the "L" but then again I want Pav to win.

What Hop explained about Joe is the exact reason why Glass jaw old man Jones is going to fight Calzaghe. You cant be afraid of getting hurt if the guy throws "PITY PAT PUNCHES" IN BUNCHES ("plays tag"). Remember bitches, Jones is a serious counter puncher even today. If jones has his legs and moves, he wins. Simple as that.

IMO, I think PAV will win a close UD. You know what people will say right? PAV's UD is better than little JOEY's SD. I actually don't see this being that "UGLY" of a fight. I think PAV's power will force HOP to fight more. Joe's little ***** punches wouldn't cause a school girl to cry now a days. HOP will be forced into a fight with PAV. I would be SHOCKED if PAV ko's HOP. But either way the very young and rising star IMO will win a UD.

HOP is a legend and HOF'er who is right when he says NO ONE has hurt him, cut him, or knock him out. Who can say that after 50 something fights? I give HOP and PAV respect. I personally think it will be MUCH more of an entertaining fight than HOP VS Calzaghe. Calzaghe had nothing and brought nothing to the fight but a bunch of UN NECESSARY TOUCHES that wins gold medals in the Olympics.

Like 43 year OLD GRANDPA HOP said nothing Joe threw really landed and they were pity pat punches. He was right and I have no fear for Jones what so ever come November.

Also what ******s keep saying that HOP WASN'T HIT LOW when Joe came out and SAID I HIT HIM LOW.

Calzaghe said: “When I hit him there in the second round, that was proper deliberate. He’d knocked me down in the first so I had to give him a dig, didn’t I?”

What makes you think he didn't hit him low again in the 10th???? I've never seen HOP fake **** like that. Get outta here with that british bull****! Joe said it himself.

[fightnews55]

I think Bernard just keeps fighting because he doesn't want to be around his wife!

[rizkybizness]

Bernard is full of feces.
