Other than that, we need guys to transcend the sport.
Kelly Pavlik has Youngstown on his back, guys coming up like Berto and Danny Jacobs....Danny Jacobs will be a special fighter mark my words.
A lot of these other guys like Paul Williams have great skills but really lack that "Mass Appeal", to get the casual fans talking.[/QUOTE]
Yeah I really couldn't see P-Will catching on to very many casual fans, as he's still seen as a Middleweight fighting at 147 by some additionally his style gets **** because he's been known to slap with his punches.
I'll have to agree on Pavlik though and add one thing .. he's very humble during all the interviews I've seen him in, and I really think that helps to build his profile .. as we are so used to the mindless **** talking that goes on in the sport .. discrediting of opponents, to smoking cigarettes at a press conference, the momma jokes .. etc
It's very refreshing to see Pavlik stay away from all that crap, and in the long run I think Pav wins out, because it makes him a rarity.
