    I think Kelly is going to put more sustained pressure on Bhop than anyone has in a long time and Hopkins dont have the power to keep Pavlik at bay , I believe Pavlik will go after him with power shots the whole fight and I dont see them all missing especially as the fight progresses , from the 7th on Bernard will know he is 43 , Kelly to finish over the top of him and get a late stoppage sending Bhop into retirement .

      I don't know if Kelly's got the smarts to pull this one out. Hopkins will make it ugly.

        If Bernard couldnt school Taylor then I dont think an older Hopkins can school Pavlik..who has more stamina than Taylor.

          Kelly's workrate will be the key to win wide UD.

            thats how I scored it to....114-113 Hopkins!

              work rate doesn't bother B-Hop! SPEED does......

              Roy Jones Jr., Jermaine Taylor and Joe Calzaghe all have fast hands.....

                  i think pavlik would win the same way taylor won. by just being the busier fighter. unless hopkins can completely take pavlik outta his rhythm, pavlik will win by decision. not because hes gonna beat Hopkins up its just that judges will see that pavlik is busier and landing harder shots.

                    HAHA FAT YANKS IN CONTRADICTION SHOCK HORROR!!! READ ALL ABOUT IT!!

                    The same yanks who had a go at Joe for winning ugly against an old man and again for "ducking" the superior Pavlik are now saying Pavlik cant beat Hopkins

                    CONTRADICTION
                    –noun
                    1. the act of contradicting; gainsaying or opposition.
                    2. assertion of the contrary or opposite; denial.
                    3. a statement or proposition that contradicts or denies another or itself and is logically incongruous.
                    4. direct opposition between things compared; inconsistency.
                    5. a contradictory act, fact, etc.

                    I love you yanks, i swear i got more smarts than an entire state, any of em.

                      He can do it, he's the underdog once again and this guy can bring an upset. But like it's been said, the only thing Hopkins is lacking is stamina. It's because of his age. If he has that, like in his prime, he WOULD school every other fighter out there. He's that good.
