    This guy has me convinced.

    I disagree with him about Joe not winning any of the first 8 round against B-hops though that's just silly.

    But it's true Kelly Pavlik ain't no Joe Calzaghe, Calzaghe is a wily old veteran who shortened his punches up midway through the fight just to get through on Hopkins and went through plans A,B,C to edge it. Pavlik is a wrecking ball.

      Does anyone know who's on the undercard for the Pavlik fight?

      I just want to see an exciting fight. But i'm pulling for Pavlik to win.
      I like B-Hop though. I just think that it's time for the young people to step up in the game.

      But i'm down for the older fighters as well. Shiiit, i am an old fighter.

        hot middleweight prospect, nyc-native danny jacobs (10-0) will be facing someone (likely a tomato can) and could also end up on jones/calzaghe undercard. he won the open golden gloves at 165 a few times.

        also this from espn....

        "The rest of next Saturday's undercard includes Steven Luevano defending his featherweight belt against Australia's Billy Dib and Mexican middleweights Marco Antonio Rubio and Enrique Ornelas squaring off in a title eliminator.
        "

            I agree. I respect his opinion but I don't think there is anyway Hopkins won the first 8 rounds, and I'm obviously a big Hopkins fan.

            I'm not totally sold on Pavlik yet and I think it could be exposed that he's not the fighter that many thinks he is. Thus far as faced the right type of opposition for his style so I'm curious to see how he matches with someone who brings the type of craftiness of Hopkins or Calzaghe . It's a just a question of how old Hopkins will be in there. Don't get me wrong, he's a good fighter but I'm not convinced that's a great fighter yet. If I'm wrong I'll give him his due credit.

              after watching the b-hop weigh-in, I am more hype than ever. **** these white supremacists. they boo the Executioner, they boo phily, wtf?!? no respect for a legend. i hope b-hop puts kelly to sleep and sends these mother****ers back to ohio where they can **** up another election.

              "Bullseye Ghost." " I play darts, yay" Could these lanky white boy be any cornier? 1. 1-2. oh no, look out.... 1-1-2. Gosh. How will B-Hop ever figure this guy out?!?
