    I'm not sure he got exposed but some of his limitations were shown up- ie, his mediocre handspeed, average footwork.

    I'm a fan and always will be. He's got heart, power (at 160, excellent power), chin and is still the best at 160. But he got schooled by a technically brilliant fighter, a freak of nature.

      Good post, Pavlik is the best mw in the world at the moment, he took a big risk moving up in weight to fight an opponent who no one loooks good against. (He may have moved up for the wrong reason but with abraham already matched and his last defense against Lockett he didn't have much choice).

      It didn't work out for him but he has lots of time to sort out his problems. I hope people don't criticise too much. Even though I am not a fan I respect someone who takes a risk.

      A pioneer is only a person whos' risk paid off,
      I agree, people have to respect him for taking that risk of moving up and fighting a man who is a terrible styles matchup for him, he's only 26, there's plenty of time for him to work on his flaws.

                Bull****, He Took The Fight For Money. The P-dubb Fight Was In The Works, And He Went The Other For The Bread. He Get No Props For Taking The Fight. He Thought He Had An Easy Victory With He Biggest Payday. He Was Wrong, And So Was His Advisers. The Dumbasses Who Thought Kelly Would Knock Bernard Out. He Was Exposed, Exposed, Exposed For His Fundamental Flaws, Exposed For His Train Of Thought.

                If Benard Was 10 Years Younger He Would Have Knocked Him Out, At Middleweight.

                  I think we've always known Kelly wasn't the most athletic guy and slow. It was just that all the guys that fought him before tonight didn't take advantage of that. Bernard is crafty and smart as hell when it comes to fighting. He knew exactly what he had to do to win. His footwork made Kelly look uncordinated out there and he totally nuetralized Kelly's right hand. I mean who would have thought that he would would outworked Pavlik and because Kelly was so confused he couldn't get off with his usual amount of punches. It was just a remarkable performance by BHop tonight. I don't know if there is very many guys that could beat him the way he fought tonight. I think we've always known what Kelly was a tough big puncher with a high workrate that was slow.

                    Give him credit? All I heard was about he was going to be the first guy to KO Bernard Hopkins.

                    Pavlik was god awful, he didn't land ONE, not one flush shot.

                      The thing that has people questioning Pavlik is the fact that he was able to do absolutely nothing. Great fighters don't lose basically 12 rounds to nothing in such a fashion against anyone - he clearly has a long way to grow to be great.
