    How CRAZY would it be if Hopkins started training Kelly?

    I think that would work out great.


    Thoughts? (Please vote!)



    On a side note,
    I thought it was funny how when Hops was coaching Kelly after the fight, it looked like a son talking to his son. Kelly even said "yes sir".

    PLEASE NOTE!
    I am not suggesting for Pavlik to emulate Hopkins. We all know he doesnt have the hand speed and/or "slickness".

    Would be a waste of time. Kelly does't have the kind of natural talent that Hopkins does.

        They are also completely different personality and background wise, and wouldn't likely connect with each other which is important.

          Well Pavlik and Loew get along but that obviously isnt the best for Kelly, now is it?

            Btw, I do believe they will have a great connection.

              I believe that pavlik has show his potential already, It is my opinion that he can't really improve very much if at all from what he has already shown.

              For what he is capable of, I believe he is as polished as he can get. So any other trainer wouldn't benefit him.

              Thats my opinion.

                I actually thought the same thing when Hopkins was giving his speech to Pavlik after the fight, I don't know how well it would work but I think Hopkins should try his hand at training after he retires, he has a lot of knowledge about the sport and knows how to point out a fighters' weaknesses but I doubt he becomes a trainer, he's made more than enough money to have to take on that responsibility.

                  Hopkins would be a good trainer to everyone, but Kelly lacks the physical abilities to fight his style.

                    B-Hop will alwayz be around boxing. He lovez the sport so it wouldn't surprise me if he became a trainer. I'm 100% sure B-Hop would turn Pavlik into a machine

                    It'll be funny watching Pavlik throw straight right handz with his head down
