    Hopkins wasn't coming in straight like most his other opponents. Hopkins didn't brawl him, he boxed him. Pavlik didn't have a still target to hit, Hopkins kept moving and keeping his distance and beating Pavlik to the punch. Pavlik isn't gonna throw punches if he knows Hopkins isn't in range to hit. That is just my assessment. I honestly didn't see what was different about Pavlik. he tried the same thing that he always tries and thats counter punching his opponents or giving them 1-2 or jab-jab punches when they would come in range. Hopkins was smart to keep his distance and move around the ring to prevent that from happening.

      I felt good in my hotel room. I felt good in the locker room. He was good tonight but that’s no excuse on my part. For me, it just turned into a bad night all around. I am just going back to the drawing board after this one.

      “Twice I was hurt,” Pavlik said. “He clipped me good two times.”

      Pavlik also admitted he got a ring education.

      I learned, I learned a lot. Now I’ve got to back to the drawing board to see why did this happen, how did this happen. It wasn’t the added weight because I felt good.”

        Hopkins took Pavlik to school.

        No Excuses.

          Your boy got worked. Get over it. I'm a Pavlik fan too, and I pretty much hate Hopkins on top of that. And even I'll admit that Pavlik was outclassed by the better man.

            You don't understand boxing. Clearly.

              What Kelly does in his next superfight would be crucial especially if he's facing a fighter effectively using the strategy that Bernard used to stump him, and frankly, in going by excuses and failing to give Bernard proper credit for his efforts, he fails to give proper attention in fixing the holes in his style and setting himself up for another major embarrassment.

              His trainer particularly sucks if he shares the same mindset Kelly is showing right now because it means he hasn't got a clue about why that fight turned out the way it did.

                  exactly my thoughts. There is a reason every single opponent bernard fights doesn't throw or land many punches. I mean, I hate compubox because it's unreliable, but according to them Calzaghe landed the most punches on bernard in his entire career. And that was 200 punches!

                  You can't constantly throw 90 punches a round if your man is not sitting right in front of you. Bernard simply doesn't do that, he has great lateral movement and he always creates distance and if people do get in close, he'll counter you with a right or clinch. It's simply not possible to throw 90 punches a round against bernard, it's impossible.

                      Pavlik's fans, and even Pavlik himself doesn't get that, "he didn't have anything," because Hopkins took everything away. Fighting's a lot easier when your opponent is backpedaling towards the corner.
