How the **** was Jermain Taylor a "club fighter". He was the MW champ who got his title by beating the very man that supposedly revealed Pavlik to be a bum!
Hopefully, you are just being sarcastic.
I was indeed being sarcastic
Pavlik is one of boxings most exciting fighters, its just stepping up about 10lbs in weight against a legend proved too much of a gamble for him in the end. He probably needs a few more Lockett type opponents now to get his belief and confidence back because he looked like he was going to cry after that loss at the end.
You should tet the hell off the forums. Your posts are ****. You've only ever seen one Calzaghe fight, obviously, and that was against arguably the trickiest opponent on the planet to look good against.
Pavlik is just a young guy doing his thing. At least he has the balls to step into a ring with Hopkins. Would you?
Hopkins himself has mad respect for Kelly. So why shouldn't everyone else?
F-R-K-O - I got the impression during the fight that Bernard could have stopped Pavlik, but didn't out of respect. Did you think he was carrying him and just trying to teach him a lesson?

Funny you should mention it, yes, during the fight I found myself thinking exactly that -- if Hops upped his work rate another notch he could have had Kelly out of there easily. I ended up thinking he probably just wanted to put on a clinic. Pavlik's chin surprised me, he can take a shot (or lots of good shots) better than I thought.
