I'm not concerned at all with this Pavlik lose. I think moving up to 170 pounds didn't help him but just because a fighter loses soundly - one time - is no reason to write him off.
I love the falling off the bike analogy. Get up, wipe off your knees, and get back at it. Rubio is no slouch. I wouldn't mind seeing a "tune-up" in late December.
After Rubio, the next man up has to be Arthur Abraham! We the people, deserve it.
I want Kelly back in the ring! Come on Kelly chin up son! Losing to a ring legend is no disgrace, get your ass back down to 160 and prove that you are the world's best MW.
...I don't like the way he seems to be taking the loss though, he needs to move on.
Easy for YOU to say.
But that 1st loss is the hardest. You either go into denial or accept it.
Think of recent cases: Jermain Taylor, Ricky Hatton, Miguel Cotto, they're all going through the same thing. "Moving On" is a slow hard mental battle. They're won't all handle it the same way as if there's a formula.

I know it's a tough thing to deal with but he will have to move on if he wants to stay on top, lingering on the loss will just hold back his development as a fighter.
Hey Stewart"peeleft: Pavlik is the Middleweight Champion of the World, not just the WBC and WBO extortion rackets. If he doesn't get back in the gym, B-Hop is gonna come to Youngstown and drag him there.
Hope the lose dosen't effect Kelly to much mentalliy, 90% of the all time greats lost but its about how he come backs,Rubio is a good come back fight for him, a good solid challager a good record and someone who will stand and **** with Kelly, in front of his hometown crowd.
