Pavlik's Father & Jack Loew Want Kelly Back in The Ring

[Brassangel]

He should just learn from his mistakes and move on. He's still a monster at 160 and will stay there because he's just not cut out for anything higher.

He will reign at 160 for a long time. Even B-Hop said that about him.

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.

That's the goal.

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.

B-Hop said that to him, too. This was an awkward style matchup, two weight classes above his own, and with poor preparation. Kelly can still be one of the best MW champions of all-time. Yes, I said it.

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.

Could someone link the clip of the end of the fight where Hopkins walked over to Pavlik and wove a beautiful line of encouragement for him? Pavlik wasn't overrated or "exposed" (I hate the proliferation of that term in sports, by the way), it was just a bad situation for him. It's like saying that Foreman was overrated for losing to Ali. The younger, brute champ losing to a sly old veteran because of extraneous circumstances.

Hopkins personally stated that Pavlik is a bad dude who can reign at 160 for a long time, and be one of the greatest.

I think all of this pound-for-pound nonsense is ruining fighters. What ever happened to reigning in a weight class?

Thats the ******. You can't teach white fighters to be black because they are not black. They have to work with what they got.

You can't teach a black person to be a chess champion, he just has to work with what hes got.

See what I'm saying?

Kelly is being his usual quiet self. IMO, I don't think he wants to drag this thing out and make more of the loss than it really was. Kelly has tasted his first sip of adversity and I think, given his hometown being in the same boat, he will power through it and continue to dominate the MW division. I've said it alot and alot here concur that when he moves up in weight, he should definitely consult some new trainers to add to Leow. Whatever happens, I think the Rubio fight being in Youngstown, will definitely get him mentally back in it to go out there and do it for his hometown fans.

Pavlik's ducking lebron.

He needs to get back in the ring ASAP. Otherwise he will just be another wasted talent.

winky wright comes to my mind.

winky wright comes to my mind.

Winky has/had the talent. What Winky seemingly is lacking lately, is the mindset that he is not what he used to be and can't expect those paychecks he used to get. Seemingly, he still feels he does and that's the reason Winky has been a nobody for the last, well, how long has it been? Aside from that, what has Winky done in his last 4 fights? Why does he think he deserves 7 figures? Your guess is as good as mine. Winky Wright is his own worst enemy if you ask me.
