This video disgusts me. Jack Lowe can eat a ****. He takes every thing away from Bernard pretty much. He blames the elbow injury, the weight, and even the classic "I was sick" excuse.
Let's look at what Kelly had to say about his elbow and weight before the fight.
About the elbow:
Dan Rafael: Kelly I read something in - I think it was in the Cleveland newspaper yesterday that you had some sort of arm injury or elbow bump or something. Could you just - I’m sure it’s nothing too serious or you wouldn’t be fighting the fight but can you just tell me a little bit about what happened with that and what’s the story with it?
Kelly Pavlik: Yeah, you know, with the local people, the media, you always say things and to a whole new level. We bumped it about maybe a month ago and had a little bruise on it but, you know, it was nothing that ice, you know, didn’t fix and, I mean, we’ve been sparring 8, 10 rounds getting ready to finish up this week or a 12 round and have had no problem with the elbow. It’s just, you know, people hear one little thing. It was a little leak, I hit it that day and that little leak turned into, you know, something big for a reporter to keep his job.
Dan Rafael: So it happened a month ago though is what you’re saying?
Kelly Pavlik: Yes.
Dan Rafael: Okay and what elbow was it?
Kelly Pavlik: Left.
Dan Rafael: But it’s not giving any problems right now?
Kelly Pavlik: No, not at all.

Michael David Smith: Kelly, you touched on it a minute ago but can you say specifically how much do you weigh right now and is it an issue at all for you that you’re moving up in a weight class?
Kelly Pavlik: No, not at all. I've been asked that question but if you go back and look at a couple of my fights, I mean, four years ago there were stoppages. The weight to me is not a big deal at all. Like I said earlier I have more energy, I have more snap to my punches, more bounce, and going in there, I mean, it's not an issue for me. My weight right now is about 171, 172 so we're right on top of it
