I wish I could be there. If LeBron is there that's crazy. I heard some Ohio State football alums, Jim Tressel, Brady Quinn and other Cleveland Browns players will be in the crowd.

Cool **** man. It is great to see a boxing champion lift up an area like that. Youngstown is, and always will be a true fighting town.

I've lived Youngstown for 28 years I've never seen the area so excited for anything before! I bought a pavlik tee shirt from a company and he told me he owes everything to pavlik, he was days away from closing his doors then he started selling pavlik shirts and it saved his company! Team pavlik is getting the whole area involved in this fight. It's amazing. I heard lebron James is here along with many other famous people. I'll keep you updated. Just got a new iPhone so it will be easy haha

Sounds great. definitely post some pics in and around the arena.
