He was also out of his weight class and reportedly ill before the fight. We knew Pavlik was sort of one dimensional before the Hopkins fight, he just could not overcome his deficiencies that time around.
You people have the wrong idea of what exposed in this sport even means. Exposed is someone who has fought nothing but tomato cans, then as soon as they step up get beaten by someone that was supposed to be spoon fed to them. That is exposed.
Hatton and Pavlik just met up with ring masters. No shame in that.
Khan just got his chin busted, but I would not call him exposed just yet. If he goes nowhere beyond his current status you might call it exposed.
Lacy was sort of exposed because he also ran into a ring master, but also struggled with fighters he was supposed to beat afterward. That also though could be due to injury etc.Comment

Anyone who says Hatton or Pavlik were exposed is discrediting Pacman and Hopkins. It is called a game plan. Both fighters followed it perfectly. Ricky as well as Kelly proved themselves before they faced their worst nightmares in Manny and Bernard. In order to be exposed you have to accomplish nothing and be beaten by a nobody.
i view exposed as having your weakness or flaws shown on a grand stage, when prior they were not easily obvious, and it is a huge credit to hopkins... him and Nasim have come up with some masterful gameplans over the years....
but thats what it is... his gameplan exposed kelly's one dimensional style and exposed the fact that if you can counter a guy who doesnt do much more than double/triple jab, right hand combos.. then you can beat him....
but you guys both arent wrong, i guess i just view "exposed" a little differently!Comment

Does Margs count as being exposed by Shugs? I think to a certain extent it does, especially since he was being hyped as someone with a granite chin and an unbreakable resolve - and then gets whupped on by an old man without winning a round. Couple that with the plaster, and I reckon it's all worthy of being labelled as an exposure.
But then, deanrw's post makes a lot of sense too. I guess it's just the way you look at a loss.Comment

Prince Naseem is definitely up there. I never expected to see him get dealt with in such a commanding way. It was like watching Margarito without his plaster.Comment
