Pavlik on the rag about the SMW tourney

[denboy]

Pathetic comments from Pavlik.....

I hope other fighters and promoters will at least acknowledge what a great idea and event this tournament will be, regardless of their exclusion from it.

Why does it always happen to the guys with the least skill

Maybe they never thought they were good enough to get where they have got, and now because they have got their on limited ability their ego has grown wildly out of control.

damn, thats an excellent observation.

Every time I read his comments I'm amazed by how much he sounds like some little punk kid who's trying to make everyone, including himself, believe that he is OK with not getting invited to the party with the cool kids because he is waiting on an invitation to this OTHER party with even COOLER kids.

And not only that, but the party he didn't get invited to is gonna suck and everyone is gonna regret going.

What a loser.

He has certainly lost touch with reality. He considers himself a top 5 attraction? Maybe in Youngstown.

Looks like the money has gone to his head. Or the people around him have brainwashed him. He certainly does not come across as humble like he used to.

Ive always been a Pavlik supporter, but man...I dont know now. That is some classless **** to say.

damn, thats an excellent observation.

Waits for someone to say that Ricky does have skill and head movement

What was so bad about what Pavlik said? He just wants to get paid as he and every other boxer should. Boxing is the only sport left that the athletes dont get the proper percentage of what their worth. I say this because not to long ago basketball, football and baseball players were getting "peanuts" while these GM's and everyone else were getting rich. They guys who do lay their body on the line are the ones who get screwed, and I'm tired of hearing about boxers (who made the sport) broke and **** outta luck.

So to hear Pavlik, Floyd and others want big money...I tip my hat to them and support their effort.

Same here. Pretty ****ty things to say, overall.

I'm not sure what he's thinking. Or what the hell is in store for his career. If he's holding out to make 5-10 million a fight, he may as well retire now.

Might get flamed, but what the heck.

He has a point. Here is why i think this Tourny is going to wreck atleast one of the careers of the 6

This Tourny is make or break for them. Obviously it is going to be hyped up heavily since tournaments are rare in boxing.

The nly one i can remember is the one where Hopkins beat Trinidad.

1 Loss is all it takes for them to disappear. Look at that Previous Tournament: Holmes and Joppy disappeared of the radar after they lost. Those two were better than most of the guys in this SMW Tournament.

Of the 6 here, i get the feeling the non-finalists will disappear of the radar.

Who gives a ****? We want to decide who the best is, not feel sorry for the worst.
