    Pavlik wants a Hopkins rematch

    On today’s Steve Bunce Boxing Hour show, Kelly Pavlik’s trainer revealed that Pavlik is interested in fighting a rematch against Bernard Hopkins, but that if the fight takes place, it will have to be at 160 and not 170 or 175. Last time, Pavlik had to put on 10 pounds and move up to 170, which left him slow and lethargic at that weight. Hopkins, used to fighting at 175, easily took off the extra five pounds and ended up giving Pavlik a real licking, beating him soundly by a 12-round unanimous decision.

    Old news, but I don't think it has been reported here

    edit: I think it is a very bad idea

      Hahahahahaha this must be a joke right? Nah I think someone proberbly just asked Pavlik if he would rematch Hopkins and of course he wasnt gonna say "No way, He would school me again". So he said he would fight him at 160? lol. Bernard would have to kill himself to make that weight again

        Lol, considering how bad Hopkins looked in his last fight Pavlik should have the balls to at least rematch him at 175.

          after seeing his poor performance against jones i guess he thinks nows the time to get revenge

          as much as i want to give hopkins credit for the pavlik win kelly didn't look right at all that night dont get me wrong he got schooled (i remember seeing it live on setanta i was like wtf) but how it was so one sided baffles me everytime i watch it especially after seeing his performance against jones the other week

          he didn't look great against winky or calzaghe either maybe he really did turn the clock back just for one night

            He wants it at 160 lbs, Hopkins cant make that weight anymore.
