Pavlik = worst middleweight championship reign ever?

[Blue Heffner]

Yeah, Kelly's reign was just horrible. Now all I'd like to see is someone get in Sturm's ass.

Totally agree with this thread.
Pavlik after winning the Middleweight championship was another fighter. He lost something...he didn't fight with the same will and courage as when he was a contender. Maybe losing the title is the best that could have happen to him, and now he will come back fighting the way that made him become the Middleweight champ.
Good luck for him on his return, and Martinez is amazing. After the Williams fight i totally became a fan and he deserved this title. Hope there is a remtach with Williams and hope he can beat him this time. Wow...the first fight was amazing, and on the rematch i don't expect anything less.

For the few guys saying Pavlik had a better reign than Tyler, I think you need to reevaluate what you want to see in boxing.

Because if you think Pavlik did better, then you're basically saying you don't care who a guy fights as long as he knocks them out. Pavlik fought three of the biggest bum opponents I've ever seen a guy defend his belt against. Gary Lockett? WTF! None of us had heard of him before that fight except for the Brittish fans. Marco Antonio Rubio? The guy Ouma dominated back in like 2005 and had been living on the lowest rung of Bob Arum cards for the past couple years? Miguel Espino? WTF! I STILL don't know who he is.

How can any of those guys compare to world champions Kassim Ouma and Cory Spinks? How can either compare top pound for pound guys Winky Wright and Bernard Hopkins?

You've GOT to be kidding me.

I'm a Pavlik fan but I have to admit his reign as champion was very disappointing.

Agreed 100%.

JT's reign may not have been that great or overly convincing, but it is clearly on a different planet to Kelly's.

Agreed....Pavlik KO'd Taylor and did nothing after that.
