Comments Thread For: Pavlik's Decision Not Official, Martinez Rematch Still There

[HitmanHattonAY]

i hop the rematch does happen so we will have:

Pavlik Vs Martinez 2

Williams Vs Margarito

What exactly is your problem with Pavlik?

Martinez vs. Pavlik II is a waste.

[la pantera]

Pavlik is ****ed! if he moves up Bute is there waiting...if he stays at MW Martinez is there...I think he has a better shot fighting Paul Williams but IMO he still loses.

Senile Merchant said Pavlik drained 11-12 pounds in the 24 hours before the weigh in.

How is that physically possible?

its actually not unheard of to lose that much in a day. it is incredibly draining on your body though. you have to be an elite athlete to be able to perform after a drop like that. not saying its an excuse on pavliks part though.

i think he should move up to supermiddle if he really is having that much trouble making weight. there are still some middleweight fights out there for him. sturm or sylvester if he's willing to travel to europe. i dont think he can compete with the elite supermiddleweights, but he would make some entertaining fights with some of them at least. pavlik was never truly elite in my opinion, but he still has some fights left in him.

he should have never fought Bernard Hopkins thats where he ****ed up

he should have never fought Bernard Hopkins thats where he ****ed up

it really does seem like he's been lost since then

[starjammer]

Pavlik's team should have written into the contract that if Martinez won, a rematch would take place at 164. Same thing Jermain did when he fought Pavlik.

Seems Pavlik's team don't have the foresight or professionalism in some cases (that cutman debacle).
