Comments Thread For: Kelly Pavlik Waives Sergio Martinez Rematch, Moving Up

[Portman]

Go on Pavlik, move up! When Pac gets up to 168 you won't be able to duck him and he will KO your bum ass for ducking Martinez.

... Doing A-side meth?

Kelly moving to 168.. Not too sure whether that's a smart move on his behalf.. I guess we'll find out

[Sweet Jesus]

None of the 168 Pounders int he tourney should fight him. Remember how he was popping off the Tourney.

Should Pac not fight Floyd because Floyd was popping off Pac?

Different circumstances. Pavlik played high and mighty and made fun of all the Super 6 members for fighting for "peanuts" and now hes crawling up to that very division. The irony in that is bliss.

Im not sure how Pavlik is a ***** for not doing a rematch? guy gained about 20 pounds or so from weigh in to fight night and clearly had trouble making weight. Plus he is moving up to a division which is far more stacked and he losses his main strengths i.e his size/strength

[amayseng]

retire kelly

why? because he is growing into his frame?

why do people hate him so much?

he won the middleweight title from a guy who beat a legendary bhop two times.

of course i gave that first match to bhop, but nonetheless he whipped taylor and honestly ruined him in that first fight.

why does a fighter have to retire? because he loses two fights?

so what

he is young, he still has some good fights in him

i agree, its not because he is scared or got knocked the **** out.

he is growing into his frame. the dude is six foot two for *** sake

im tired of people hating on this guy, he has done nothing wrong, so what

he lost two fights.

he also won the mw title, something beyond any of us will ever do.

he will be a contender at 168, he could easily beat froch, kessler and would give abraham a run for his money, in fact he would knock abraham out, AA does not have the combination, boxing ability or reach to deal with pavliks jab and right hand

there, 3 guys he could and should beat.
add alan green and that makes 4 fighters he could take out

i wouldn't recommend kelly pavlik retire but i would recommend he work on his ground and pound game. lol!

kelly's best bet was 160. he's got nothing coming at 168. lucian bute will brutalize him and i'd take just about every super six member to beat him as well.

the ufc is calling kelly pav.

Good decision!!! Either go to 175 or try out at 168, He seem to be draining himself too much at 160.

do you watch boxing?

do you think froch would beat kelly? froch, no skill no fundamentals, no coordination, no defense? are you kidding?

what about kessler? who has obviously slowed down, eats right hands for breakfast, doesnt have his legs anymore, but beat froch?

what bout AA, who just stalks and gives up rounds and knocked knocked down and peppered for 10 rounds or however many by a dirrel who is not a power puncher?

what about add alan greene who is inconsistent?


think before you write.

pavlik will prosper at 168, cutting 20 lbs is not healthy.

[xxjace]

Wow... Sergio is the undisputed MW champ... doesn't have to rematch Pavlik.

He is allowed to do as he pleases, fight whoever he wants to fight.

I'm happy as hell for him, he deserves it!

yes he does great fighter..very happy for him he does deserve it.
