Pavlik and his manager Cameron Dunkin are citing rib injury

there have been reports that camp is in turmoil though and it has been going at a disastrous rate

I actually would too I like Kelly and wanted to see him comeback

plus....Rios is not in shape and just started sparring so the opponent will probably be soft

My exact sentiment.

Will Rios be able to make the weight on such short notice?
