Comments Thread For: Pavlik: It’s A Golden Opportunity To Be Back On HBO

[GattiFan]

You can call the matchup whatever you want. Clearly you need to try and see this from Pavlik's perspective.

This is fight number three of a COMEBACK ATTEMPT after walkng off a fight card the WEEK OF THE FIGHT.

If HBO called Kelly and said "We want you to fight a blind autistic 53 year old, and we are only going to pay you a dollar" Kelly Pavlik acts THRILLED and is nothing but thankful for the opportunity to be back on the network.

Try to understand, this man was thought to have killed himself as far as ever fighting on a network was concerned.

HBO or Showtime say Jump: Pavlik says "how high boss?"

Anyone thats EVER been close to the fight game has the EXACT same answer.

Its the difference between fighting for enough money to survive while having a second job at the same time

vs fighting for real money, real name recognition, and real results in your career.

It may be a bum, but its the bum HBO wants you to fight. Break this club fighters face and secure the future for your kids. Its not even a tough question.

Rosinsky is the bottom of the barrel boxing wise for Pavlik. Beating a bum like Rosinsky sets Pavlik back and gains him zero. Beating Rosinsky is like beating up a girl for Pavlik. terrible embarrassing fight for Pavlik against Rosie Rosinsky.

White Knight def must have something personal against Rosinsky......for a guy he calls a bum, a club fighter, a girl...... anytime and everytime Rosinskys name is mentioned, he's hooting and hollering....I guess we all missed the last time white knight fought on HBO!!!!

Great post. Well said.

However, reason is an uphill battle around here sometimes.

Hope Will pulls the upset but wouldn't be suprised if Pavlik wins...
