One white boy beat Hopkins, can Pavlik be the 2nd?

[MUCSteelers5xSuperChamp]

I'm glad that I'm not the son of the 43-year-old Hopkins...I'd hate to write "I will never lose to a white boy" 100 times if I did lose to such a boy.

He'll have a chance to make amends against Youngstown's hero...the heart and soul of Youngstown, Ohio, Kelly Pavlik.

Pavlik might be to youthful and powerful for Hopkins. Hopkins tries to win fights these days counter punching---problem is Pavlik throws ALL DAY! However, you never know if the 43 year old BH is showing up or the enegized boxer that is hungry. BH was vicious until he started getting those big money fights. Money does make some smarter to fight longer----I guess.

Jones Jr./Calcache will also be a great fight. If Roy throws punches and uses his speed he can and get back to his championship ways.

monte81,

The Calzaghe-Jones fight was just cancelled. It's now being slated for November.

Pavlik will have his work cut out against the mighty Philadelphian. Going up to light heavyweight...if Pavlik can win, he will be a two-time champion. But Hopkins will be Hopkins, fighting tough and using street and prison tactics to unglue the opposition.
