    I don't think even Manny believes that.

    Hey Karl..

    My thoughts are that this is guraranteed FOTY. As you said...this is THE fight of the year.

    Taylor has alot of pride and would be very weary of Pavlik's power and skills...as such he'd be training like a mad man. With pavlik this is HIS opportunity to become a potential megastar, and with his youth and talent he's dangerous.

    No one is running in this fight, no one is giving up. This is war beyond war beyond war.

    This may even eclipse Corrales-Castillo.

    I agree, Sly.
    Kelly is going to have to survive some heavy incoming and will be hurt and rocked, but I think he just outguts Taylor and stops him late in a classic Dick Tiger vs. Gene Fullmer type of middleweight war.

    I'm not ready to give this fight the title of FOTY. I mean there are some real good scraps coming up. Hopefully though this fight is only the beginning to a great couple of months. However, if Taylor couldn't ko Ouma and Spinks there's no way in hell he ko's Pavlik. I'll Holla 5000
    Quoted from a professional fighter!

    I am always willing to go out on my shield; in your country, town, street etc. I was always the guy in football that was diving over the top during knell down or starting a fight. You heard Lenny "Baby it ain't over til its over!" On the other side fighters fight! So the corner or ref should step in; cause 99% fighters are "Ready to Die like Biggie".

    This will be a rugged fight with good exchanges, but don't expect Gatti - Ward. If it goes to the late rounds, Pavlik got a chance.
    A Haymaker is a punch. It is a wild swing with all the person's might to knock out the opponent. It is the most common punch in street fights. It is also used in boxing as a last resort. It packs enough power to break a man's jaw.

    Fighting on the internet is like running in the special Olympics... Even if you win, you are still retarded.

    Shit happens, Dawg. Oliver McCall couldn't stop Frank Bruno but he wiped out Lennox Lewis in 2 short rounds! How do you account for that?

    I'll Holla back :cool:

    Steward also said Hamed was the best featherweight of all time.

    Steward will orchestrate the destruction of this young upstart, Kelly Pavlik, who DARES to think he can dethrone the TRUE champ.

    Who does he think he is, this Pavlik Fella? Is he mad? He aint fighting no paper champ! He's fighting the real deal: the man who succeeded the Great Bernard Hopkins and won the throne with his own hand!

    The True Champ will show Pavlik what's up. Pavlik gonna learn...oh yeah..he gonna learn!! :cool:

    Hopkins gave the title away is more like it.

    Hopkins was weight drain for both of those fights...He looked like a skelaton even in the Oscar fight. I think Taylor proved he can beat that version of Bernard.

    Hopkins looked weight drained and dried out at middleweight for years and years. To have a significant size advantage in the ring means the world to Hopkins.

    Down, but not out!

    Whatever he looked, he often weighed in well below 160.

    And if you get to choose one indicator that a guy isn't a 'big' guy for the weight class, that's it.

    Bernard was jsut always carefull about staying around 160 when he fought at that weight. I think its obviouse he stayed at middleweight far too long and he has two losses to Jermain to prove it.
