Kelly Pavlik: "Miguel Espino Presents a Real Challenge"

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Kelly Pavlik says "Contender" star Miguel Espino will present a real challenge when they meet on December 19 in Youngstown, Ohio. Because of a lingering staph infection in his left hand, Pavlik has pulled out from multiple bouts over the last year; including a bout with Sergio Mora that was scheduled for the summer, and two scheduled dates with Paul Williams.

How much you wanna bet that after hearing all the criticism he pulls out of the Espino fight as well. Then people will be like "See it really is his hand".

LMAO....i really really like Kelly pavlike.....i think he is ver talented...dont get me wrong when i say he is a ***** for doing this....we all know now that he was just scared to figth paul....he saw the tape of PW and said "man hell nah"....**** outta here...***** move

I don't see what the problem is with Pavlik taking this fight. He said weeks ago that he wanted to fight PWill on the 19th instead of the 5th so his hand could have more time to heal. Team PWill said whatever and moved on. He's fighting Martinez because he didn't want to wait a few more weeks for Pavlik. Is Kelly supposed to sit on the sidelines forever? I don't get why people think Pavlik is scared of a welterweight who's unproven at 160. If Kelly doesn't mention Paul's name after the Espina fight then it's fair to rip him. If Paul would've agreed to the Dec. 19 date, he and Pavlik would be fighting. But he wanted to move on, so Pavlik now has no choice to move on.

^^^^^^^^^^^^true

I'm not gonna knock PWill for moving on either. The type of infection Pavlik has is very resistant to antibiotics so who knows if it will even clear up for the Espina fight. Have you seen pictures of his hand? It looks nasty. Hopefully they'll meet in 2010.

That photo is months old. We have no idea what the hand looks like now.

yea that **** looked ****ed up...we'll see tho..i still want top see that fight happen someday...that would be the only way PW can get his rep up...but imagine if he KOd Kelly, then hed really really be ducked..hed have to move up to 168 to get a fight

You dodged PW. bottom line, and if you didnt then you are a pathetic professional dropping out of the fight 2 times. i have never heard of anyone doing that before. you mislead your fans twice now thinking were gonna get to see a great fight vs williams and now your fighting another chump, i boxrec this guy, his last fight was at the playboy mansion, and of course he was on the contender and didnt win. way to go kelly !!!
keep up the good work, go get drunk and **** up up your hand, you disaster of a human being.... too harsh ?
