Kelly Pavlik (2007) vs Julio Cesar Chavez Jr

[T.Horton]

Back then, Pavlik had an amazing track record of not only beating guys down, but he stopped many guys who had never been stopped before, and ruined a good few of them.

the 2007 Pavlik was not a guy who you would want to go to war with.

you're right but he forced you into a war whether you wanted it or not.

you're right but he forced you into a war whether you wanted it or not.

I don't think he has that ability in him any more. Not just because of his bad habits, but because that fighting style takes a little bit from you every time you fight. That little bit you never get back.

Pavlik might had another good fight or two left in him, but I really do not expect to see him around (at least in contention) for more than another year.
