I believe unlike most Bernard Hopkins fights, this will be an entertaining contest. Why ? Because Kelly Pavlik will make it that way. He is going to make Bernard Hopkins do something he used to be pretty good at...FIGHT !


Over the last several years Bernard has dictated the pace of his fights. He has waltzed and stalled. He has clinched and wrestled. He fought in measured flurries, in most cases doing enough to win or keep it close. Not this time...This time he will have to fight. Pavlik will come forward, every minute of every round. Methodical pressure but slowly and surely effective. Hopkins will fight back. His heart of a champion will make him. His pride will drive him. He will have to trade punches. He will have to absorb more punishment then he has in years.

As the fight progresses he will grow tired and weary. His heart and his pride will not save him.This night the torch will pass.
