I didn't see the Pavlik fight, but the articles that appeared in the local (Cleveland) paper were pretty bleak, describing him as just totally outclassed. I didn't follow the pre-fight discussion, but I know it was described by local radio people as a must-win fight for Pavlik. Don't know what will happen now. Did he have trouble making weight? Will he move up now?
Well, he seems like a decent kid. He has made a good amount of money and could live quite well in the Youngstown area off his earnings.
It was nice having an Ohio boy as the middleweight champeen of da woild.
