Good evening Youngstowners', Dan Birmingham from St Petersburg, Florida. I am honored that the Vindicator and my friend John Basseti has asked me to do a round by round blog of Kelly Pavlik's first defense, against Gary Lockett of the UK. Kelly has had much tougher opposition and has superior boxing skills. I am also, like everybody else, picking my fellow Youngstowner to win in spectactular fashion inside five rounds.
I understand that boxing has become big business and that it is all about which fight brings in the most money. That being said, pride, respect, and a legacy go along way too. Kelly has said that he wants to unify the middleweight title: “Other people recognize me as the undisputed middleweight champ, but I do want those other belts." I think that Pavlik should do the fans a favor and get those other belts even if it doesn't make the best business sense. I have been waiting for someone like Kelly for many years, a true champion that I could rally behind, and the fact that he is from my home state of Ohio makes it all the sweeter. I hope he finishes the job at Middleweight and unifies the title. Then he can go on to beat everyone else in any weight class he chooses. Go get 'em Kelly!!
Let's all hope he get the KO to show that Hopkins that acting all tough and all means nothing,in the ring is what it all occurs.
is hopkins going to fight pavlik again?and if he does is it going to be for the title this time?
We still love Kelly!!!!!!!!!! Great for Y-Town
