Did anyone see the Hearns kid's fight?
Last question: nope

First part: nope, Pavlik beats none of them unless he catches them with a lucky one which can happen. Hearns would have killed him. Leonard... he probably would have had no chance but might have lasted. Duran... He might beat Duran as a Middleweight. Duran might have walked right into a punch. Best chance against Duran. Hagler... no chance. I wonder if he could even hurt Hagler.

I also think Pavlik is ripe for the taking. Guys like Winky Wright, who are very slick and can punch hard enough to keep things honest, could beat him on decision. Pavlik will have plenty of takers. The 2nd round of that fight showed vulnerability.
And Pavlik is just straight ahead.

Default Great fight....

Pavlik, to have a thinner frame not ripped is somehow more imposing. He kept coming, backing Taylor up(which is when Taylor excelled punching off the ropes) but the constant pressure wore on him. Then when KP landing that crunching right, Taylor was toast, KP is all guts and a great finisher!

At the beginning of the post, I thought it was about Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Be careful tossing that best p4p around.
