April 16, 2010. The Weigh-In.


The weigh-in was a loud affair with about 500 in attendance. Challenger Sergio Martinez weighed 159.5 pounds and the Champion Kelly Pavlik also weighed 159.5 pounds. Martinez seemed jovial and played along with the "Kelly, Kelly, Kelly!" chants. It was an affair of loudness and stare downs and words and gestures of dominance, but tomorrow there is no pretense. There is a fight.

March 13, 2010. Martinez says he will Knock Out Kelly Pavlik.



Martinez's confidence is soaring high after a controversial loss that many, including Pavlik, believe he won 115-113 against Paul Wiliams. Sergio Martinez is one of the craftiest fighters in the game and he utilizes the south paw stance with movement and quickness that has foiled many of the top fighters from welterweight to Middleweight. On March 13 he and Pavlik met in Dallas Texas to announce their clash on April 17 in Atlantic City. Martinez showed no reservation in declaring that he will Knock Out Kelly Pavlik. Perhaps Martinez is counting on Pavlik still suffering the effects of a near fatal staph infection that plagued him for much of 2009. Or perhaps Martinez honestly believes he can beat Kelly Pavlik at his best. In either case, the talk ends on April 17. They meet in Atlantic City as Kelly Pavlik will defend the Universally Recognized MiddleWeight Championship of the World against the BEST Middleweight contender on the Planet.

March 7, 2010. Mill Creek Run.

After running his usual 6 minute mile pace in the Mill Creek Run, Pavlik stopped to take a photo with a couple of fans. Somehow his number ended up becoming a hat. In any case, Pavlik takes the opportunity to participate in similar types of events whether for charity or simply to support city activities. It's his way of combining training while enjoying events in the city he loves.

February 28, 2010. Martinez to Challenge for Pavlik's Crown.

Sergio Martinez reigns as junior Middleweight Champion of the World. He's one of the craftiest boxers in the game. He has 44 wins 2 draws & 2 losses. One loss to Paul Williams in a December bout that many people believe that Martinez won 115-113. It was a one of the best Fights of 2009 where both fighters picked themselves up off the canvas. And the other loss is to Antonio Margarito 10 years ago. After Margarito's suspension last year for the use of plaster of paris in his hand wraps, any and all of his victories are in question. Also on Martinez's resume is a draw to the highly touted Kermit Cintron in a fight in which Cintron was counted out following a devastating punch that was oddly perceived as a headbutt by officials allowing him to continue on to a draw in a fight that many had Martinez winning by 3 or 4 rounds. In a nutshell, Martinez is a veteran fighter with one of the strongest records and resumes in the game. Many boxing insiders believe he is THE best contender to challenge for the Universally Recognized MiddleWeight Title. Kelly Pavlik wouldn't have it any other way. Pavlik has taken care of the WBC and WBO manadatories and now it's time for him to fight a big name. Martinez is exactly that.
