Mystery Disease Kills Thousands
Gay Marriage Vote Puts Heat On Christie
Kelly Pavlik, boxing's world middleweight champion, is moving up in weight class to fight light heavyweight Bernard Hopkins on Saturday night. To get ready for one of the toughest tests of the undefeated Pavlik's career, he's sparring with Byron Mitchell, a guy who has a 25-4-1 career record and a very similar style to Hopkins.
"I've always been compared to Hopkins," Mitchell tells the Cleveland Plain Dealer. "Kelly is a lot stronger than he looks. I've tried some of those tricks."
Those tricks include hitting in the clinch, clashing thighs and using the shoulders and elbows to butt Pavlik. From what I've seen of Mitchell, he's the right sparring partner to get Pavlik ready for fighting Hopkins, who has a knack for fouling without getting a point deducted.
We'll be live blogging the Hopkins-Pavlik fight on Saturday night here at FanHouse.
