Description : Here we have an original HBO boxing PPV poster for the clash between the old & the new in Bernard Hopkins taking on the reigning Middleweight King In Kelly Pavlik. Broadwalk Hall. Atlantic City, USA. 18th October 2008.
2008 when Hopkins met middleweight champion Kelly Pavlik in a non-title fight at a catch-weight of 170 lbs. Fans and pundits alike felt that knockout king Kelly Pavlik would become the first man to knock Hopkins out........ Pavlik was a 4-1 betting favorite heading into the contest. On the night of the fight, Hopkins turned back the clock to produce a performance he claimed to be the best of his career winning a unanimous decision (117-109, 119-106, 118-108) over the undefeated Kelly Pavlik.......Such was the schooling handed out by Hopkins onto his young opponant that Pavlik's went into rapid decline & has since quit the sport........
