Pavlik (37-2, 32 KOs) will meet Cunningham (23-2, 10 KOs) in a 10-round super middleweight bout.
This marks Pavlik’s first fight in Youngstown since December, 2009 where he knocked out Miguel Espino in the fifth round at YSU to retain his middleweight title. He defeated Marco Antonio Rubio in February, 2009, at the Covelli Centre.
Cunningham, of Detroit, enters the fight riding a three-year, 16-bout winning streak.

It is is expected to be a tune-up for a November showdown with IBF super middleweight champ Lucian Bute.

Does a couple free beers come with the ticket?
What a pathetic attempt to make this kid some money off of faithful Mahoning Vallay fans. It's obvious he still has a drinking problem and needs help.
Where can we get tickets to the pavlik vs. pavlik fight?
Lololol
I think it is great how people are posting negative comments. When Kelly was on top of his game, he was loved. Now because he has had some issues, the loyal Youngstown folks are ready to throw him to the wolves. Typical.
i really hope that the negative know it alls stay home and don't show..but i bet there pathetic buts will be there. typical youngstowns hillbillies believing everything they hear
Louie, thanks for having my back. Just like the rest of Y-Town should have Kelly's back.
Yes and there are always a couple suckers like louie and nascar that do not understand that this clown is just a drunk and nothing more. And no, after this last episode a lot less butts will be in the seats.
Hell, you should be able to get ringside!
..... said it once and I will say it again .
No thanks Pavlik
Think I would rather watch bum fights on U-TUBE....
I would have more respect for the guy if he would finally admit he has a problem....don't give me crap about jumping on a guy when he's down,...are the people supposed to back a drunk????
