Round 8

Pavlik lands huge right with a minute left and Rubio in trouble. He fights back, but Pavlik landed some of his best shots of the fight, backing Rubio into the corner.

Pavlik is staying patient but he smells blood.

Rubio has got a lot of heart but I don't know how much he has left in his legs.

Give Rubio credit. Most fighters would have been knocked down by now.
