Bout Summary

Kelly Pavlik scored a knockdown and won his fourth consecutive bout with a televised win over Will Rosinsky of New York. A considerable underdog, Rosinsky gave a solid account of himself despite a noticeable size disadvantage. He gave Pavlik trouble with his hand speed and movement and opened a large slit on Pavlik's left eyelid in Round 4 that streamed down the former-champion's face. Pavlik pressed forward for much of the fight and, despite being outworked at times, landed with the heavier punches to earn rounds on the judges' scorecards. The lone knockdown came in Round 2.
