AL BERNSTEIN: MAY 7 ALSO BIG FOR PAVLIK,VASQUEZ JR.

While attention will certainly be focused on the Manny Pacquiao-Shane Mosley mega fight on May 7th, Al Bernstein says that two other boxers will have plenty at stake that night as well.

Bernstein, who will serve as analyst on the Showtime Pay per View telecast of that card, points out that Kelly Pavlik and Wilfredo Vasquez Jr. have important fights on the undercard that night. Pavlik, a former middleweight champ, returns after a layoff to move up to 168 pounds and take on undefeated Alfonso Lopez. Wilfredo Vsquez Jr. defends his WBO Super Bantamweight title against former flyweight champion Jorge Arce.

Pavlik has battled an alcohol problem, and has not fought for over a year.
